25 Things I Need To Remind Myself More Often

In This Article:

I have always had an open heart and mind. Something I take great pride in is my constant necessity to be kind to others around me. This could either be through consistently giving the best advice to the people around me, or just being a listening ear to those who may be struggling and are due for a good venting session.

Nevertheless, I have always taken pride in my ability to lift others up when they are feeling down. I love to help out others in any way I can.

However, sometimes I forget about myself and how I am feeling. I forget to give myself the same pieces of advice when I am struggling, and I forget to actually listen to my own words of wisdom. I give and I give to other people, but forget to give back to myself.

25 things I constantly need to remind myself of are...

1. You are smarter than you think

2. Not only are you smart, but you are strong!

3. Be confident, you can do anything you set your mind to.

4. Stop doubting yourself so much, you can accomplish anything

5. It's OK to treat yourself every once and a while

6. You do not need 20LBS of make up to look beautiful

7. You are always good enough 

8. Stop going back to people in your past who hurt you 

9. You do not need to rely on others for anything

10. It is OK to ask for help sometimes

11. Unfortunately, you are not superwoman, you can't fix everyones problems 

12. Live a little more

13. Say yes to new opportunities out of your comfort zone

14. Self-care is important, do a face mask at least once a week!

15. You do not have to have it all together at every second of the day 

16. Girl, take more naps. You are running yourself exhausted

17. Don't take the people in your life for granted.

18. You are never alone

19. Listen to other people's advice

20. ALWAYS trust your gut instinct

21. Stick up for yourself no matter what

22. Stop letting people take advantage of you 

23. Don't let someone walk all over you for being too nice 

24. Give yourself more time to study 

25. Love yourself more

Dear High School Friend Group,

My sweet angels, where would I be without you guys. We all grew up together because we either met in middle school or high school and watched each other grow up and get "old." We got to go to prom together and then graduate together. Then watched each other as we continued our lives in college, joining sororities and meeting people who will impact our lives forever. It all has happened so fast.

Oh college, we can’t live with you, but we can’t live without you. It’s a love/hate relationship, really. College is an experience that no one can ever prepare you for, and maybe that’s a good thing. You never really expect any of the things that college encompasses until you are there. College is fun, but don’t have too much fun. C’s get degrees, but they don’t get you into graduate school.

Blair Waldorf

The "Gossip Girl" series may be over, but Blair Waldorf's iconic character lives in our hearts forever. Blair was the queen of the Upper East Side, and a character you either loved or hated. She taught us everything we needed to know about life, love and of course, how to score a Chuck Bass. So the next time you feel a bit lost and are in need of guidance, look no further than to the Queen B herself.

As I spend my Sunday avoiding my homework and other adult responsibilities, I realized that I've watched this series over and over about a million times. Sadly, there isn't a Blair quote I don't know, so I came up with a list of a few favorites. You know you love her...xoxo

College is an endless cycle of crappy, sleepless nights, tedious, boring lectures, and hours of never-ending piles of homework.

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.
