Everyone is constantly running. Running in circles that are filled with anxiety, tenacious behaviors towards jobs and people, attitudes that unravel when you least expect it from the people you least expect it from. We are constantly surrounded by a stressed and damaged world and the one thing we don't need to add to our daily issues are simple issues that can be resolved by rethinking events and thoughts you have towards others and yourself.
Take a deep breath; in and out. Believe in yourself and realize what the bigger goal is in life and move past these small things:
1. Hatred Towards Others
Get over it and yourself. Move on to something better and more productive. This isn't helping you to be a better person or grow in any faith with God.
1 John 4:19-20 states:
We love because God first loved us. Whoever says, "I Love God," but hates his brother is a liar. The one who does not love his brother whom he has seen cannot love the God who he has not seen.
We must learn to move on and be gracious unto one another.
2. The Need to Constantly Judge Ourselves (it’s good to do it every once in a while because you have to be on top of yourself in order to excel and change within your life, but you have to be chill enough that you can be calm and be yourself.)
We aren't perfect. No one is. So stop being so dang hard on yourself for little things in life you are working on!
3. Looking at others and judging them
So many people I come upon look a certain way and I have no thought that I would talk to them and then they become the most amazing people that I have met.
We need to quit this stigma that looms over us of judging people based on the clothing they wear, overall aesthetic, first words, first impression in general.
You have times when you haven't been on your A game and had to make an impression right? Give other's some slack.
4. Worrying What Others Think
If this simple habit is put to rest, I promise most of your life problems will be solved. Constantly worrying about what other's think will put you in a state of anxiety that never leaves and follows you everywhere. Let it go by being confident in all you are and what you are doing. Every move, every motive you have to do something in life, own it.
OWN IT.
5. Bad Relationships:
They slowly tear you apart and bring you down to the bottom. We know you want that guy/girl who keeps playing you but say GOODBYE.
Find a man who loves you for your beautiful soul, has his/her own opinion and can treat you right.
6. Tinder and Bumble and any “hook up” dating sites.
These sites are purely for people who want to judge people in 5 seconds or less. How horrible is it that people look at your first photo for maybe 2 seconds and then swipe left and never look at you again? That is not what we are about in this life of letting things go. Your anxiety gets driven up the wall and heart starts beating, wondering if the guy across the line thinks you are pretty enough and your interests match enough? Get a life. Move on. Meet people in real life. Enjoy those people in real life. Date them.
7. Worrying completely about your financial situation
You're never going to have enough money ok? So go travel and enjoy life. Find someone to sponsor these trips; go somewhere for a mission trip, some kind of cause.
