• When Neil Armstrong walked on the moon, he was completely out of his element.
.
He had never done it before, therefore he was out of his comfort zone.
.
But that didn't stop him from getting on that rocket and planting an American flag on the moon.
.
He went ahead despite the fears and discomfort.
.
And that's exactly how we should live our lives.
.
We need to stop pushing our dreams aside because they're out of our comfort zones and start diving headfirst into the fire.
.
That one step that Neil Armstrong took completely changed his life. Imagine what a step towards your dreams can do for you.
.
So step outside of your comfort zone. Do something that scares you. Follow your dreams. You never know where the path will take you, but what you do know is that you're getting somewhere. •

• An important lesson that I’ve learned this year is that there’s no better time than the present.
.
For years I played the waiting game with my dreams. Neglecting to follow them. I had this belief that I had to wait until I graduated from college to be able to follow them.
.
But I was wrong.
.
I've learned that theres never going to be a right moment. Theres never going to be a "perfect age" to follow my dreams.
.
I can be 10 or 20 or 50.
.
I've learned that if I really want something, I have to take that first step. No matter how scared.
.
I just have to start.
.
What important lesson have you learned recently? • .

• I think we can all agree that on a day to day basis, we partake in some of the most unhealthy habits ever.
.
And we may or may not realize just how toxic they actually are.
.
Which is why I comprised a list of 5 unhealthy habits you need to cut out of your life.
.
🌺 Being afraid to say no: something I think we all struggle with is saying the word "no". There have been so many instances where I have said yes to things simply out of guilt or to try and fit in. But that is so unhealthy!!
.
🌺 Not speaking up: growing up I was extremely shy. So shy that I would just let everyone walk all over me and manipulate me because I was so scared to use my voice. But now, I'm not afraid to speak my mind. And you shouldn't be either. Be brave and speak up.
.
🌺 Apologizing for who you are: there is nothing more beautiful than being unapologetically you. You have no reason to apologize for what makes you unique and special. So quit trying to please and cater to others and move to the rhythm of your own drum. And if they don't like it?? That's not your problem.
.
🌺 Pretending you are okay: listen, we all have our good and bad moments in life. But pretending that you are 100% all of the time can be exhausting. It's okay to take time for yourself to get better. You don't need to force yourself into happiness. Have your moment and move on. Pretending is just going to make it worse.
.
🌺 Indulging in self-doubt: your biggest obstacle in life will always be your mind. Whatever you feed it is what it will produce. So stop allowing yourself to think negatively. You are beautiful and extremely capable. Never forget that.
.
Love yourself and take care of yourself today and every day. •

• Yesterday I spoke to you guys about embracing all of your imperfections because they make you who you are.
.
And I know that for a lot of people recognizing these things might be a little hard.
.
Sometimes we don't realize the true meaning behind our words towards ourselves.
.
We don't realize the damage that these words do to our confidence, trust, and self-love.
.
Which is why we have no clue what exactly we're embracing.
.
A good way to figuring it out is by looking at yourself in the mirror and asking...
.
"What do I judge myself for?"
.
Do you judge your body?
.
Your face?
.
Your hair?
.
Your physical features?
.
Take note of all the things you judge yourself for. And once you do that try to shift it into something positive.
.
For example, I judge myself a lot for my height. But, my height is also adorable.
.
So instead of harping on the fact that I can barely reach anything, I create acceptance in my life by reminding myself that being 5 FT is fun and adorable.
.
I may take longer to reach something on the top shelf, but there's an adventure along the way.
.
So ask yourself this...
.
.
"How can I create more acceptance in my life?" •

• Self-sabotage. Self-doubt. Flaws. Imperfections. All things that keep us up at night & prevent us from fully loving ourselves.
.
I cannot tell you how many times a day I have wasted thinking about my flaws or the things I think I’m doing wrong.
.
So much time hating the little things instead of embracing them for making me who I am today.
.
The truth of the matter is that no matter how perfect you think someone may be, they have their little quirks that drive them mad as well.
.
But, we can’t continue to waste valuable time worrying about things we feel are ugly or bad.
.
Today I want you to embrace these things.
.
I want you to think of all that you are instead of all that you are not.
.
Because although you might hate it now, there’s a chance that you will learn to love it.
.
So I dare you to embrace all the little things that make you tick.
.
& remember, you are perfectly imperfect. •

• Without a doubt, this has been an incredibly life changing year.
.
Throughout the course of the year I've learned many lessons and evolved beyond understanding.
.
Which is how this question came about.
.
.
.
If I could give any advice to my younger self, what would I say?
.
Well younger me...
.
First and foremost I want you to know that everything in life is possible. You have all these big dreams that you keep pushing aside because they either seem impossible or you just don't have the money for it. STOP WORRYING ABOUT THAT. Just follow your dreams no matter how crazy or broke you are.
.
Secondly, I want you to know that it's okay to have your moments. You don't need to bottle it all in or convince yourself that you're insane. Let all your emotions out. You can journal, meditate, exercise. Anything. But just find a way to express it.
.
Lastly you should know that everything happens for a reason. Every up and down, left and right, is going to lead you somewhere. So stop overthinking. You will be okay. You're growing. You're evolving. And one day, you're going to be beyond proud of it.
.
Love, your future self.
.
.
What advice would you give your younger self? •

• A person's personality is my favorite thing about them.
.
It's unique to everyone and can teach you a lot about a person.
.
But, like everything in life, there's pros and cons.
.
Keeping in tune with our August challenge, I want to ask you guys a question...
.
What is your favorite personality trait that you have?
.
For me, I love how ambitious I am.
.
As soon as I set out to do something, I'm all in.
.
I love this because it means that I'm always full of ideas, willing to learn, and constantly growing.
.
What's yours? •

• What is confidence?
.
Is it a way of life?
.
A feeling?
.
Can it be embraced?
.
I feel like confidence is all of this. It's a feeling of self-assurance. A way of life. And embracing every aspect of your life.
.
But when exactly do we feel this confidence?
.
Do we feel it every moment of the day?
.
Just for a little?
.
Never?
.
Just like success, confidence is different for everyone.
.
I usually feel most confident when I'm hanging around people who inspire me and doing what I love.
.
When do you feel most confident? •

• Success can mean many things.
.
It can mean happiness, growth, strength.
.
For one person it can mean being super-rich and having the fanciest cars.
.
For others, it can mean finding true happiness and peace.
.
For me? I see success in everything. I feel successful when I wake up. When I accomplish a task (no matter how simple or small). When I relax.
.
Success to me is feeling fulfilled with what I do and how I do.
.
Having a sense of accomplishment and growth.
.
Success is self-improvement, self-love, self-care, self-trust.
.
Success is simply... success.
.
But everyone's version of success is different. So celebrate yours. Celebrate theirs. And continue to work hard for what you want to accomplish.
.
How do you define success? •
