This Is For The Girls Who...

Never settle for less than you deserve.

This Is For The Girls Who...
Life Coach Tiffany Hammond

This goes out to all the girls who have had their heart broken one time too many. The ones who believe they're not worth it. The ones who settle for less than they deserve.

This is for the girls who are awake at two in the morning thinking of someone who doesn't think twice about them. This is for the girls who put their all into someone and get little to nothing in return. This is for the girls who put up with getting treated like trash, just for the cute little moments that happen every now and then.

This is for the girls who have wasted way too many tears on a guy who doesn't deserve them. This is for the girls who can't face getting out of bed because they can't handle the pain. This is for the girls who try so hard for someone who doesn't notice them one bit. This is for the girls who stay when it's time to walk away.

Why do we put up with less than we deserve? Why do we put ourselves through all this? Why do we care so much? Why don't we ever realize that we deserve more? When will the day come that we realize that all of this heartbreak isn't worth our time?

You deserve so much more than what you're going through or what you have been through. You shouldn't be wasting your time on someone that doesn't give you all that you deserve. Sulking and wallowing in your pain and pity won't make anything better. You have to draw the happiness from within yourself, and honestly, a guy should never be your source of happiness.

Remember, actions speak so much louder than words ever will. If you're not getting the effort and dedication you deserve, he's not in it fully and you shouldn't be wasting your time. It's okay to stand up and speak your mind, but don't fight with no fight in return. There's a point when it's just not worth it anymore; when it's draining you, destroying you, and consuming you.

Don't physically, emotionally, and mentally harm yourself over someone. Someone who cares about you should never bring you that kind of pain. You should be treated like a princess (or a queen). You shouldn't be second guessing everything. You should be getting just as much as you put in. You should be smiling, not crying. You shouldn't have to be worrying about what's going on and if you're on his mind.

Stand up. Wipe your tears. Lift your head up. Say a little prayer. Put on some Justin Bieber and dance around your room. Watch a good movie with your girls. Go get a big ice cream sundae. Realize that you're worth so much more. Never let someone who doesn't give you all that you deserve ruin your day.

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.
