Understand who you are and demand nothing less than what you deserve!  Don’t ever settle for less.  Opening yourself up to accept less will become easier once it starts.  We dream multiple times each night, so choose as many dreams as you can and start your journey.

Often, those we care about are the ones that will cause you pain.  You are not beneath!  This can hurt your spirit and possibly kill your dreams.  Your spirit comes from God and your happiness comes from within.  Where you are doesn’t determine where you go.  LOVE YOURSELF!

I leaned on this when I felt that my happiness came from how those around me made me feel.  I appreciate the lesson learned,  because it led me back to whose opinion really matters.  The one who loves me when I doubt myself, loves me when I don’t love myself, encourages me when I may not be accepting of encouragement, and reminds me that I am enough!
