Things I Wish I Knew Earlier In Life
1-There are battles you have to conquer on your own. Roads you have to take alone. You can't always rely on your family, friends or even partner to save you from yourself.2-There is just one specific person meant for you to be with romantically. You can fall in love once. You don't need to hold onto who leaves you if you're still single, but you must hold on to your spouses if you're married, usually there's a blessing behind it.
3-Choosing to not give your side of the story can sometimes be the most peaceful way to win a battle. Time always reveals the truth. Don't worry.
4- Self care is everything. Invest in yourself. Mental and physical health should always be your priority in life.
5-Dignity is important. Do not ever make any compromises on that count. Don’t allow anyone to take you for granted or disrespect you. Know your worth.
6-Once a mistake, twice a choice and more than that is a pattern. Break the cycle.
7-Never put yourself last. Don’t sacrifice your entire life for people. Sounds very selfish but everyone is on their own journey of life through God. It’s not your job to make people happy, joy comes from the Lord, God can use you to create happiness in people's lives.
8-Disconnect from the notion that the amount of attention or messages you get from someone daily is a validation of your worth. People have lives outside of their phones. Give them space and your absence. Being available all the time causes over familiarity and you slowly lose your respect without even realizing it. Get busy.
9-Never completely tell anyone everything about you no matter how much you trust them. Keep some mystery to yourself.
10-Distance yourself from a problem for a fresher perspective. Just as the world looks more beautiful from an airplane, things will seem better from a distance.
Life is a journey...
Nothing last...
Fight to be on the side of God...
God care more about you than you do care about your self.
