When you're in college it's super easy to get lost in schoolwork and countless obligations. We are so busy that we can sometimes forget to take care of ourselves emotionally. This is a list of things that I need to remind myself on the daily.

1. Self care isn't selfish

2. Relax. Take a moment to catch your breath

3. Don't let other people define your worth

4. Your grades don't define you either

5. Try not to use your phone so much

6. Stop creeping on social media (especially when you know it'll hurt you)

7. You are blessed

8. You are loved

9. Don't take things so personally

10. Accept and learn from criticism

11. Don't put off that thing you need to do until tomorrow

12. Taking pictures is great, but it's also important to live in the moment

13. The world will not end if you go to bed before midnight

14. Or if you stay in on a Friday or Saturday night

15. Don't expect too much from people

16. The number of likes you get on Instagram doesn't mean anything

17. Set some time aside to do things you enjoy

18. Live confidently

19. Don't be afraid to get out of toxic relationships

20. You're beautiful

21. You can't change the way a person is, it never works

22. Keep up with writing a journal

23. Don't be afraid to be the first person to text

24. Find new music to listen to

25. Stop comparing yourself to others

26. God is with you

27. Always be grateful and thankful

28. Make today better than yesterday

29. Stop worrying about things you have no control over

30. Overthinking is a no

31. Everything is going to be okay

It's so important to remember that emotional health is just important as physical health. If I read this list at the beginning of each day, I would honestly have so much less stress in my life.
