Our job is not to “fix” anyone. Everyone makes choices; everyone evolves in their own way, at their own pace. If you are cultivating a life of inner connection and peace, there is no room to waste your precious energy on hate. Hate is a tether that keeps you stuck. So either let them go, or limit your time together. Take care to protect your peace, your freedom and your joy. You deserve nothing less… Drop a 🌈if you resonate…

You are imperfect… inevitably flawed. And you are beautiful. – Amy Bloom What if each perceived "failure" was a learning opportunity in disguise, that helped you progress faster and gain the wisdom of experience? What if you could look at the pressure of perfectionism as some antiquated constraint that you are no longer willing to entertain? Remember that you ALWAYS did the best you could with the information you had at hand. Be tender with that part of yourself that was trying to navigate through uncharted waters. Show yourself some compassion, kindness, and love. Forgiveness is the path to freedom. Drop a ❤️ if you are open to showing yourself a little more love. #projecthappiness #thoughtfulthursday #positivity #quoteoftheday #inspirationalquotes #wordsofwisdom #empowerment #instalove #love #choosehappiness #notetoself #happy #joy #instahappy #healthy #healthylifestyle #empower #motivation #inspirations #goals #wordstoliveby #wellness #mindbodysoul #mentalhealth #inspire #happiness #positivity

Even if people present themselves as on their game, on top of it, so “together,” don’t be taken in. Everyone has a story; everyone has faced the fire, in their own way. Be kind; leave your preconceptions at the door. Each and every person has faced challenges, and hopefully are on the way to moving through them; it makes humans human… (Also, everyone, for so many reasons, has their own timetable.) So, Invite conversation when you can - create a judgment free zone. Listen without the urgency to make your point. This is an underrated art, and it can open so many doors. Say YES if you agree… #projecthappiness #thoughtfulthursday #positivity #quoteoftheday #inspirationalquotes #wordsofwisdom #empowerment #instalove #love #choosehappiness #notetoself #happy #joy #instahappy #healthy #healthylifestyle #empower #motivation #inspirations #goals #wordstoliveby #wellness #mindbodysoul #mentalhealth #inspire #happiness #positivity

Whether in relationships with family, friends, or at work, how we show up says more about us than anyone else. Be true to what you stand for, whether in times of peace and comfort, or in times of stress and discord. I know - more easily said than done, but it is a north star, and as we attune to our inner truth, we can see the discord around us in a way that is less reactive. Recognize that people are in different places, and you do not have to be swept into a toxic soup. You are responsible for you. Be true to the best version of yourself, no matter the outcome of a situation. You may be surprised how you are less pulled into the “dramas” of life, and more grounded in navigating it, on your own terms. Room to breathe.

Perspective is everything. It creates the lens through which you see the world. If you can look through the lens of gratitude, and find the moments that gave you the strength to move forward, that is fuel to jumpstart your life. And when you focus on the moments that reveal your character and inner strength, that gives you a ticket to freedom. You are no longer tethered by self-doubt, bitterness or pain, but can look ahead to the dreams that resonate deeply within you. Consider: AWARENESS of what brought you here + GRATITUDE for having it grow you + HOPE for what is to come… Drop a ☀️ if you are ready for the brightness this perspective brings…

So much of life is not within our control, and the sooner we understand that the easier it will be. But there are a few things that are within our control, or let us say, we have choices on the way we deal with them. 1.How we respond to a challenging situation (sometimes the default is fight, flight, fear or fawn, we’re human and that’s OK) 2.How we interpret those situations (as the victim vs as someone who is learning from life, and growing stronger and more aware all the time). This is where choice and reframing come in. 3.How much we trust that life is guiding us, and that this is not a malicious universe, but one that when we attune to it, is here for us always. We may toggle between all of these, as we build new muscles, but it’s all a process. Be gentle with yourself. Where do you tend to find yourself? Remember where your power lies and choose it; that is within your control.

Have you ever felt that you just had to get out of the noise of life in order to reconnect with yourself? The external demands can be off the charts. Sometimes we just need to check in, and rest in stillness, simply to hear our heart. The good news is that your heart (or call it your inner GPS) is ALWAYS there, waiting patiently for you to tune in. Give your heart some attention - hear what it has to say - it will be the most wonderful reunion/communion. You will know that you are home.

You know when someone is genuinely interested in what you have to say. You also know when they are not. Going through the motions is pretty transparent. See situations as they are and choose to be with those who care about you, and you care about them too. You are both the lucky ones… Who comes to mind.

Happiness is personal. Your thoughts and emotions influence your states - it’s an inside job. But that’s not the whole story either. There’s no doubt that happiness is more sustainable when you’re fortunate enough to have the basic necessities of life, and the support to strive for what’s important to you. Not everyone does. But one thing is true all across the board. When you choose wisely, the people you welcome into your inner circle, the people you select to spend your time and invest your energy with, can elevate and amplify your happiness. In the middle of all the chaos it's easy to take for granted how important our loved ones are in giving our lives meaning. It’s also easy to become preoccupied with work, school, or any other aspect of life. Take time today to express your appreciation to the most important people in your world: those who bring you joy, encourage you, and who simply love you. Drop a 💕 and Tag your loved ones who "have your back" and add happiness to your life. #projecthappiness #freedomfriday #positivity #quoteoftheday #joy #inspirations #choosehappiness #mindbodysoul #mentalhealth #wordsofwisdom #wordstoliveby #notetoself #happy #wordstoliveby #healthy #healthylifestyle #empower #motivation #inspirationalquotes #wordsofwisdom #instahappy #inspirationalquotes #inspire #happiness #positivity

Nothing is static in life - it’s always changing, and growing. Same for us. Sometimes we grow at a different rate or in a different direction than others around us. That can be hard - they may want us to stay the same for their own comfort. We might hope that they can expand. But these things are not in our control. And that’s OK. Let go of the need to control and notice how things flow. Trust and stay open - you are right where you need to be… Drop a 💙if you resonate… #projecthappiness #freedomfriday #positivity #quoteoftheday #joy #inspirations #choosehappiness #mindbodysoul #mentalhealth #wordsofwisdom #wordstoliveby #notetoself #happy #wordstoliveby #healthy #healthylifestyle #empower #motivation #inspirationalquotes #wordsofwisdom #instahappy #inspirationalquotes #inspire #happiness #positivity

Confidence isn't about showing your superiority over others or claiming power. Knowing and accepting who you are without self-promotion is what true confidence is all about. An honest, balanced, awareness and acceptance of ALL your sides frees you from comparison. So, be present, be yourself, be open to your own growth, (rather than influenced by the way others may represent theirs.) Know what you want and trust your ability to create and receive it over time. Confidence is not about external comparison - it’s about internal awareness, as you align with who you really are. Drop some 🙌 if you know real confidence comes from the inside! #projecthappiness #thoughtfulthursday #positivity #quoteoftheday #inspirationalquotes #wordsofwisdom #empowerment #instalove #love #choosehappiness #notetoself #happy #joy #instahappy #healthy #healthylifestyle #empower #motivation #inspirations #goals #wordstoliveby #wellness #mindbodysoul #mentalhealth #inspire #happiness #positivity

To more deeply understand ALL the relationships in your life, consider looking at them through this lens. We cannot help but be influenced by how we were raised. The emotional environment and even words shape how people approach situations, other humans, stresses and opportunities. No matter how people “present” themselves, there is so much under the surface. Consider using this simple awareness to uncover greater compassion, peace, and presence as you move forward.
