“Never Stop believing in hope. Miracles happen everyday.” – Kelly’s Treehouse

Below are some more wonderful thoughts to hold onto when going through a tough time. I know they helped me when I was struggling mentally and emotionally.

Everything can change in a minute!

Always believe that wonderful things can happen!

Things are being worked out for the best!

I wrote them out in notebooks, printed them, and hung them on my office walls, I even painted “Always believe that wonderful things can happen!” on my bathroom mirror a few years ago!

Struggling to have hope during times of difficulty is a real thing.

I found it was tied to how I felt about myself.

Back then I didn’t believe I was worthy of good things happening; I had come to believe I deserved all the struggles and the traumas I went through.

That really showed the level of inner damage I had sustained from internalizing the negative messaging I had received.

As you work on holding onto hope, please also practice starting to suspend inner judgment of yourself. Practice NOT saying the negative things you might tell yourself when you feel you’ve messed up!

Please also start to speak gently to yourself. Start to reassure yourself.

These are learned skills.

They may not feel natural at first, and maybe not for quite a while, but trust me, you need to hear positive things from yourself!

It will take practice, perseverance, and patience to keep at it until you start to feel okay about hearing yourself speak nicely to yourself!

You ARE worthy of hearing nice words! You ARE worthy of feeling better! You ARE worthy of feeling positive! You ARE worthy of good things happening in your life!

Here’s some more encouragement:

• Don’t be pushed by your problems; be led by your dreams.
• Sometimes, when we don’t have the courage to change, everything changes around us to direct us to a new path.
• Not all storms come to disrupt your life, Some come to clear your path.
• Good things are going to happen. Have faith. Stay positive.
• Don’t be afraid to choose a different path than others!
• The power of words
• Resilience is knowing that YOU are the only one that has the power and the responsibility to pick yourself up
• I do not allow others to influence my thinking unless it is positive or uplifting.
• Every thought we think is creating our future
• Rearrange the letters in Depression, you’ll get “I pressed on”
• BAD, AWFUL days: how do we get over them?
• Breathe, Darling. This is just a chapter. It’s not your whole story.
• Our inner head space… doing the inner shadow work
• Do not become small for people who refuse to grow!
• Don’t be afraid to start all over again. You may like your new story better.
• An authentic life does not require anyone else’s approval for your creative choices
• Just because you’re struggling does not mean you’re failing
• Choices, Chances, Changes. You must make a Choice to take a Chance or your life will never Change.
• How people treat you is their karma… How you react is yours…
• It is always an inside work. It starts within us
• By being yourself you put something beautiful into the world that was not there before!
• If you focus too hard on the problem, the solution can often evade you.
