‘Being willing to get knocked down and get back up again, and fail, and learn, and grow, is more powerful than waiting for someone to come into your life telling you what step to take next.’- Jamie Kern Lima

‘Your own knowing is more powerful than anyone else’s advice.’-

When you get knocked down, get back up. Do not wait for other people to come and tell you how to live your life.

Stop waiting for people to come and tell you how to live your life. If you can’t tell yourself how to live, if you can’t tell yourself where to go, and if you don’t know what you want, you need to do your own learning.

Why is that? Because, according to Lima, ‘Whatever mentor gives you advice, you still bring YOU with YOU.’

Why You Must Stop The Lies You Tell Yourself

‘When we courageously take steps toward unlearning the lies and gaining awareness of the truths, and assessing the impact of living our lives in ways that are inauthentic, disconnected, numb, people-pleasing, and out of alignment with who we truly are, we begin our journey of going from unseen to seen. From invisible to visible. From disconnected to connected. From doubting ourselves to trusting ourselves. From craving love to realizing we already are … love.’- Jamie Kern Lima

Embrace your life. Do not disconnect from your true self. Life is too short. You are here to live your life. Do not waste it. Help people, but don’t try to please them. It won’t work. Because you can’t please everybody.

Instead of trying to please people, why not focus on making yourself happy? You can do it. It is possible.
