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.

It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. But also a time of stressing over the perfect gift.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…
