It's safe to say that life is tough. It knocks us down over and over again. We get discouraged, we lose hope and sometimes it's hard to see past the bad. Every girl is different and we all go through different obstacles, but we are all beautiful in our own way. We have a fire inside of us that shines through, whether we notice it or not. This is a fire that should never be brought down, no matter what we go through and no matter what people say about us.
Girls can be mean; we all know this. Girls say negative things about others just to make themselves feel better. We get discouraged about our body image. We feel like we have less worth when a guy we like treats us badly. All of this is normal and can get the best of everyone.
Sometimes we just have to find the beauty in life in our own ways. We have to motivate ourselves to be positive. We have to put ourselves first and focus on the most important things in life. We have to focus on our goals, our family and our friends that we love the most. That boy that says he likes you but talks to other girls does not matter. That rude comment from a girl that doesn't know you does not matter.
I know it's hard to remember these things when we're upset and discouraged, but it's important to always love ourselves and to knock out the negativity. So, here are some quotes to read when you're feeling down. They are uplifting, positive and motivational; every girl should live by them.

3. "I can’t think of any better representation of beauty than someone who is unafraid to be herself.” - Emma Stone
4."Some women choose to follow men, and some women choose to follow their dreams. If you’re wondering which way to go, remember that your career will never wake up and tell you that it doesn’t love you anymore. — Lady Gaga"
5."I have come to realize making yourself happy is most important. Never be ashamed of how you feel. You have the right to feel any emotion you want, and do what makes you happy. That’s my life motto." — Demi Lovato
6. "I believe in being strong when everything seems to be going wrong. I believe that happy girls are the prettiest girls. I believe that tomorrow is another day, and I believe in miracles."- Audrey Hepburn

So, ladies, life is going to bring you down sometimes. You are going to feel stressed, exhausted, discouraged and every other negative emotion in the book. All of that just comes with life, but it's up to you to turn things around.
Take a second to reflect on who you are. Love yourself, be the best you can be and never stop striving to reach your goals. Take control of your life and make your world the best you can make it.
