In Between A Rock and A Pickle

These past few months have been tough on me. I went from being this confident girl to drowning in my own depression. I went from being sadly single, to being happily taken, then back to being sort of single and sort of taken. My school life isn't has great as it should be and I no one else to blame but myself. What have I decided to do? I have decided to keep moving forward.

A couple of days ago I got into a bit of a discussion with my parents about my future. It's hard hearing the truth out of someone else's mouth but nevertheless, it's the truth. It was exactly the fight I needed to confront some inner demons. So here I am, starting over with this blog. I won't delete any post, I won't change the theme.

I'm going to start writing again. I'm getting back to the root of me and starting new. I think everyone wants to start new. So what steps have I started taking?

1. You need to go back to the idea of, "Who, What, Where and Why?" 
Who do you want to be? What do you want to be? Where do you want to be? Why do you want it? Those are some of the questions I have been asking myself these questions for the past couple of days. I have to decided who I want to be and take steps to become that.

2. Stop giving yourself long-term goals.
Long term goals are good and are made with the right intentions but a lot of times we have these goals but don't even have a plan to get there. Every night I try to make a list of goals I want to accomplish for the next day. When I accomplish them, I cross them off my list. My mother once told me that nothing feels better than crossing something off your list; she was right. 

3. Don't be so hard on yourself. 
Sometimes things don't go our way. Life happens which can create a problem from us reaching our goals. Don't get down ourself. Look at the problem as something that will make you stronger (cue Christina Aguilera's "Fighter"). You can do this. We can do this ladies!
