A message for all my artist/writer friends
- DRINK WATER!
- Get up right now and stretch
- Remember to flex your wrists
- Don’t hunch over too much
- That playlist probably ended an hour ago
- Make sure you adjust your eyes to natural light
- Make sure the light in the room is on! Don’t you dare strain your eyes!
- What time is it? You want to get to sleep on time!
- Make sure you remember this piece and FINISH IT before starting something new!
- Your computer files are a mess. Clean them up.
- If you have a pet, hug it! Animals make you happy!
- DRINK WATER!
- Don’t starve yourself! When did you last eat?
- Not good enough? Rubbish! People will love your work regardless!
- Did you tell your friends you love them today?
- Don’t forget to stretch, eat and drink!
- I love you all. ❤

friendly reminder: BOYS, YALL ARE INCREDIBLE AND PRECIOUS AND SMART AS HELL. SEIZE THE DAY AND DO SOMETHING GREAT
allow yourself to be loved. by friends, by family, by significant others, by everything, by yourself. you deserve to be cherished and appreciated by people that want you in their lives. don’t let the fear of what could happen stop you from embracing the love being offered to you.
i never want my friends to feel pressured to live up to an idea of how i see them bc that’s exhausting and i understand ppl especially the ones im close to have the ability to change and the right to exercise that ability.

“You are worth finding. Worth knowing. Worth loving. You and all your one million layers. Always hold that close.”
— Danielle Doby
Building Self-Esteem when you’re Struggling with Depression
1. Get into the habit of challenging your thinking – especially when it falls into the same old repeated, negative patterns.
2. Keep a thankfulness journal – and deliberately look for the good things in your life.
3. Spend time with people who can see your strengths, and who make you feel good about yourself.
4. Keep some photos or mementos that remind you of your passions – so theses can help inspire you to love your life again.
5. Leave positive notes and quotes around your room, or inside your wallet, or on your desk, or phone.
6. See failure as a stepping stone that leads to further growth – and as something that is common, and experienced by us all.
7. Deliberately nurture and care for yourself – and see this as essential, and a top priority.

“One of the hardest lessons in life is letting go. Whether it’s guilt, love, anger, loss or betrayal, change is never easy. We fight to hold on and we fight to let go.”
