I don’t believe in coincidences.
I think that things happen the way that they are supposed to.
When you really look at and evaluate every experience you’ve had, it’s a direct result of your actions and thoughts.
Don’t fight or wish away unexpected occurrences.
In time, and in its own way, it will prove to better your life in some way.
I’m a firm believer that everything happens for a reason.
Tap..✌️
Expectations aren’t wrong.
Unrealistic expectations are the problem, and that’s in your control, so that’s your problem.
Fix your stupid brain before blaming someone else.
It’s normal for us to overanalyze and overcomplicate just about everything.
We often lead complex lives where the solutions can seem out of reach.
They say the simplest answer is usually correct.
So when I get overwhelmed, I come back to this profound notion of simplicity.
When in doubt, simplify the clutter of your mind.
Imagine your problem is a messy knot and visualize yourself untying it.
Understand that just as it is complicated to make things simple, it is simple to make things complicated as well.
Tap..✌️
If you are persistent,
you will get it.
If you are consistent,
you will keep it.
Beauty also looks like:
• Authenticity.
• Honesty.
• Commitment.
• Consistency.
• Lightheartedness.
• Good moral values.
• Emotional intelligence.
• A kind and grateful heart.
• A desire to do and be better.
Tap..✌️
Authenticity requires
vulnerability,
transparency,
&
integrity.
Nobody is asking you to be perfect.
It’s enough to just do the best you can do today with what you have inside you right now.
Oftentimes, we put too much pressure on ourselves to please other people.
Whatever you feel when you wake up is good enough; just start with that and make the most of today.
Start where you are.
Use what you have.
Do what you can.
Tap..✌️
If you feel like others aren’t treating you with respect, check your price tag.
Maybe you subconsciously marked yourself down.
Because it’s YOU who tells others what you’re worth by showing them what you’re willing to accept for your time and attention.
Get off the clearance rack!!
– Marcandangel.
You can change your location,
you can meet new people,
and still have the same old problems.
To truly change your life,
you need to look inward,
get to know and love yourself,
and heal the trauma and dense conditioning in your mind.
This is how you get to the root.
Internal changes have a significant external impact.

5 things to quit:
1. Trying to please everyone.
2. Fearing change.
3. Living in the past.
4. Putting yourself down.
5. Overthinking.
The more you act out what you wish to see in the world, the more you’ll inspire others to do the same.
It really is that simple.
If you want to change, you have to be the change that’s needed.
Make a list of things you believe in and don’t be afraid to stand up for what you’re passionate about.
Be the change you wish to see in the world.
Tap..✌️
The most important lesson I’ve learned over this past year is,
don’t let anybody make you cruel.
No matter how badly you want to give the world a taste of its own bitter medicine,
it is never worth losing yourself.
Use your money to;
– Look better (grooming).
– Feel better (food choices).
– Make more money (invest).
Use your time to;
– Look better (gym).
– Feel better (meditation).
– Make more money (skills).
Spend your time and money on things that will improve your quality of life.
Tap..✌️
You have to commit to getting up early.
You have to commit to taking care of your responsibilities.
You have to be honest with yourself.
You have to revaluate your priorites.
Nobody is going to do it for you.
These are your goals.
These are your dreams.
Everything you want starts and ends with you.
Tap..✌️
Society exists only as a mental concept.
In the real world; there are only individuals.
– Oscar Wilde.
The more you act out what you wish to see in the world, the more you’ll inspire others to do the same.

