im so fucking determined to get better i swear to god lets do this bitch lets go
I don’t know who needs to hear this, but please don’t break promises you make to yourself just because it’s you the promise is being made to. You told yourself you’d go on a walk tomorrow morning? Do it. You said you’d get more consistent with your skincare routine? Make it happen. You promised yourself you would work on establishing boundaries regardless of who’s on the other side of them? Follow through with that. Don’t wake up the next day and go “well I don’t HAVE to do this” “it wouldn’t hurt to postpone this” “this isn’t a big deal” because it literally is. Every promise broken is another nail in the coffin of your self-actualization. It’s another major roadblock to developing healthy self-love and self-respect. Weigh promises you’ve made to yourself the same way you would weigh promises you’ve made to others.
I honestly tolerated such shitty behavior from other people before because it’s like. I didn’t respect myself enough to go through w things I want, so how can I expect other people to respect me enough to consider the way they treat me w care? And then it’s also so much easier to slip into the mentality of “they’re treating me horribly NOW but I’m sure they’ll do better in the future” “they’re not there yet but they will be” because that’s what you tell yourself when you don’t follow through w things. Other people’s subpar behavior towards you is acceptable because YOUR subpar behavior towards yourself is acceptable. I think this is what people mean when they say you have to love yourself in order to accept healthy love from other people. If you don’t think you’re worthy enough of following through w your own promises to yourself, why should you think that other people perceive you as worthy enough? It legitimately all starts w you.

The first week of university has started again and I started my new Master Public History. I am very curious where this will lead me and I'm trying to be more concentrated on my studies from now on.
Feel free to follow my irl best friend's studyblr~

I cannot emphasize this enough as a practical life skill: learn how to say no to authority figures. Learn how to tell them that nothing they can do to you will change your mind. Disappoint your parents. You have to live your own life.
”I know nobody cares but I finally cleaned my room after a whi-“ ME!!!! I CARE!!!!!!!!! I CARE SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YOURE AMAZING!!! KEEP GOING!!!!!!!! IM PROUD OF YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
hey what if i kept trying anyway because it’s my life and only i get to decide what to do with it
the hardest thing is when ur going through something terrible there is an awful middle phase of it when u don’t know if u can get through it or if you’ll ever be okay again and the truth is always you will get through it and you will absolutely be okay again but u just cant see it at the time
All i need is sunlight and plants🌞🌿✨.
in your 20s you must rediscover the joys of arts and crafts to stave off spiritual decay
