True care does not always feel comfortable.’

When we function outside of self, we have the uncommon ability to not only see the whole system but see past, present, and future, and act accordingly.’

You are not alone. Whatever it is that you are going through, do not lose your heart. Do not forget who you are. Do not tear yourself down. It is going to be alright.

No matter how tough, it is not going to be here forever. It will go away.

Struggling is not a crime. It is not going to destroy you. It is going to make you stronger. It is going to make you smarter. It is going to make you calmer.

Do not lose your heart. Do not blame other people for what you are going through in your life.

Because you do not know what they are going through. They are going through things. But they are not like yours.

According to Ray Dalio, ‘… we all struggle with different things at different times in our lives….’ He is right. No one is free.

Whatever it is that is keeping you up at night, just know that it is not going to be here forever.

All you need to do is to take care of yourself.

When you take care of yourself, when you are doing well, when you are living well, when you are thinking well,

when you are loving well, other things will follow.
