#win – inside her broken mind

Survive

You will have to survive some hard hits to make it. Prior to going to college, I was working in a department store in a local town and i was made fun of. I remember one day this girl that I went to primary school with came to the store saw me and asked for a shoes. As I was getting the shoes for her she started laughing at me. She had already started college and was in her 2 year or so, I guess to her, that’s where I would always stay. It didn’t break me but I held that memory.

I would have more instances like this, then finally the one that hit me to my core. This other girl who she and I went to high school together, and pretty much shared everything walked into the store. I was so happy to see her and with excitement I greeted her. She stared me dead in the eyes pretended that she didn’t know me then walked away. I was stunned, and I remembered going home and crying because of how she behaved. But I’m a survivor and survivors survive.

That blow hit me hard, I thought on it for long and processed it. A couple months later I got accepted into college and was to start the summer of the same year (which I did). Coincidentally, this high school friend heard through the grape vine that I was starting school and started texting me again and I shut it down immediately!

Some persons never wants to be in your struggles, but they will always want to be in your victory. Know when to sever ties, and never let your current situation or how people perceive you define who you are.

Survive. Survive every hard hit, every set back, great is ahead. Never limit yourself!

Just do it!

Words that matter

Take a leap of faith. Stop putting things off. It is your time! Sign up for that school! Send out those job application! Try something new! Make that move. I know its easier to say later than tackling right away but procrastinating will get you no where. Your voice needs to be heard, you have a story to tell you audience is waiting. So get up and just do it!!

Friendship

Food from the table of her mind

For me, friendships are extremely important and I hold them very dear to my heart. So rest assured if I tell you that you are my friend, I mean it in every sense of the word and you are held in high regards in my heart. So you will understand when I say my circle of friends is small and my inner circle of friends is even smaller.

Your friends should want to see you win and level up, being the best version of yourself as much as possible. You need people in your circle who can motivate you on those days when you need some extra encouragement. They should cheer loudly for you especially on those days when you just want to throw in the towel.

Recently I express to one of my inner circle friends that I wanted to do something new. When she heard my idea she instantly became one of my biggest supporter. She said “I will promote you, I even have some (referring to the concept I had just shared) that I want you to try” . When I express one fear that I had she instantly destroyed that fear and said what you are bringing to the table is different. In your life you will need friends like this who will cheer so loudly for you that the very doubts or fears you had seem so obsolete.

Your Inner Circle Friends

The word inner already suggest the position of those friends hold. It speaks to a different level of closeness that they hold in your life. These are the persons that know you on a personal level that knows detailed information about you and in essences knows you extremely well. The reality is not everyone you call friend is at this level. Some are mere acquaintance, so stop giving unnecessary information to them and expecting certain behavior from these acquaintance. Know your circle and the people in it.

Know when to walk away

Some friendships can be toxic and you just need to leave. You don’t have to argue you can peaceful back away. Sweetie you cannot continue pouring into something that is not going anywhere. A friendship should not be one sided, it has to be two sided. When a friendship or relationship becomes a one sided thing then my dear just walk away. Always remember Choose people who choose you.
