3.) Don’t get sucked in to judging others.
”Everyone is fighting a battle you know nothing about.” Think about this every time you look at someone walking down the street, eating in a restaurant or even a friend you see on the street. Life is hard enough. With trying to work, pay bills, be with your famiy, going to school, taking care of yourself, etc, life can be sucky all on its own. Adding the judgement of others who have NO IDEA what you are going thru everyday is an added pain that doesn’t need to be there**. So take a moment and realize what your thoughts and your words are saying and doing. What do they say about you when you are judging and belittling someone else? I believe the more you judge and hurt others, the more darkness that creeps into your soul.

4.) Your attitude can make or break you.
This is something I have struggled with a lot in my life. Being very negative about circumstances or actions that happen in my life. What I have read, and learned is that the more negative I become, the more negative things happen to me. If I drop something first thing in the morning and break it, and get angry, other things will start to make me angry. It’s like you are putting negative energy out into the universe, so the negative particles are finding their way to you! This can be a hard shift in your mind, but try to keep a positive attitude and you will start to attractive the POSITIVE that you want to have in your life.
5.) Hate starting over? Then stop quitting.
I hear this every week when I work out with Autumn Cabrese in my beach body on demand app. It’s simple but really makes sense. I finally made it a priority to workout to feel better about myself. Almost everyday get up at 4:45am and go to the gym by 5am. Sometimes I’ll have my workout buddy there, but many times I don’t. It’s easier now b/c I have been doing it for 4 months, but some days I really just don’t feel like it when my alarms goes off. But I remember Autumn. “If you hate starting over, then stop quitting”. If you have anything in your life that you are pissed you keep starting over, then be more upset and keep at it. Don’t let yourself quit something you want to accomplish. You got this. You are better than the excuses in your head. Simple as that!
