So this past week, well starting Wednesday, I found myself sick once again or still. Honestly I don’t even know anymore, all I know is that I was weak, felt bad, and spent most of my days sleeping. When I get sick my anxiety tends to come out to play and it usually likes to bring it’s friend depression. I will sit there and throw myself a pity party about why am I sick again? Why can’t I just have one thing go my way? Blah, blah, blah. I’m not the funnest person to be around, but at the same time I’m realizing that this is a time to re-set my motivation for when I am healthy again to help prove to myself that I am stronger than I think. I keep a quote journal for when times get tough that I can read through and have little reminders that where I’m at is temporary and I can get through this. When I’m in a really bad place I’ll even have someone else read the quotes to me because I tend to not believe anything I tell myself and it has actually been really helpful. Since I’m still feeling under the weather I don’t have the energy to write a whole blog post so I thought I would share some of my favorite quotes with you all as a reminder that whatever you may be going through at this moment you will get through it.
“Your present circumstances don’t determine where you can go; they merely determine where you start.”
“I can muster up a little more hope and courage from deep inside me.”
“The struggle you’re in today is developing the strength you need for tomorrow.”
“You are NOT a mess, you are brave for trying.”
“Celebrate every accomplishment no matter how small.”
“Anxiety is one little tree in your forest. Step back and look at the whole forest instead.”
“You may have to fight a battle more than once.”
“Be gentle with yourself, you are doing the best you can. Don’t give up.”
If you have any quotes that you would like to share I would love to hear them! I am always looking to expand my quote journals.
