Sometimes in life...

…you have to be a little selfish.

…you have to let go of friendships that aren’t constructive.

…you have to cut yourself off to put yourself first.

…you have to get real, and be real, to the core.

…you have to push the negativity out of your mind, or as Jo says, get out of your own head.

…you have to find ways to surround yourself with the influences you need.

…and get rid of the ones you don’t.

…you have to stop thinking about the big picture and start breaking it down into pieces that can actually be swallowed.

…you have to “just do it”.

…you have to break out of that shell, letting go of fear and anxiety.

…you have to stop trying to make everyone understand.

…and start realizing that it’s okay if they don’t.

…you have to find yourself, and start living your life for yourself.

…you have to stop worrying about who you might become and what you might leave behind.

…and get excited for who you might become and what might be ahead.

I picked this up from a blog named 'Quater for her thoughts'. I felt that this blog was inspiring and thought it might be good to share it. When I read this, I felt good. I felt like someone was personally giving me this advice.
