You are not a failure.
Failing doesn't make you a failure. It makes you human.
You can do this.
It seems difficult right now, and perhaps it is. Whether it's adjusting to a new job, working on a big project at work or school, or trying to break a bad habit, it's not always going to be easy. But nothing worth having or achieving is.
There is no shame in asking for help.
Sometimes we let our pride get in the way of seeking guidance, because we don't want to come across as weak or needy. But there is nothing wrong with acknowledging that you don't know everything, or that you're having trouble understanding something.
Take a break.
Some issues take time and perspective to be resolved.
It gets better.
Just because you can't see the light at the end of the tunnel doesn't mean that it's not there.
You are in control.
The insecurities and demons that we struggle with only have the power to control us if we give them that power.
Remember all of the things that you've accomplished in the past.
It's easy to focus on what we did wrong or what we could have done better. While our mistakes are important to learn from, they are also important to let go of once they have taught us everything that they can. You can't change the past, but you can always shape the future.
It's okay to be frustrated when something doesn't work out.
It means you care.
Your failures and mistakes do not define you.
How you deal with them does.
You're not alone.
There are over 7.4 billion people in the world. You are not the only person who hits a bump in the road every once in awhile.
Hitting a low point in life isn't the end of the world.
It's an opportunity to learn how to climb.
Get out of your own head.
Things usually aren't as bad as we make them out to be in our minds, whether you're worried about how well you did on an exam, what your boss thought about your presentation at work, or how your date with the cute person in the cubicle across from you went.
Give it everything that you have.
Refuse to throw in the towel before giving it every last bit of yourself, because at least then you can say that you did everything in your power and there isn't anything you would or could change.
There is always someone to turn to in times of need.
You may not see it, because a lot of people don't express how much they care about their loved ones in direct or obvious ways on a daily basis. Maybe nobody knows that you need help, or maybe they do but they don't reach out because they don't want to seem clingy or overbearing. That doesn't change how they feel about you, nor does it lessen how willing they are to support you.
Everything is going to be okay.
I promise.
