Everything that happens, happens for a reason. Who we are is a result of who we think we are. So think the good stuff and stop letting things that happen control you. Take command of your life and accept the small failures as humps in the learning curve. They are there to keep you awake. So be grateful for them. Nobody is perfect so stop trying to be. Pick yourself back up and start over again. Better yet, don’t clean off your slate. Just continue where you left off. There is no need to hide the past. It is over, finished, and gone. Focus in on the present and make it yours. Learn everything you can to keep your mind open, fresh, and informed. Stay positive and open your eyes to the good, beautiful things of this world. Don’t turn a blind eye to the negative things. Simply say “no” to them. Believe in your ability to break down every mental barrier that comes in an attempt to stop you from being content, happy, and fulfilled. Become the best possible you imaginable.
