1. Don't let HATERS bring you down. Instead prove them WRONG!

Haters are people who want to see you fail. Don't give them your attention, just smile and let your success talk for you. REMEMBER whoever is trying to bring you down is already below you.


2. The importance of being authentic.

Be yourself! Love yourself! Cherish yourself! People are going to love you and appreciate the real you. If they don't, then they don't deserve to have you in their lives. People don't appreciate fakeness. Being fake is not a respectable quality, being authentic is.

3. Life is going to suck sometimes, but it will eventually get better.

Things aren't always going to be perfect. You will feel like the odds are against your favors, but those are all just temporary feelings. Life doesn't always go as we plan, but that doesn't mean it can't get better. It may take time, but hang in there buddy!

4. We don't have to pretend to be happy all the time.

Our life's don't always have to be picture perfect. Breaking down is totally acceptable. You don't always have to be the strong one. Crying is never a sign of weakness. The right people in your life will help you get through anything. Not being okay is totally okay.

6. Being different should be a thing you are proud of.

Always embrace how different you are, but most important surround yourself with people who appreciate what makes you different. What makes your different makes you beautiful. Be brave enough to be yourself and never let your guard down.


7. Words HURT!

Everything you say makes a different. The power of words can break or make people. In the negative connotation, some words can literally destroy us and mostly when the person who says it means a lot. Yes, this is a free country and you are allowed to state your opinion, but that doesn't mean you need to be rude.

People in high school grow up all the time. The person you were a day ago doesn't have to be the person you are today. Growing up means separating from friends, passions, hobbies and finding new things to like. IT MEANS MOVING ON. The only constant thing in life is change! Start changing from within, let go of what it was and trust me, the right transformation will happen.


9. Don't give up on love just because you others have hurt you.

Young love is hard. Sometimes we think we find the "love of our life" and it was just a casually silly fling for the other person. Your heart is going to get broken before finding the right one, but the key is to stop looking, but to never give up. The right love will come at the right time. The right person will love everything about you, even the thing you could imagine someone liking.

10. Never underestimate yourself because there is someone better.

Finding someone better than you in any passion is great. If you are the best then you need to get out of that safety zone and find a more challenging zone. Never think of yourself less if there is someone better, try to work on being better every day. "Never underestimate your own strength you were born with a purpose and are blessed with the power to achieve it." - Leon Brown

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
