5 'You' Statements To Always Keep In Mind
threeprinciplesmovies

In a society full of trying to be, do and look good enough for the people around you, it is easy to forget how much happiness loving yourself can bring. It is so important to constantly remind yourself of how wonderful each and every one of you truly are. Also, it is so common today that people try to look and act like others that they idolize, but they forget how amazing they are themselves.

1. You are beautiful.

Wow, if you could only see yourselves in someone else’s eyes, maybe you could understand how wonderful the twinkle in your eye is when you laugh or how amazing your eyes look when they are squinting off into the sunset. If only you could see yourself rubbing your eyes awake when you wake up with crazy bed hair or when you climb into bed with your makeup still on after a night out. You are so incredibly beautiful in such different ways at every point of every day and if you could see how beautiful you are just as you are, you would be amazed. Be yourself and feel beautiful because you deserve to feel how others see you in the simplest ways. You may not see yourself as the way that “perfect” is portrayed, but you are so far beyond that in your own perfect imperfections.

2. You are radiant.

Every single thing that you do affects someone else around you. That is incredible just in itself. Whenever you feel like you are less than someone else, just remember that everything that you think or act on has an impact on someone else. You can decide the course of your life and with each decision you make, something changes and that is crazy and scary and amazing all in one. Your love and your happiness and your beauty radiates outside of you and spreads to everyone that has touched your life. You can change someone’s day by just giving a wave or having a conversation and radiating your beautiful personality onto them. You have so much potential and so many perfect things about you that they just cannot help but radiate onto others around you.

3. You are perfectly unique.

You are perfect just the way that you are. Whether it’s the birthmark on your cheek or the way that you laugh so that the whole room can hear you, you are perfect and you are unique. You are the only person in this world that thinks, talks, and acts just like you and that in itself is absolutely amazing. The way that you are is something that you should be proud of because there is no one else exactly like you. You were created the way you were for such a greater purpose and you should love yourself simply because of that.

4. You are loved.

Every person you have ever connected with has had their lives changed in some way because of you. You are so loved that you most likely cannot even begin to understand the amount of love that is surrounding you. Not only do all of the people in your life have some type of love for you, but the person who created you loves you and that alone is enough to show how loved you truly are. You have no idea the people that you may meet in your future, but there are ones who may become your best friends, or who you may become their mentor and role model, or maybe you will become a husband/wife, or a parent or just simply someone to talk to. There are so many people who already love you and an infinite amount of others who may in the future because you are so loved and you have such a greater purpose.

5. You are enough.

You are enough. You are so enough. You are here for a purpose that is beyond anything you could ever imagine. Maybe your purpose is to say, “Hi” to a various amount of people just to make them smile, or to become a doctor or construction worker or engineer just to further the field or discover something new or maybe to become a worldwide traveler in order to touch people’s lives from everywhere. The way that you can change others’ lives is wonderful and there is no one that is more enough than you are. You are perfect just the way that you are and you deserve to confident in that.

These statements are just the beginning of the self-love statements that you should always have in mind, but they are so evident and so important that every single person deserves to believe these things about them. You are beautiful because you are radiant because you are unique because you are loved because you are enough.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
