Life and Wellness Tips (Pearls of Wisdom) from the Community! (Part 1 of ??)
@resilience2025
I would say, it's okay to not have it figured out all at once! Existing and embracing the uncertainty of life is joy in itself! Be excited about how things can turn up for you because they will always turn for the better!
There's no perfect timing for anything in life, you can never be fully prepared so just take action, jump into something you have always been avoiding and then see, how your confidence brightens!

As for my own little nugget of wisdom - Embrace the chaos:smile: Life’s a little messy but sometimes that’s where the magic happens. ✨ Also, you don’t have to do it all alone and sometimes sharing the load makes it a lot easier 💛

I am always inspired when I watch or read quotes from Brené Brown who defines daring to set boundaries as having the courage to love oneself, even when it might disappoint others. Once we realise that boundaries are about self-respect and being compassion to others they become so much easier to put in place! Setting boundaries is about recognising where personal responsibility ends and another person's begins.
Something I find useful that helps me significantly is the idea of protecting our peace. It's so important to us and our energy is sacred but often we put people before our own peace. "Boundaries are not walls but they are bridges to self-respect" - Brené Brown.

Mine would be to ‘Forgive others…but also ourselves’…. so often we accept and forgive the mistakes of others but when it comes to ourselves…we come down so much harder on ourselves! Why do we do this! I know I do and then have to remind myself that I’m only human and I need to extend that forgiveness and compassion to myself 🌹

✨ Emotionally safe relationships can easily be confused with boredom for someone who has never felt safe. If you’re really bored in a relationship, it might just be that you finally feel safe with someone. Or you could genuinely be bored.
✨ The person in your life who never misses a deadline, smiles the biggest, never complains, and seemingly has it all…there’s a good chance that person would love to be checked on.
✨ Learning to disengage from unhealthy interactions is a form of rest. Learning to be ok with not having the last word is a form of rest. Learning to mind your business is a form of rest. Be mindful of the ways you deplete yourself of your energy.
✨ One of the best things I have ever done for my mental health was a 10 minute long core values exercise I found on Google. If you feel lost, broken, empty, or have no idea what to do in life right now, 10/10 would highly recommend figuring out what your core values are if you don’t already know.

It's valuable to cultivate an open mind, particularly when encountering new experiences. If you approach something with a preconceived notion of disliking it, you might miss the opportunity to discover genuine enjoyment.
Additionally, practicing acceptance for aspects of your life that are currently beyond your control is essential. While you may aspire to change these circumstances in the future, it's important to acknowledge and accept the present moment. Transformation takes time, especially when external factors, like parental expectations, influence your decisions.
Finally, self- forgiveness is a crucial step towards emotional well-being. It involves acknowledging and processing the challenging emotions you've experienced in relation to what's bothering you, allowing yourself to learn from these experiences and move forward. This process can help you release guilt, shame, and self-criticism, ultimately leading to greater peace and personal growth.
@Heather225
never allow what others say to put you down to be taken as truth. they many think they know you but most times they know you very little.
Be kind to yourself. Not everyone will like you. Be ready to accept that. Not everyone will agree with you. Be ready to understand others.
Healing takes time. And you need to be willing to give yourself time to grow. It doesn't happen in one day.
Enjoy the life you have been given by God. Remember that you are not alone. Help others in need and suffering. Because no one is perfect in this world and we need each other's support and help.
- When it comes to money & investing, "don't put all your eggs in one basket" is one of the truest maxims ever coined.
- As a wise old finance professional once told me: "If it flies, floats, or f***s, rent it." In other words, not all assets retain value over time!
- When someone reveals who (s)he really is, believe what you saw & heard.
@Heather225
Thankyou H💖for getting it here! It feels so good to read all of these together. I appreciate everybody who has been contributing their wisdom seeds to this place. Grateful for their time and efforts.
I look forward to reading what other great hearts have to say! 🫶Let's save mine for some other good time hehe!😁till my brain activates some bit.
Nobody is perfect. we all have flaws and thats ok, it makes us human.
Doing what you can when you can to foster a better world and you is foundations to build on.
learning to control your thoughts is the starting block underpinning your emotions.
We all leave this world with what we were brought into it with. Other than our memories and impact we have had on others, maybe families raised. The end is always the same. It’s the time until that point that defines who we are.
Side note, mistakes are a part of life guaranteed, it’s how we learn and grow from them.
I truly love this! My small pearl of wisdom: “in the end, *** is the best fertilizer for growing flowers.”
