Learning to open up a bit more
@courteousNorth5140 Opening up to others can be quite difficult as it can make us feel vulnerable. However, it can have its benefits. Well done!
@lovelyWhisper66
Yeah, you're right, it definitely can have it's benefits, well, I'm very insecure about myself, so there is a lot of practise I have to do... But the support here helps a lot 😊
@courteousNorth5140 I'm so glad you are getting support here; it truly does feel nice and can help with insecurities as well. We are here for you! Also, I like your display picture (dp). :)
@lovelyWhisper66
😁 Thanks, love yours too
Turn something negative into something positive. Something negative, like big mistakes we make, is something we can learn from and improve ourselves by.
@Ryan22117 Exactly, we can view mistakes as learning opportunities. I'm so glad you have such a perspective; well done!
Never give up Hope.
@Sterndog73 Totally, hope is quite the motivation! Thanks for your encouraging post.
Hello
@turquoiseNest6678 Hello, and welcome to 7Cups! Let us know if you have any questions or concerns; we are happy to have you here.
Even with getting 60 steps in... I feel like Im falling backwards. Im struggling to be optimistic right now
@Allyoverboard
It's not always forward momentum. Sometimes you pause, or even slip back a bit. The important thing is that you don't give up! Enjoy the dance.
@Allyoverboard I agree with what they said, you gotta keep pushing forward! I know life can get really hard, but you are in a supportive community thats got your back. Its important to recognize that while youre struggling now, thats not what the future will look like and you really do have the power to determine what that looks like.
Im a strong believer that even if you take 10 steps back, it only matters that you end up taking 11 forward.
I've learned that I can be okay
I've learned that I should talk to someone when I'm not feeling good
@Kitkatfl1 We believe in you, and feel free to reach out to the listeners here if you ever wish to talk with someone. :)
I am stronger than I seem and smarter than I think, braver than I appear to be and because I don't stop, and don't give up, I am capable of more than I give myself credit for.
@Keeptryingdontstop You have so much potential, and I am glad you are cherishing yourself and your values. Well done!
I've learned that It's okay to not be okay
I've learned that there are good days and bad days and that is life
@Kitkatfl1 Indeed, there will be dark days, but they don't have to determine the rest of your life. Well done!
