Be so comfortable making mistakes that instead of seeing failure as a dead-end scenario, you only see it as a redirection to even more growth and success.
I'm kinder to myself. When I give myself constructive criticism, I do it lovingly...slowly. I lovingly tell myself that I am capable of anything because it's true and I don't lie. I always remind myself that I am enough. I give myself the space to take up space!
Removing toxic habits and refocusing your energy can be so so powerful. We are so used to indulging in unhealthy habits that drain our energy that we forget what it's like to be in tune with our creativity & inspiration. No wonder you don't feel motivated when your entire energy is wasted on doomscrolling or consuming media that is concerned with drama, comparison, and insecurities. Stop, redirect, and focus. Your energy and time is one of the most valuable things at your disposal.
