6 Things We Should Say Aloud More

There are a few things that we genuinely do not say enough. Sometimes they can be to ourselves, and sometimes they can be to others. Most importantly though, we need to make sure that we do what makes us happy, put ourselves first, and just be unapologetically ourselves. So what are the kinds of things we should say aloud more?

01. You’re doing an amazing job

I definitely do not say this enough to myself, mainly because I have 0 belief in myself or what I can do. Even on your worst days, reminding yourself that you’re doing an amazing job is so important. It can be something so simple like getting out of bed and having a shower. Whatever it is, you’re doing it well, and don’t sell yourself short.

02. It is okay to struggle

Being honest when you’re struggling is hard, I’m not going to lie, but voicing how your feeling is so important. When you’re struggling sharing your thoughts, feelings and what is causing you to struggle can actually help you. But you have to find someone that you’re comfortable doing that with, whether it is your family, a friend or a counsellor. Whoever that is, as long as you’re comfortable with them, that is all that matters. Struggling is not a sign of weakness, and that is important to remember.

03. You are not alone

I need to remind myself of it more often. When my mental health is really bad, it can make me feel incredibly isolated, and it can be a dark space. It can make me feel like there is no way out, but even though we have been apart for so long due to the pandemic, those loved ones are right there. Whether it is by phone, text, email, those loved ones are right there.

04. Where there are problems, there are solutions

Problems can arise from even the most thought out plans. No matter what happens, you will be able to succeed. Sometimes we need to readjust our plans, have a way of coping with problems. Take a deep breath in, take a moment to adjust, and move forward. You can do this, and never let anyone tell you, that you can’t.

05. It’s okay to lose friends

I’ve got to be honest over the years I’ve lost a lot of friends and it has been painful. Friendships have come and gone, but those friendships happened for a reason. Sometimes the friendships that we have are meant to teach us something, we may want to learn something, or understand how to cope better with those bad days.

06. It’s okay to take life slowly

I feel like we are  all in a massive rush to get through life’s milestones, and let’s be honest, we really don’t need to. Life is a marathon, not a sprint, and we all go at our own pace. We do not need to have achieved something by a certain age, and whether it is to have children, have bought a house, no matter what it is, there is no age you need to have achieved this by.
