• “Now thanks be to God who ALWAYS causes us to triumph in Christ!” - 2 Corinthians 2:14 I don’t know how to sum up all I’m learning in this season in just a few words, but all I can say is that I am continually becoming more aware and convinced through my own life experiences that Jesus really is the way to experience victory in life no matter the circumstances. Even if it’s a bit of a rollercoaster ride. 🎢 #jesusistheanswer 🙏

  • “If I wired it into my choices, I can wire it out through my choices.” - @drcarolineleaf This may seem like a confusing statement, but for me it was revelatory! Because through this I realized I needed to take OWNERSHIP of my choices. I am who I am today because of my choices. And if I don’t like certain things about that, I can choose to change it! The person I am today does not define the person I’ll be tomorrow... and the person I’ll be tomorrow will be the result of what action I took today to be INTENTIONAL with my personal growth. • • • #personaldevelopment #motivation #success #mindset #focus #inspiration #personalgrowth #selflove #motivationalquotes #selfimprovement #inspirationalquotes #selfhelp #happiness #life #mindfulness #growthmindset #quotes #selfcare #positivity #neuroplasticity #loveyourself #21daybraindetox #selfawareness

  • 90% of the time I do good. I stay on top of my thinking. 🧠 I eat right. 🍎 I go to the gym. 🏋🏼‍♀️ I keep up with my studies. 📚 I socialize. 👭 I get outside. 🍂 I make. good. choices. 👍🏻 And I celebrate the 90% because there was a time in my life where I was such a perfectionist that I got upset when I got a 99% on a test — because I made one mistake. Just one. No, friends, the 90% is huge. Even the 80%. Or the 50%. Any ground you take, any victory you walk in, is worth celebrating. But then there’s the 10% where I don’t do good... 😔 And I want to make sure I share those moments, too, because I get disgusted by the ability to be fake on social media and pretend everything is rainbows and butterflies. 🌈 🦋 Let’s face it. We all know the stuff we go through in life sometimes is just plain ole 💩 So here’s to my 10% of mess. 🥂 🔸When I don’t keep up with the goals I assigned myself for school that week. 🔸When I don’t do my dishes. 🔸When I eat an entire chocolate bar in one sitting. 🔸When I watch 4 hours on Netflix nonstop. 🔸When I go to bed WAY too late. 🔸When I forget to brush my teeth before I fell asleep. 🔸When I don’t do my reading. 🔸When I don’t clean my room. 🔸 When I isolate myself. 🔸 When I waste my time. 🔸 When I don’t keep my attitude in check. 🔸 When I eat fries and milkshakes in embarrassing quantities. And instead of beating myself up about how many miles I now have to jog to work off my fries and milkshake, or what my roommates are going to think of me being a slob, or how I’m going to catch up on the schoolwork I’ve slacked off on... I’ve learned to have grace for myself. 🥰 I’ve learned to be kind to myself when I slip up. ❤️ I’ve learned that I’m not defined by moments. ⏱ I’ve learned to get up again. 💪🏽 And I am much, much happier this way. 😊 Grace is like oil. Depression, anxiety, anger, and stress lose their grip when you’re covered in it. So do me a solid and celebrate your victories! 🎉 🎊 And cover yourself in grace when you slip up. Just get up again. You have not lost. “But he answered me, “My grace is always more than enough for you.” - 2 Corinthians 12:9
