It's one thing to fight without fear it's quite another without hope, but it happens to us all. Finding inspiration when hope is lost can be your biggest battle but to hold on and fight and find that last ounce in you that tells you there is light at the end of the tunnel, that the battle isn't lost is truly life-changing. Find your reserves and never give up.

One of the most difficult challenges we face is recognising that a person we love does not feel the same in return. If their love is conditional, it's not love. It's controlling. Yes, there are times we all must experience tough love, but that hurts them just as much as it hurts you. The difference is tough love is selfless conditional love is selfish. Want to know how to tell the difference, people who love you won't demean you to others. They love you enough not to shame you for your faults.

Genuinely what do you have to lose? Our emotions have power and you must gain control. What is holding you back from what you want to achieve?

Our character is formed out of a lifetime of learning mostly from tough times and mistakes. If you are having a tough time right now there is hope, you're not alone, you will come out the other side stronger and better than you were before.

People Reveal Toxic Behaviors In Their Relationships That They Normalized, And Some Of These Are So Overlooked - BuzzFeed

People Are Revealing The Toxic Behaviors In Their Relationships They Thought Were Completely Normal "My partner will take any disagreement or criticism and throw his hands up and say, 'I feel like I can never do anything right,' and walk away instead of having a discussion."

I focus a lot on who you surround yourself with. The reason for this is your environment and the people within it can seriously damage your health. You can not grow or recover if you stay around the wrong people. Indeed I'd go as far as to say living with a narcissist is modern-day second-hand smoke.

Happiness isn't bought it's practiced. Love for oneself is something we work on through meditation/mindfulness and focussed thought. Pick one negative viewpoint you have of yourself and ask when did I decide I was too/not etc..... and then ask yourself what other advice or rebuke do I take seriously from a child? Don't let that very young version of you prevent you from being happy.

Our darkness is a trial. We are unique amongst the animal kingdom in that we are born premature and must learn so much after birth. We are intelligent because we can adapt and learn. The downside is that we must also learn the hard way. Our trials and tribulations is a test; it's where we grow, and if we succeed, we become stronger and better from them.

Avoid judgement on a book you haven't read in its entirety. No one can know someone's story. Indeed most people judge based on reviews from others who haven't read it either. No one is qualified to judge another you have no idea what they have been through. And if you are the victim of this judgement, they are revealing more about their own character than they reveal of yours. Stay beautiful; stay away.

My favourite poem is IF by Rudyard Kipling. I have the entire poem hung on the wall of my office. I read the poem daily and do my best to live to its truth. This line always hits home. You will hear hurtful things said about you. Don't let them get you.

But it's worth asking yourself why you resonate so strongly with someone who desperately needed 'fixing' in the first place.

Our toxic romantic and non-romantic attachments often tell a story about an issue we have within ourselves.

No affection can fill the void in someone who doesn't love themselves.

There is no independence in dependency.

There is no security in attaching yourself to a secure person.

You won't make healthy decisions about someone else until you have a healthy relationship with yourself.

It's about time you stop worrying about what other people think of you and realize you are as awesome as you really are.

We can not help but be influenced by who we surround ourselves with. When in uplifting company, we aspire, and when we are in negative company, we fall way short of our best. I know you know this, but how can you practice this. Decide what you want and who you want to be. Sometimes we must make tough decisions to have what we need.
