It’s Not About You!
You were made by God and for God, and until you understand that, life will never make sense.
– Rick Warren
Sometimes, It’s You!
Check yourself.
Sometimes, you are the toxic person. Sometimes, you are the mean, negative person you’re looking to push away.
Sometimes, the problem is you.
And that doesn’t make you less worthy. Keep on growing.
Keep on checking yourself.
Keep on motivating yourself.
Mistakes are opportunities.
Look at them, own them, grow from them and move on.
Do better, be better.
You’re human. It’s okay.
