The more you consciously DECIDE to feel excited about your healthier choices, the more your brain associates these healthy things with dopamine too. This is how people get addicted to working out and eating right. It starts with small, consistent changes, which we all know and hear about regularly but to me, the most important piece comes from the intentional choice of good feelings surrounding those healthy routines.

Be conscious of your purchases because it is too often, too simple for us to go full Ariana grande and “I want it I bought it” ourselves into the cumbersome nightmare of amazon boxes and useless shit that didn’t actually feel good when you got it, had to unload it, or when you finally decided to get rid of it six years later and realized the tags were still on it.

If you’re like me and you struggle to limit your spending in any capacity - next time you want to buy something new, ask yourself this: Can I afford this? And Do I need this? If the answer is yes to both -great. Buy it! No hesitation. If you say nah I don’t need it and it’s worth it to you to buy it anyway - great. Buy the shit. And if you can’t afford it - that’s a case by case basis. But at least you’ve asked yourself the shit you were supposed to ask first so your purchase in itself - became ...

Be kind. Be patient. And understand it’s not a personal attack on your character. It’s a comment on your behavior which can be changed for the better.

The better you get at communicating openly and vulnerably and clearly, the better everyone around you can get with understanding you where you are now - and the less confrontations you’ll be stuck with. You simply add more stress, more chance for confusion, and a higher potential for confrontation when you avoid discussing things openly and honestly. Instead of using coded language to communicate - say it once and say it right. Never shrink yourself to make others comfortable if it’s safe enough...

If you believe it’s all hopeless, you are correct. It is hopeless. If you believe there is hope for a better tomorrow - you are correct, there is hope for a better tomorrow.

This is why I find it so incredibly deep and powerful to be able to address the most optimistic aspects of any given situation, regardless of how ridiculous that optimism may seem in the moment.

Equity takes into account every person’s individual needs.
