We can be so hard on ourselves in our 20's. We're working towards getting a career, making money, moving out, and finding the perfect guy. Life can be stressful. Sometimes we struggle just to stay afloat. However, we need to stop being so hard on ourselves because...
1. Guys aren't everything.
You are strong and can still achieve
2. You're going to make mistakes, but use them as an opportunity to learn.
Every time we mess up, it's an opportunity to better ourselves.
3. You are beautiful with or without makeup.
Either way, you're still a goddess.
4. Your ex is an ex for a reason.
Yes, some people do get back with their ex and stay with them forever, but it's rare. Leave them in the past and move on. There's plenty of fish in the sea!
5. There are far more important things than getting married and having babies.
It will all come with time, so sit back and enjoy the life you have right now.
6. Cut out all of the negative people in your life.
It might not be easy, but you'll thank yourself later on.
7. Never give up on your dreams for anyone.
If they don't like them, then they're not worth being a part of your life.
8. You might not have your life figured out right now, but that's OK.
It takes time.
9. Failure does not mean you're weak.
It happens to us all.
10. You will never forget your first love.
But they certainly won't be your last.
11. Don't date just to date. It's not worth it.
Spend the weekends taking spontaneous road trips with your friends or volunteering at the animal shelter.
12. It's OK to ask for help.
Sometimes you just can't do it by yourself.
13. You are so much more important than your appearance.
It's the inside that counts, right?
14. People are going to disappoint you.
But don't let them change you or drag you down.
15. Your personal and mental health is important.
DON'T neglect it.
16. You don't have to do something if you don't want to.
You have a mind of your own, so please don't give into peer pressure.
17. You should never settle.
There's someone out there for you, it just takes
18. You family will always be there for you.
Just because you're an "adult," that doesn't mean you can't call your mom when you're having a bad day.
19. You don't need a million friends; it's your few close friends that matter.
They're the ones that will have your back at the end of the day.
20. Your 20's will be the best (and worst) years of your life.
Embrace them.
