# 1:
Stepping out of your comfort zone usually makes for something great. If it makes your heart pound (in the right way), do it. You have to jump, sometimes.
# 2:
If you don’t know what to do, take the next right step - the precise one, like Glennon Doyle Melton says - even if it doesn’t make sense to anyone but you.
# 3:
Believe. In love. In a higher power or the universe. And in yourself, especially. If you don’t believe in yourself, no one else will.
# 4:
Vulnerability is never easy. It’s terrifying before liberating but absolutely essential to wholehearted living.
# 5:
Everyone has a story, regardless of how seemingly perfect someone’s life is. You never know what people are dealing with.
# 6:
Take your own advice. Far too often we comfort others with the words that we actually need to hear.
# 7:
Create - music, art, writing, anything really - even if it’s bad. It’s good for the soul.
# 8:
If you’re not confident, fake it. Soon, you’ll realize you’re not faking it anymore and that it’s natural. Own it. 20 seconds of confidence can change everything.
# 9:
You can learn everything you need to know about a person from the way they treat people in retail and who work at restaurants.
# 10:
At the end of the day, you’re the one who’s going to have to live with the decisions you make. If you’re happy with yourself, that’s all that matters. And if you’re not, maybe you can figure out why that is.
# 11:
If your dreams don’t scare you, they’re not big enough. It’s a cliché, but it’s true. Turn your dreams into goals and your goals into action until your reality is your dream.
# 12:
Fearless doesn’t mean living without any fear. As Taylor Swift says, it’s living in spite of the things that scare you to death. It’s being scared and doing it anyways.
# 13:
Make the big decisions with your heart, and the small ones with your head. Trust your gut. Your heart always brings you home.
# 14:
Who you surround yourself with matters. A lot. You’re the average of the 5 people you spend the most time with.
# 15:
Create your own reality. Know exactly what you want and go get it.
# 16:
You don’t have to do what everyone else is doing. If you know what you want to do, go do it. There’s not one definition of success.
# 17:
There’s a difference between finding time and making time. Don’t make time for the people who don’t make time for you.
# 18:
Live in the now. Stop postponing your happiness and live wholeheartedly. We don’t have time for anything else.
