Another year is over, another year begins. Let’s start the year with what I learned from 2017 since it was certainly a tough year.
-
A happier life starts when you cut the snakes šĀ out of your life (AKA the toxic people.)
-
NEVER sacrifice your happiness for your career.
-
Just because someone is older than you, doesn’t make them more responsible or more grown up.
-
Just because someone is older than you, doesn’t mean they have got their life together.
-
When a toxic person can no longer control you, they will try and control what other people think of you – rise above it.
-
No need for revenge or being petty towards the people who screw you over, they always get what they deserve.
-
If someone puts your safety at risk then they are NOT your friend no matter how much you convince yourself they are.
-
If someone lies to you and then lies some more when you confront them, let them go, they are NOT worth your time.
-
Don’t actively search for friends and people who care about you. The ones who ACTUALLY care will come looking for you and will find a way to stay.
-
Hold onto the ones who matter, let go of the snakesĀ š
-
You can’t change other people’s minds about anything so don’t try.
-
Toxic people won’t notice that they are hurting you until you cause them some inconvenience, they aren’t worth it.
-
Stay silent, eventually, other people will see through the snakesĀ šbullshit just like you did and if they don’t, they aren’t worth having around.
-
My anxiety is NEVER right about ANYTHING. Neither is YOUR anxiety. NEVER LISTEN TO ANXIETY.
-
Even when you think no one cares about you, there will be someone waiting to prove you wrong.
-
ALWAYS back up draft blog posts as WordPress has a tendency to delete them after you’ve spent a great deal of time on them.
-
Your mental health is more important than anything else, put this first, everything else will wait and will improve when you are well.
