Remember a time when you forgave someone, how freeing that felt. You deserve your mercy as much as anyone else does. Forgive yourself for something today, something you wish you’d done differently. Just let it go. Free yourself from it.

Forgive Yourself

Recognize the difference between The End and An End.

The End or The End

Your work is being yourself, offering what you can to others. You’ve been doing it all along. Now do it with intention.

Being Yourself

Stop searching yourself trying to understand why someone else treated you the way they did. The answer is not inside you; it's inside them, out of reach.

Out Of Reach

Start making yourself at home in your life as it is.

Your Life

Ask yourself about the kind of life you want: What would you do day to day, and with whom, and where? Consider the life you have. Do one thing today, however small, to close the gap between the two.

Ask Yourself

When life held your hand in the flames, it taught you something about the kind of burning you can endure. You survived: don’t forget that, and don’t diminish it. KEEP MOVING.
