Things More Worth Thinking About Than Whatever’s Consuming You
- The fact that self love sometimes is admitting you don’t like yourself. So you come up with steps to change the things you know you can do better.
- The fact that you don’t need to be exceptionally beautiful, talented or successful to experience the things that make life profound: love, knowledge, community.
- The ways you have sincerely failed and how you commit yourself to doing better, not only for yourself but for the people who love an rely on you.
- What you could honestly be defined by at this point, based on your consistent actions and interactions, and if that’s what you really want.

Behaviors That Are Keeping You From Having The Life You Want
- You try to change other people: Most negative emotional reactions are you identifying an aspect of yourself, as the things you love about others are the things you love about yourself and the things you hate about others are the things you cannot see in yourself.
- You are constantly trying to decide on what’s going to be best for you in the future and then going after it: but choosing what you want for the future is just recreating a solution/ideal of the past. Living in the moment is key, as it is the only thing your brain can actually comprehend.

10 Key Things We Misunderstand About Emotion
- Fear = Interest: one fear that wants to flee from the situation and one fear that wants to investigate.
- Negative Emotions are good for us, because they are a signal that something is not right.
- Stress weakens every part of you!
- Social Media makes us imagine an idea of reality - one that is far from the truth - so that we prioritize screen time over real life interaction. We are beings who require human intimacy.
- You cannot numb yourself to one feeling without numbing yourself to everything else. It’s healthier to experience everything , the good and the bad.
