Day #2: Put Some Words of Wisdom that Speak to You (30 Day Writing Challenge)

As of late,a lot of things speak to me, mainly the ones involving productivity and happiness. Most of the quotes are from the good quotes instagram account.

Among them are:

"Worrying is a waste of time. It doesn't change anything. It messes with your mind and steals your happiness."

"Train your mind to see the good in every situation."

I try to see the best in everything, as in always look at the bright side. It's useless to dwell over something negative, not to mention it wastes a lot of precious time. So I try to be optimistic and not be affected by negative comments and feelings.

"The littlest things in our lives - are the biggest blessings that we overlook. I'm thankful to be healthy, happy and well-fed."

THIS. People tend to take everything in granted, especially those who live in such good conditions from birth till now, without having to worry about a cozy home and daily meals. There are people who lack these two things. There are also those who do not have good terms with their own family from young. We are lucky to be happy, healthy and well-fed. We should not treat these privileges too lightly. 

"I'm a work in progress. I'm still under construction. Whichever mistakes I make today I pray I learn and grow from but I'll never give up."

"Instead of worrying about why someone doesn't love you - focus on why you aren't doing whatever it takes to make sure that you're happy."

"Sometimes you win, sometimes you learn."

This speaks volumes to me. I am a person with low confidence so I tend to procrastinate doing certain things because I fear making mistakes and making myself feel bad as a result. I expect myself to do everything right on my first try without ugly smears that reflect my mistakes. This is the reason why I delay writing out drafts for my stories. Obviously since it's a draft, I'm free to do as many mistakes as I let myself to do. It's always hard to carry out an advice. It's not easy. There are always insecurities inside that prevent yourself from trying to improve yourself. What if the advice doesn't work? What if we stay the same and become sad forever? Well, the thing about us is that we have to be brave and get out of our comfort zone. It's hard at first but slowly, we'll start to improve and become the new 'me' that we have always envisioned.
