Repeat After Me.

I don’t have a lot to say, today.

This morning, I woke up and I told myself that I won’t allow the things that have been bothering me, lately, to keep me down. I know that I am so close to achieving something big, and I am finally ready to tell myself that I am allowed to be happy about it.

I want to tell all of you today that it is okay to be happy. It is okay to allow yourselves a little bit of happiness. It is okay to allow yourselves bigger happiness if you’ve worked hard for it and if you’ve been waiting too long for something to happen. It doesn’t matter how close you are to the finish line– you are allowed to be happy, without having to justify to others why you think you deserve to celebrate a little.

Let this be a reminder that you do not have to explain yourselves to anyone, and fully within the right to celebrate your biggest and smallest wins. Life is too short to let our achievements go unacknowledged.

Now say this out loud: I am allowed to be happy. I am allowed to feel as though I deserve my happiness, because I do. 

And then say it again as many times as you need to remind yourselves about it. Xx
