My whole life I've been too nervous and scared to do what I want to do. A lot of the reasons are really personal and some really silly. But I've come up with a motto this semester that I will be living by---Be Brave. Stay Positive.
I struggle with taking risks. I never think that I have the ability to develop my dreams. I coward behind fear and let others succeed before me. But I'm changing this. I will be brave. I will take chances. I'll make mistakes. I'll change my attitude. I am able. I am capable. I am talented. What a rush it is to say all of that and finally believe it. I can be successful. I can and I will. Things can be hard and challenging and that is where staying positive comes into play. I am the master of my emotions. I can either decide to be negative or look for the positive in everything.
Be Brave. Stay Positive.
I struggle with the same thing. A lot of people told me before I got married I was limiting myself, however, I have found since getting married I am much more sure of myself and I have another person to cheer me on when I want to do something. My husband keeps me encouraged over anything. I'm sure you feel the same way :)
ReplyDeleteGreat motto!
I dig it. I feel the same way with blogging lately. It's just not as important as getting homework done or spending time with loved ones. Good luck this semester :)
ReplyDeleteI also like the motto "I can do hard things." It's amazing how refocusing your MIND as much as we refocus our bodies {with sleep} can give you a clearer goal and purpose in life.
ReplyDeletebest of luck in your classes- you've got this girl!!

This is actually one of the things that I've struggled with as well. I discovered that I've been going around expecting people to not like me and not accept me for who I am, which automatically screws all relationships. It's been a goal of mine to be comfortable in my own skin and not scared of taking chances. We can work on this together. :)
ReplyDeleteSuch a great motto. It is good to push past your comfort zone every now and then... who knows where it could lead...
