thread: wise words found on Pinterest, all together

1) confidence

1.1: stop discounting your successes, start affirming them instead

1.2: develop a positive attitude, choose to get your mind off the negatives. This will help with pushing through when things get hard

1.3: nothing is awkward when you just don't give a f*ck. You're on this earth to have a good time, not to be seen as cool

1.4: repeat daily
I will remain focused on my goals. I know success comes with consistency. I know that I will make it. I know I am good enough. Things will get better. Everything I deserve is coming my way.

1.5: forgive yourself for messing up or making mistakes, we're all humans, it simply happens

1.6: respect and love yourself
You can't shine and take bold moves if you're uncertain about yourself. You can't love someone when not loving yourself. I've made these mistakes and am working on them, so should you!

1.7: Don't follow the crowd
Do your own thing. Don't be another grey mouse. Do what you want, dress, act, like you want.

1.8: Goals and standards before anyone, put yourself first, always

2) focussing on success and how to get there

2.1: 6 months of hardcore focus and alignment can put you 5 years ahead in life. Don't underestimate the power of consistency and desire

2.2: once you get a taste of bettering yourself, it becomes addictive in the best sense. This is the most powerful way of living (by. @douxparisian)

2.3:
Study while others are sleep
Decide while others are delaying
Prepare while others daydream
Begin while others are procrastinating
Work while others are wishing
Save while others are wasting (big one for me)
Listen while others are talking
Smile while others are frowning

2.4: If you want to start something, Do it! Stop questioning yourself

2.5: Don't tell anyone what you're doing. Shut up, start working, show them the results

3) school