If you want to change, you have to be the change that’s needed.
Make a list of things you believe in and don’t be afraid to stand up for what you’re passionate about.
Be the change you wish to see in the world.
Tap..✌️
The greatest gift you can give to a special someone is your TIME.
Its like you’re giving the portion of your life that you can never bring back.
Value your TIME.
Give yourself permission to do it badly at first.
Improve as you go.
Don’t aim for perfection.
PERFECTION doesn’t exist.
Perfectionism is a form of procrastination.
If you give into it, it will hold you back from fully expressing yourself and kill your creative energy.
Tap..✌️
Happiness doesn’t start with a relationship.
Happiness doesn’t start with a vacation.
Happiness doesn’t start with a job.
Happiness doesn’t start with money.
It’s how you deal with stress in each little moment that determines how well you achieve happiness in the end.
If you want life to be happier, you need to change your present response.
Happiness starts with you.
Tap..✌️
Staying positive doesn’t mean you have to be happy all of the time.
It means that even on hard days you know that there are better ones coming.
No amount of anxiety will change your future.
No amount of regret will change your past.
Peace is found in acceptance:
• Accept imperfection.
• Accept uncertainty.
• Accept the uncontrollable.
You don’t have to understand.
You don’t have to tolerate.
You don’t even have to forget something.
But if you want peace, you must accept it.
Acceptance is peace.

Don’t waste words on people who deserve your silence.

Don’t ruin a good today by thinking about a bad yesterday.
Let it go.
Just show up, as you are.
You don’t have to look or feel great.
You don’t have to be prepared for each challenge or know all the hows of every situation.
You don’t have to be fearless, or have all the answers, or be 100% ready.
Nobody is any of these things.
Nobody ever was.
It’s not about being perfect, at all.
You just have to show up, as you are,
despite all the objections and insecurities of your mind,
despite each and every fear that threatens to hold you back,
despite the limitations and criticisms others will place on you.
This is your life, your journey, your adventure, and all it’s asking of you is to show up for it, as you are.
That’s enough.
That’s more than enough.
That’s everything.
(Not my words.)
Tap..✌️

One is called yesterday and the other is called tomorrow.
So today is the right day to love, believe, do, and mostly live.
Gyms don’t want you to workout.
Their entire business model is contingent on you not going.
The average Planet Fitness has 7,500 memberships but can only host 700 workouts per day.
Half of the members never step foot inside.
This is the case for most low-cost gyms, and it’s also why these gyms can afford to have such low costs.
Might be a little extra motivation to know that they are literally betting on you not going.
This world is designed to keep you unhealthy & unhappy.
Stand up for yourself.
Tap..✌️
Don’t be in such a rush to figure everything out.
Embrace the unknown and let your life surprise you.
Life is rarely ever predictable.
The truth is: we were never guaranteed that we would have the answers for everything or feel certainty in every situation.
That’s the part of this journey’s adventure to get from where we are to where we want to be, we are required to trust, hope, and believe, and dare to blaze the trail even when the path in front of us looks near impossible.
The secret to life isn’t about knowing the future or having the perfect roadmap, but rather having faith for the future and the spirit of a pioneer.
IT’S OKAY NOT TO KNOW HOW THINGS ARE GOING TO TURN OUT.
Tap..✌️
Sometimes what didn’t work out for you really worked out for you.
Read it again.
Please stop overthinking life like you have to have an answer to every feeling or situation.
That’s not how life works.
We figure it all out by just living.
We figure it all out by fucking up.
We figure it all out by missing an opportunity.
We figure it all out by seeking advice and not taking it.
We learn what’s important and what isn’t.
Sometimes we have no fucking idea what to do and that’s okay.
Always trust your gut and know that everything will work out exactly the way it’s supposed to.
It always does.
Relax, we were never in control anyway.

Do well, live well and dress really well.
Do what you love, love what you do.
Start living.

This moment right here, while you’re reading this, is all you have.
You have yourself,
You have your life,

Try to live in the moment.
Appreciate the life you are living right now and how blessed you are to still be alive today.

If this is not the life you want to live, stop.

And everyone is entitled to that, without judgment.
So the next time you look at someone’s life covetously, remember you may not want to endure what they are enduring right now, at this moment, whilst they sit so quietly before you, looking like a calm ocean on a sunny day.
Remember how vast the ocean’s boundaries are.
Whilst somewhere the water is calm, in another place in the very same ocean, there is a colossal storm.
