being a protagonist in life means accepting that you'll go through great hardship and suffering, not just blessings and joy. no main character goes through life unscathed, there's no development without conflict. pain and sadness are another part of life we must learn to romanticize and find beauty in ♡

rise & shine! ❀⋆.ೃ࿔*:･

take a deep breath. relax your jaw, your shoulders, your wrists, your neck. point your feet forward, then back, stretch your calves. take another deep breath. if you're reading this, you're fine, you're safe, you're on the right direction.

I'll give you a vision. you wake up early, no alarm clock, just your natural instinct. the love of your life, your best friend and lover, is sleeping soundly next to you, and as you leave the bed, they stretch comfortably to take up your warm space. the sun is just about to rise, the weather is cool. you wash your face and it feels smooth and velvety, your eyes are bright, your hair is glossy. you turn the heat on your hot beverage of choice, open up the windows and put on a fluffy sweater. your pet twirls around your legs, excited to see you. you drink a tall glass of water as the sun starts to paint the sky purple. you close your eyes and thank whoever it is you think has brought you to another daylight. then you stretch your limbs, crack your joints, and take the hot mug in your hands. you stand in the kitchen for a moment, taking in the scent, the warmth, the blessing of having another shot, another day of opportunity. the sun comes up and bathes the sky, your home and your kitchen in soft golden light.

we got another chance at life today! let's enjoy it ♡

BEING MAGNETIC THROUGH SOFTNESS

BEING OPTIMISTIC, regardless of the circumstances. People love positivity and will gravitate to people who make them feel good regardless of their circumstances.

SMILE. Even if you’re just walking around, having a nice friendly smile appeals to people and deems you approachable.

HELP WHENEVER YOU CAN, hold the door for someone, or lift a small burden for them. However, if you’re helping someone and it is out of your capabilities, it’s people-pleasing.

BE PRESENT, don’t dwell on the past or worry about the future. Just focus on what you’re doing, and with who at that moment.

BE AN ACTIVE LISTENER, engage in conversations with people and genuinely take in the information they tell you + make an effort to remember these facts about them.

AVOID JUDGING AND GOSSIPING, no matter how nice you are, as soon as you display these traits, you create a distance between your friends/family. While honesty is valued, if people don’t feel like they can be their authentic selves around you, they’ll close themselves up.

GIVE COMPLIMENTS OFTEN. Only if you mean it. It doesn’t have to be someone who you’re close to, but even just passers-by.

BE VULNERABLE. People won’t open up to people who are closed up. Share your deepest fears, challenges and emotions to create a deeper connection and trust.

PRACTICE BEING HUMBLE, while it is okay to celebrate our successes, we must be mindful of the manner we do so. Acknowledge other’s efforts and be willing to learn from others.

REPLACE SORRY WITH THANK YOU. If you’re a serial say-sorry person, replace them with thank you. E.g. sorry I’m late -> thank you for patiently waiting.

BE OPEN-MINDED, surround yourself with a diverse environment, and be willing to learn from other’s perspectives.

TAKE ACCOUNTABILITY. Apologise when necessary and own up to your own mistakes, but be sure to not repeat them.
