Never Underestimate Your Power To Change Yourself!

If you didn't like your dinner you'd eat something else. If you didn't like your outfit, you'd change your clothes. If you don't like something, change it! It is as simple as that. Never underestimate your power to change yourself.  Make a resolution to change the things that are weighing you down; Don't wait for January 1, the best time is NOW!

Become Your Own Priority.

Maya Angelou said 'never make someone a priority when all you are to them is an option'; and I agree with her (how could anyone not agree with MA) but I also believe no one is going to make you a priority when you aren't even your OWN priority.  It is simple to blame others for how you are feeling or for certain hardships you are experiencing but the hard part, which also happens to be the part that will change how you are feeling and how you handle said hardships, is facing the role you play in your own life.  The most important thing you can do for everyone and everything around you is to become your own priority.  Strive to be the you, you want to be.  Don't expect a handout if you've never lent a helping hand.  You probably won't receive a warm greeting when you present a grimacing look.  You won't see the results you want if you don't put in the work.  No one will ever be able to happily and sufficiently take care of others if they don't take care of themselves.  Become your own priority: strive to be the you, you want to be.  The rest will fall into place.
