You are braver than you think, more talented than you know, and capable of more than you imagine.” ― Roy T. Bennett, The Light in the Heart “Life is too short to waste any amount of time on wondering what other people think about you. In the first place, if they had better things going on in their lives, they wouldn't have the time to sit around and talk about you. What's important to me is not others' opinions of me, but what's important to me is my opinion of myself.” ― C. JoyBell C. “The person in life that you will always be with the most, is yourself. Because even when you are with others, you are still with yourself, too! When you wake up in the morning, you are with yourself, laying in bed at night you are with yourself, walking down the street in the sunlight you are with yourself.What kind of person do you want to walk down the street with? What kind of person do you want to wake up in the morning with? What kind of person do you want to see at the end of the day before you fall asleep? Because that person is yourself, and it's your responsibility to be that person you want to be with. I know I want to spend my life with a person who knows how to let things go, who's not full of hate, who's able to smile and be carefree. So that's who I have to be.” ― C. JoyBell C. “Believe it can be done. When you believe something can be done, really believe, your mind will find the ways to do it. Believing a solution paves the way to solution.” ― David J.

HAPPINESS HABITS THAT PROMOTE SELF-BELIEF * Segmenting life by 2-4 minute increments. * Listing out your happiness habits. (dancing, gratitude, stretching, making the bed, laughing, fresh air, pretty pens, organized scheduler, headbands, making time for makeup, reading) * Decluttering your life > Less TV, more books. Less stuff, more joy.  Less comparison, more being present.  Less to-dos, more being. Less productivity, more prioritization. HOW TO HAVE CONFIDENCE / BELIEF IN WHERE YOU ARE GOING Confident people aren't confident because of who they are, but rather, they are confident because of who they are becoming. By focusing on your growth - by getting obsessed about your baby-steps of progress - you can live forever in the land of self-belief without being shaken. Belief Must Be Grounded and Grown -Gardening Example -Prep the soil -Shade and sunshine -Work the field -Be patient in each season -Plant what you want to grow -Pride in your own harvest / not looking at the harvest of others...
