Recently, I’ve had to overcome a lot of things. I had to overcome leaving my comfort zone. I had to overcome meeting new people and making new friends. I had to overcome a few bad test scores and learn that long term, they don't matter.

Being an overcomer means that you have conquered something, you have achieved something that at one point you never thought you would. Once you have overcome one thing, it's easy to overcome another.

One of the biggest things about being an overcomer is to trust that you will be okay. The hardest thing that I had to overcome really ended up not being that difficult once I was on the right path. I learned that even though it will always be a constant battle, I will still be okay at the end of it.

Sometimes, the things that we have to overcome are things that are a constant in our life. For example, depression or anxiety. Those are not feelings that will disappear overnight, trust me, I wish that was the case. These kinds of things are constant battles, something that people are constantly overcoming every day. It might not be evident that they are facing that battle, but trust me, when you can overcome that feeling a little bit every day, it is one hell of a win in my book.

I was the kind of girl who had it all planned out. I had to overcome the idea that life is not always going to be the way you thought it would be. It is easy to think that life will be perfect and that you won’t have to battle anything. But I hate to break it to you, life definitely doesn’t go that way.

Look, sometimes, you are going to have to conquer little battles and sometimes, you’ll have to overcome some hard shit. Either way, you can do it. You can overcome anything if you put your mind to it.
