If you guys don't know yet, I turned 26 2 weeks ago. When January arrived, it kinda scares me knowing that I'll be a year older. No, it's not about the number.. after all it's just a number! It's the fact that I'll be facing another year of challeges, struggles, pain, etc...
I've been telling to my family how 2017 is by far my bestest year and what if this year would not be the same? January flew by so fast! and in just 2 days, we will all welcome February! LIKE WHAT THE H!!!!! is there a stop button??! I always bear in mind what my boyfriend used to tell me all the time and those things really do help me to calm down and breathe.
So, I wanna share with you guys my life lessons I learned at 26. WARNING: this might be a long post so I will understand if you get lazy to read everything BUT if you reach till the end, I just want to say THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR STICKING WITH ME! I APPRECIATE IT. <3 okay let's start!
1. Have FAITH even though it feels like everything is not falling into its right places. You'll be surprise how God will answer your prayers.
2. Do NOT panic or think that by this time you have to achieve this or that, being successful is a work in progress. Ya'll know what they say, "Rome wasn't built in a day"
3. Always look for INSPIRATION to always keep you going with your life whether its a video in Facebook or Youtube as long as it makes you smile or laugh then you're good now, get back to work again.
4. Don't be afraid to TRY new things. it doesn't matter if its big or small because the most important part of that is you learn something.
5. Don't give a SH*T to things that are not important. You don't need negative vibes in your life. I am guilty of crying and being depressed to smallest things which really saddens me to the point that sometimes I fight my boyfriend just to get distracted which makes me more sad because he is now irritated at me. Haha! crazy huh?!
6. Stop COMPARING yourself with other people. You will never get satisfied with your life by doing that. Instead of thinking "buti pa siya ganito, ganyan" or "nakakainggit nakaka travel siya" why not count your blessings right? A lot of people want to have what you have now you just don't realize because you are busy comparing yourself to others.
7. Learn to admit when you FAIL. No one will judge you specially when people know you put your 100%. That's reality. What matters is that you learn how to stand up again.
8. You are not a BAD person when you say no. I really can't explain this further but if that thing doesn't do any good to you then just say no.
9. APPRECIATE everything that is around you. I always say in my prayers "Thank you Lord for giving me more than I deserve" because it's true! I do not know what I am doing to deserve this kind of life while somewhere out there someone is facing a harder battle than I am. As a way of giving back I am trying to be a great daughter, sister, girl friend, friend, and a person.
10. FAMILY COMES FIRST!!! Whatever happens they are the people who will not turn their backs on you.
Yaaay! you reached till the end! I hope this post inspires you in whatever circumstances you are in now. Let me know if you want me to share more of my personal experiences. Again, thank you so much for reading this posts! :) See you again in my next post!
