Do things that scare you. Go after the things you truly want. Mess up a few times. Learn from the things you’ve done wrong. Chase that dream that you’ve always had. Don’t be afraid to be wrong.

When you’re with the wrong person, they might bring you down. They might make you question whether you have what it takes to succeed. They might encourage you to give up on your dreams. They might warn you to play it safe. They might stifle you.

I promise you, it’s all in taking that first step to do the thing that scares you the most.

I’m slowly learning that it’s time to just be the person who loves more and cares deeply and tries harder.

We’ve got to let go of what we’ve planned in order to gain something better.
