In case nobody told you today, you are beautiful, you are loved, you are needed, you are strong, you are enough. You are amazing just as you are… more beautiful than you can see, stronger than you feel, and more worthy than you will ever know. Hey you, you are a fabulous, wonderful, stupendous human being, don’t forget it. In case no on has told you lately you yes you are amazing, are strong and brave. Wonderful, kind, loved, worthy, there is no one like you. The world needs you. You are enough, smart, strong, bold, brave, capable and tough. It’s time to believe it. You are unique, you are funny, you are stunning, you are you. You are intelligent, you are amazing. You are talented. You are a gift from God. Don’t wait until you’ve reached your goal to be proud of every step you take toward reaching it. Everything you need is already inside you. Don’t wait for others to light your fire. You have your own matches. When you feel like quitting think about why you started. Look back at where you came from and let yourself feel proud about your progress. You are killing it. Stay focused on your goals, your peace and your happiness. Don’t waste your time on anything that doesn’t contribute to your growth and success. Compliment yourself on a daily basis. Validate yourself, don’t let a soul on this planet convince you you’re not worth it. Love yourself so much that it makes other people uncomfortable. It’s all about you baby girl and your hustle. Focus on taking care of yourself and accomplishing your goals.

There’s no time for distractions. Mind your own business and worry about your own pockets. You don’t get anything done when you’re focused on what other people are doing. Confidence is more than a way of thinking it’s a lifestyle. Confidence is being unapologetic for existing as you are. It’s loving every bit of yourself and not giving a fuck about who doesn’t. There are people out there who won’t be happy until they see you unhappy with yourself. Don’t let them steal your power, joy or thunder. Be selfish enough to have self love, self worth, and self respect. Invest in yourself, trust me it’s worth it. It will be the best investment you ever make. Put all of your energy into your goals and dreams instead of temporary things and people. You’ll be glad you did. Being assertive and standing up for yourself doesn’t mean fighting. It means not letting someone who disrespects you go unchecked. When you’re aware of how beautiful and bad ass you truly are, nobody can tell you a damn thing. Never let what you’re going through have the power to beat you down. You’ve been through worse and overcame it. This time won’t be any different. Having standards doesn’t make you high maintenance, it makes you a bitch who knows what the fuck she wants. You become free when you stop letting shit you can’t control have the power to control you. Bullshit can’t break you if you don’t let it. A queen knows how to build her empire with the same stones that were thrown at her.

Don’t be perfect be yourself, No matter how you feel, get up, dress up, show up and never give up. Wake up with positive intentions to better yourself and the lives of those around you. Every morning we get a chance to be different, a chance to change. A chance to be better. May your vibes shift the whole dame frequency of the room when you walk in. Today be responsible, fearless, open, pretty, honest and most importantly, SLAY. Be a boss babe, it’s never to late to start over. If you weren’t happy with yesterday, try something different today. Don’t stay stuck, do better. At any given moment you have the power to say, this is not how the story is going to end. People with purpose, goals and visions have no time for drama. They invest their energy in creativity and focus on living a positive life. Today will be amazing so wake up and smile. Positivity is a choice that becomes a lifestyle. Don’t think about what can happen in a month, don’t think about what can happen in a year. Just focus on the 24 hours in front of you and do what you can to get closer to where you want to be. Every time you get upset, ask yourself if you were to die tomorrow would it still be worth being upset over? God gave you this life because he knew you were strong enough to live it. Be strong but not rude. Be kind but not weak. Be humble but not timid. Be proud but not arrogant.

Happy are those who take life day by day, Complain very little, and are thankful for the little things in life. Love yourself enough to set boundaries. Your time and energy are precious. You get to choose how you use it. You teach people how to treat you by deciding what you will and won’t accept. The happiness of your life depends on the quality of your thoughts. Here’s to a year of better, positive thinking, clean eating and most of all loving yourself.
