I know right now you're probably telling yourself that you will never accomplish the resolutions you wrote. That its completely pointless for you to even try. And with that attitude, you certainly won't achieve anything. So get rid of all your doubts and start out with a clean slate, much like the new year.

Forget about the past, and forget about the other times you may have tried to change something. This time is different. This time, you will get the results you want. But first, you need to realize the great potential you have and put it to good use. You can truly accomplish anything if you put your mind to it.

Confidence is the key to change. Stand tall and strong, knowing you can face whatever obstacles life has to throw at you. Take pride in the obstacles, because its all a part of the journey and some day it may make a really great story. Have a good support system, to help you up when you get knocked down. Even though you are strong, know that its okay to ask for help. Write your goals down and hang it in plain sight, that way you're always reminded of your goals because its never out of sight.

Think about how proud you'll be when you accomplish your goal and allow it to motivate you for when life is low. Remind yourself that change is good and growth is essential. Think about the look on your haters faces whenever they see that you did what you set out to do. Your proved them wrong. You're strong. You can dream big. You can do this.

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.
