If I want something I get it.

I’m not talking about earning money to buy the things that I want, I’m talking about when I want something – and not monetarily – I find a way to get it.

Never dishonestly.

Never going against my morals.

I figure out a way that sooner or later I will accomplish my goal and then I don’t give up until it happens.

This isn’t me boasting. It’s me encouraging. Because anyone can do it.

If there’s something you want, put your mind to it, and do it.

I know there are some extenuating circumstances. I’m not talking about things you can’t control. But if you have the ability to make something happen, do it. It probably won’t be easy and you definitely can’t be lazy, but it will be worth it.

Don’t like that you’re out of shape? Exercise and eat 1200 calories a day. Done.

Want to get out of debt? Work hard, don’t buy things you don’t need, save your money. Done.

Want to be a calmer person? Meditate. Go to the doctor and get anti-anxiety medication. Done.

Want more respect? Treat others with respect and don’t accept bad behavior from anyone. Set boundaries. Done.

Need life to be a little easier? Don’t take on things you can’t handle. Delegate instead of being the martyr all the time. Say “no” if you don’t want to do something. Done.

Unhappy with a situation? Find your inner strength and fight for what you deserve. Don’t give up until it’s … DONE.

Before criticizing and saying things like “Ha! Easy for her to say!” Read the above again. These are absolutely things that every single person can apply to their lives.

Some people love the drama. Some people love the martyrdom. Some people love to complain. But you don’t have to be or do any of those things. They’re all decisions that you’re putting on yourself.

Stop being your own worst enemy.
