1. Take your time.

You owe nothing to anybody. If you feel like there are conflicts in your life, you can choose to address it or not. You can make the decision whenever YOU feel comfortable. Never let anyone make you feel like you own them anything. Work on your time and do it in a manner that suits your needs best.

2. Give people a chance.

I know it's hard sometimes, but not everyone wants to hurt you. It's not fair to jump to that conclusion or make that assumption. You do not want to miss out on amazing opportunities just because of a small insecurity. People always surprise you so let the good ones get their turn and show you that they’re worthy of your time.

3. Let it go.

What ever it is. Whoever caused it. Let it go. If it does not help us grow or discover ourselves, it is not worth obsessing over. We have that tendency to let small things completely consume us, but no more. Take a walk with your music blasting in your ear. Get out a bit by yourself. Go grab an expensive coffee and have time to yourself instead of dwelling. Even if it is only for a little while, I promise it will help.

4. Raise the volume louder! Use your voice! Disagree!

Do whatever you feel is right and necessary. It's time to stop feeling so trapped inside your own mind. We are a walking contradiction. We were given this ability to form and articulate intellectual and important opinions, but we don't like sharing them. Why? Because of insecurities? Nope. It's enough now. If you want to raise your volume because you love the song that's playing, do it. Overthinking is what keeps us from having a good time in most situations.

5. Take everything day by day.

It's hard, I get that. I know that you have a million and one ideas going through your head at all times, but you can adjust to that. Take those crazy, unorganized thoughts and create something out of them. We are creative. Write what you're thinking down and keep it for later. Your thoughts and ideas are and will always be valid, even when you think they're not.
