When life hands you lemons... You must learn how to make lemonade.

Heartbreak comes in many forms; however, I believe that it frequently comes back to disappointment. You have your heart set on something and it inevitably doesn't work out the way you want it to. Or you believe in someone and they did not meet your expectations, or worse, they did.

In any case, all of us will have our hearts broken at some point or another. The trick is to know how to pick up the pieces and move on from it. These are a few hacks to doing just that:

Find something that you love, and immerse yourself into it.

You cannot imagine the beauty that comes out of pain. Some of the greatest artist created their best works when they were feeling their worst.

Read a book.

Sometimes all you need is an escape from reality. Pick up a good book about something that you're interested in and it is sure to take you places.

Explore the outdoors.

Take a breath of fresh air. Step outside and take in all of the beauty that is around you, and know that everything will be okay.

Watch a movie or binge watch a series.

You laugh, you cry, and at the end of the day, you think about something other than what you're going through.

Retail therapy

This can be dangerous if you're a broke college student, however, sometimes a nice bath bomb makes all the difference.

Find the silver lining.

Every cloud has a silver lining. Every bad situation has some good to come of it, even if the only good is that you learn and grow from it.
