About Today

So, I woke up this morning after a really bad night's sleep and thought about why am I actually sad? I had a horrendous time in high school and that's when my depression actually started. But then it got me thinking, I'm turning 18 this year, I'm graduating high school and I can put my past away for good. I realized that it's about time I learn from my past and get over it. So, I took few initiatives, I mean these might sound lame but sure did help me feel better. Instead of running away from things that hurt me, I wanna face them now. Instead of avoiding Instagram in fear of my past taking over me again, I decided to make it mine. I deleted all my previous chats and posts, I unfollowed people that make me feel insecure about myself, I decided to just stop texting toxic friends. I also felt a lot better after texting people that were always sweet to me. So, I made my Instagram a space for nothing but entertainment and motivation. I also changed the wallpapers on my phone and decided to get a new haircut lol. Well, these small steps that I took for myself, made me feel a lot better and I don't know how long this is going to last till my next mood swing hits but I decided to enjoy it while it lasts. It sure calls for a celebration that I'm feeling slightly motivated after months of suffering :)

So, you guys, tell me something that made you feel motivated, at least for just a minute.

Aww Thanks~ I hope you had a nice day too

Hi uniquecorn, I’m glad you’re taking initiative, that’s a big step. Something that made me feel motivated is following a routine. It helps me get stuff done without having to think too much about it.

I'm working on following a routine right now and I should be able to make progress in a week. Hopefully, I stay motivated from now on. Fingers crossed.

Well I'm really into music, and I feel very motivated and inspired just now by watching Lady Gaga sing the national anthem and Jennifer Lopez singing This Land Was Made For You And Me. And they both looked great too!!!!!!!!💖💖💖💖
