Toxic, Older-boyfriend Simon Riley...

after getting back on tumblr, Instagram became a bit meh for me 😐

I remember one of the most hurtful things someone said to me was "you have too big of a personality for me." It broke my heart. Fast forward to a few years later, I got offered an amazing opportunity because of my "vibrant" personality. Don't change for anyone. The right people will eventually come into your life with love for every part of you.

when hayao miyazaki said that true love was two people inspiring each other to live…recognizing just how hard living is, putting one foot in front of the other every day, how easy it is to lose our passion for it…… that’s the real shit

Ngl college application season is dawning on me, I’m both incredibly nervous and excited

STOP WITH THE LOGIC

Manifesting is not supposed to be logic, be bold, be delusional, crazy and manifest your biggest dreams or the craziest things that you would like that you can think of, are you indecisive between two things remember that circumstances don't matter and you can change ANYTHING in ANYTIME so if you end up not liking one, just manifest the other one!! To emeber that the how also doesn't matter!! I am literally manifesting having a magical wardrobe, where I just look at something I like and it magically appears in my closet, not sure if I had results YET because I am messy and I just let my things outside of it to be more pratical so I haven't opened my wardrobe yet to know lol. But I know that I'll get my desires no matter what because they are MINE. It has no other choice other than becoming a fact in the 3d.

my new favorite obsession are stimboards

Essentialism, Greg McKeown

Be highly selective. Don’t attend meetings when you have nothing to contribute, don’t read newsletters if you already know or if it doesn’t really matter to you. Stop moving an inch forward in a million different directions and start gaining momentum in getting one major thing done.

Pursue less but better in a disciplined way

Warren Buffet owes 90% of his wealth to just 10 investments

On trade offs: don’t ask ‘what do I want to give up?’ ask ‘what do I want to go big on?’

Less, but better : if trying to start a journaling habit, start by always writing less than you want to. Usually, on the first day, you’ll write many pages, and then you’ll quickly start to dreading having to write so much. Until you’ve made journaling a habit, write very little.

Your strategy can’t be “pretty clear”. Anyone who wears glasses knows there is a difference between “pretty clear” and “really clear”.

Learn the art of the slow yes and the quick no

Beware the sunk cost bias: continuing something we would otherwise move on from, simply because we have already invested time or money in it. It’s a vicious cycle

To attain knowledge, add things everyday. To attain wisdom, subtract things everyday. - Lao Tzu

Cues are essential in making routines smoother: if you charge your phone each night and you’d like to start journaling, put your journal right by your charger

Tackle your routines one by one: to get big results, we must start small

Eat mindfully. Live in the moment

Check in often to ensure meaningful progress
