Feeling a bit under the weather? Stressed? Overworked? Well, here is some motivation to get you through.
1. You know those days where you come home from a long day of work or school?
GiphyYou are usually left to your thoughts. Well, at least I am, in between the laundry list of things to do, and the thoughts of everything and nothing at the same time.
2. Most people tend to put off thinking in the greater aspects of life.
GiphyIf something is bothering them they put it off, stay busy or maybe they even hyper-focus on something else entirely. I feel like I do all of them in the course of an hour and restart it for the next.
3. Life is very difficult.Â

I'd like to say that life isn't that hard, but that's not true and anyone who tells you differently is lying. It is painful, confusing, and unrelenting. There are days where you just want to give up, and then there are days where you are so glad to be alive. Those days seem few and hard to find at times. But everything is difficult, right? It's a process to appreciate things when they're good, right?
4. It's a constant struggle to get through the day.

5. They say everything happens for a reason.
GiphyWhether they call it fate or destiny, whatever suits your fancy. And you know, a part of me truly believes that. I believe there is a reason that bad things happen to good people, that people come into your life to show you another layer of yourself, and that no matter how bad it gets - it could always be worse.
6. This life is too short and precious to waste it on anything but your happiness.Â
GiphyIf you are not happy with your life, do anything you possibly can to change it. Whether that be a new career, a new place to live, or surrounding yourself with genuine people.
7. Stop second guessing yourself, stop making excuses.
GiphyIf you see something or someone as difficult, reevaluate their presence in your life to see if it's worth it in the long run. Sometimes, it's your perspective that needs to change and sometimes it's your own fear.
8. Fear has the power to either intimidate or motivate you.
GiphyIt's up to you to choose what is best for you and your conscious. I know myself, I know what I want and what I deserve in this life.
9. Remember, you are what you tell yourself, not what others say you have to be.Â
GiphyI am determined, strong-willed, opinionated, fiercely passionate, and I never give up on anything I believe in. Now, this makes a few things difficult - but I still know in my heart that I am being honest to myself and those around me. What about you?
