#1  Journal 📝


Write your achievements. Store the compliments in one place.


Whenever you feel you aren't good enough, look at this positive collection 😊


It will give you hope.

#2  Focus on what you see. Not on how you feel.


You might see great results, but your heart might still think you’re worthless 😔


Shut your inner voice up, especially when the results tell you otherwise.

#3  Celebrate your successes (even the small ones)


Take joy when you overcome an obstacle 😀


Iterate to your subconscious:

• you deserve the praise coming your way, and

• you can crush even bigger problems 💪

#4 Let go of perfectionism. Embrace authenticity.


Don't try to be "perfect" in everything.


• Make mistakes,

• learn from them, and

• embrace them as parts of your growth 🌱

#5 Say "yes" to opportunities


Figure out how to make them work later.


If you can’t find a way, delegate it to someone else.


But give yourself the first chance 😇
