You make your own opportunities.
Just by waking up in the morning, you are in a world full of opportunities. With every step you take you’re creating more chances and choices for yourself. You don’t have to wait for the stars to align. Just by being you, you create your own opportunities.
Today remind yourself: I make my own opportunities.
You are one tough cookie.
You are no pushover. You take no crap. You’re nobody’s doormat. Sure, it’s great to ask for help (and people would be happy to help you), but it’s impressive the things you handle on your own. To mix metaphors, when the chips are down, you come out swinging.
Today remind yourself: I am one tough cookie.
You are exactly where you should be.
In a lot of ways, you’re ahead of the game. So many things are going right in your life that there is absolutely no need to worry. I know it’s tough not to dwell on setbacks but please believe me when I say that you’re exactly where you need to be right now. You’ve made all the right choices.
Today remind yourself: I’m exactly where I should be.
You're fucking awesome.
Have I told you lately how great you are? Well I’m telling you now: You’re fucking awesome! Though they may not have told you directly, you’ve inspired awe in quite a few people over the years. I’m certain you’re going to do it again today without even trying. Keep up the good work, pal.
Today remind yourself: I’m fucking awesome.
