Am I a little better than yesterday?

Self help isn’t here to make you feel burnt out and frustrated. You’re not working on yourself if you’re constantly comparing your results to someone else’s.

Being better can mean taking five more minutes to sip your morning coffee in calmness instead of rushing to work.

It can also mean practicing a 10-minute stretching or meditation routine.

There’s no definition of being better. It’s up to you to define it and live accordingly.

Have I expressed my love for my family and friends?

We often act as if our loved ones would be around forever instead of appreciating their presence now.

What matters is showing that you care for someone.

A 5-minute phone call or a text message don’t take much effort, but if practiced regularly, these little acts can strengthen our relationships.
