10 Things To Tell Yourself Every Morning
Kaitlin Didinger

In this day in age, many people tear themselves down because of what they think about themselves and what other people think about them. Sometimes, to try to love who you are, you have to cut the toxic people out of your life, the ones who tell you that you can't do it or tell you that you're not worth it. Here's a list of a couple things you should tell yourself every morning.

1. You are worth it.

No matter what anyone says, you are worth the fight. Don't listen to anyone who's going to tear you down.

2. You are beautiful.

If anyone, and I mean anyone tells you that you're anything less than beautiful, they're wrong.

3. Put yourself first.

Sometimes it's okay to put yourself before others. If you're constantly worrying about making everyone else happy before yourself, you're not going to be happy. It is impossible to make everyone happy, so work on yourself first for once.

4. It's okay to be selfish.

Like I said above, sometimes it's okay to be a little selfish and take care of yourself. If you need a day away from everything, take a day. If you need a vacation, take a vacation. Go eat a meal alone. Spend a little time with just yourself.

5. Everybody has bad days.

Everyone has days where they're not themselves for some reason. While it is not, in any way, okay to take that out on others, it happens. Don't take some things too personally. You are the best at being you and that's all that matters.

6. You're the best you out there.

Nobody's better at being you than you are. Don't let someone take that from you. Be true to yourself, because you are great.

7. Relax.

Take some time to just sit and relax. Listen to some music. Watch some netflix (just not greys anatomy because that's not relaxing).

8. Look at puppy pictures.

If you're anything like me, you might love dogs. Take some time to spend with a dog, or if that's not possible just look at some puppy pictures. They're really cute and I'm sure something will put a smile on your face.

9. Smile.

You have a beautiful smile. Show it to the world.

10. Don't care what people think.

It doesn't matter what people think of you. All that matters is what you think of you.


Take care of yourself for once.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
