#Quoteivation: “Put yourself out there with no apologies.”

Don’t be afraid to show your talent, your skills, your personality. And don’t apologize for them. Don’t mind the reactions of other people. What matters is you’re being yourself without harming others.

#Quoteivation: Always be calm

When things are going downhill, always be calm. You'll be better for it.

Comfy Shoes

I went out today intending to buy some new comfy shoes. I needed something closed with soft soles since I walk a lot between classes and wearing open-toed sandals leaves me with grimy feet at the end of the day.

Problem is, I have a hard time finding closed shoes because of my tendency to have ingrown toenails. The only closed shoes that I have right now are boots that have roomy toes but hard soles.

#Quoteivation: Trust that what you’re doing will mean something.

There are times when you choose something to do, maybe a college course or a job, and at first it seems like it was a good choice, a wise choice. But then people tell you you made a mistake in choosing what you chose. Day in and day out, they’ll tell you what you’re doing is a waste of time.

#Quoteivation: “Let yourself like what you like.”

Don’t be ashamed of what you like, whether it’s clothing choices or sexual preferences. Don’t invalidate yourself by making it seem like your choices are less important than others’.
You matter. Therefore your preferences are not things to be dismissed.
And while it’s also not okay to tout your preferences and throw them in people’s faces to seem unashamed, it’s also not okay to dismiss or demean them in front of others.
You like what you like. As long as other people are not being hurt, no one can tell you to stop liking what you like.

The Importance of a Strong Internal Support Group

You know those times when you need guidance, when you need support, and you feel like there's no one around you to lean on? We all have moments of weakness. Most times we are strong, but there are times when that strength fails. Those are the times when we need a support group, but it's not everytime we have one. Then we feel alone.

#Quoteivation: How to Get Over Frustration

It's the start of my week again and I'm getting by (more than getting by, actually). The past weekend wasn't as hectic as the one that came before it but

Quote-ivation: You Have YOU

When everyone else is gone, you have YOU.

I think this is

On the Color Pink and Being Different: Be You (Quote-ivation)

I know it has been said a lot. Be yourself, be who you really are, etc. But it's true. In life, there would be times when being you might not be the best idea, but

On Pride, Excellence, and Enduring Hardships: Endure. Fight Back. Never Yield. (Quote-ivation)

Whenever I'm in a tight spot, I've noticed that my quote-ivations seem to involve fighting something (see here and here). What am I fighting against? A lot of things. Pressure.

On College, Independence, and Self-pride: Excellence is the Norm (Quote-ivation)

People would tell you that college is very different from high school. It is. It's not just the people, the class schedules, or the lack of parental supervision. It's the standard.

Quote-ivation: Discipline is Key

I'm on a procrastination-fight roll. If you've noticed, my past posts have been about finishing a task, keeping yourself motivated, and inspiring inspiration. Behind all these is discipline.

On Inspiration: Force It (Quote-ivation)

There are times when you have to take it easy and pace yourself, and there are times when you have to force yourself to work because you're not sick, you're just lazy.

#Quoteivation: Criticism and Compliments

Today was a very good day for me - I'm on cloud 9. 

It didn't start off well at first; I only had three hours of sleep and that always makes me feel sick and cranky. But I pushed on. And it was fantastic.

Quote-ivation: Push!

I'm still not over how stressful last week was. I had a lot of quote-ivations running through my head just to get me through each day (see them here and here). Today's quote-ivation would probably still be running through my head for the coming week (it's running through my head now in light of everything I have to do). Push!

Quote-ivation: Keep Going. Just Keep Going.

Another thing that kept me sane last week was the saying below. People say it's hardest to start but I think it's just as hard to continue.

Quote-ivation and Weekly Wrap-up: I Will Live Through This

The past week was hectic, to say the least. It went by so fast because everyday had some task I had to finish on a deadline.
