The key to pushing through is to believe in yourself.
Life is tough, my darling, but so are you.
Believe you’re free to and you’re halfway there.
The most terrifying thing is to accept oneself completely.
Accept who you are; and revel in it.
Wanting to be someone else is a waste of the person you are.
Why should I care what other people think of me?
I am who I am.
And who I wanna be.
Don’t waste your energy trying to change opinions.
Do your thing, and don’t care if they like it.
You yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection.
Tear off the mask, your face is glorious.
No one can make you feel inferior without your consent.
Never dull your shine for somebody else.
Never be bullied into silence.
Never allow yourself to be made a victim.
Accept no one’s definition of your life, but define yourself.
The greatest thing in the world is to know how to belong to oneself.
You’re always with yourself, so you might as well enjoy the company.
To love oneself is the beginning of a lifelong romance.

The most beautiful thing you’re able to wear is confidence.
If you have no confidence in self, you are twice defeated in the race of life.
With confidence, you have won even before you have started.
Remember, you have been criticizing yourself for years, and it hasn’t worked.
Try approving of yourself and see what happens.
Act as if what you do makes a difference.
Be messy and complicated and afraid and show up anyways.
Quotes can be powerful because they encapsulate affirming and empowering messages in concise and relatable ways.
Use these words as a springboard to delve deeper.
Challenge negative thoughts, celebrate your wins, and cultivate self-compassion.
Its not just about how the world sees you, but about how you see and value yourself.
Remember, you are worthy of love and respect, no matter what!
