“That which does not kill us makes us stronger.” ~ Friedrich Nietzsche
I’m sure you’ve heard this saying.
Look…
Certain challenges we face are beyond our control.
What we need to do is accept what is.
Know that this is just a phase….
Just like seasons…
Seasons come…
Seasons go…
And nothing stays forever.
So focus on what you can control.
Such as your attitude towards adversities…
How you interpret your challenges…
And what you tell yourself about how to overcome them.
Your mind may initially produce catastrophic thoughts…
Saying how difficult things are…
Doubting that you have the strength within you.
So in response…
Recognize that you don’t need to believe every one of your thoughts.
You have a choice.
Reframe your thoughts…
And have faith that everything will be okay.
Remember…
This is just a bad day….
Not a bad life.
So reflect on the goodness of life…
There are so many things to be thankful for.
Believe me…
It will boost your inner strength.
Despite adversities…
You are still standing…
You are stronger than you think you are.
Your power…
Your courage…
Your strength…
It’s there.
It’s always been there.
So you don’t need to look outside of yourself for strength…
You already have it.
Rooting for you,
Jay (encouraging you to recognize and acknowledge the strength within you)
