Lessons learned from the observation of others…
In life, you learn a lot from the decisions to make and the actions you take…you also learn a great deal from witnessing the decisions and actions of others. This is something that has become clear to me in the last 3 months or so…
There’s a difference between being assertive, and being a dick.
There’s a difference between letting go, and giving up.
There’s a difference between moving on, and running away.
There’s a difference between standing up for yourself, and avoiding blame.
There’s a way of feeling happiness, without being happy.
It is 100% possible to love someone else without loving yourself, but you cannot be good to anyone else if you’re not first good to yourself.
A relationship will not bring you permanent happiness; don’t expect it to, but do not neglect the happiness and support it does bring you.
If a person shows you selfless love and support, you do not have to accept it, but the least you can do is respect it.
People will put up with a lot of crap for the ones they love, but even the most loyal of souls have a limit.
Lying is the highest form of disrespect, especially in the face of those you love and who love you.
Sometimes you don’t get what you deserve, but you will never get more than you give.
Do not expect anything- good or bad.
There’s a difference between being excused, and making excuses; especially when it comes to mental health.
What you achieve is 95% down to dedication.
If you are unhappy with your life, don’t bitch about it- do something about it!
Stop focusing on the one reason why it won’t work and start focusing on all the reasons why it will…
Courage;
