Oldiefan and stediaco via Canva When you’re stuck in a rut, it’s easy to feel down about life. Everyone knows what it’s like to go through a rough patch.
When you’re going through something difficult, it’s easy to get discouraged. It’s easy to fall into the belief that things won’t get better, or that you are weak for not breezing through everything.
Things might not always go according to plan, and some obstacles may seem impossible to overcome, but that does not mean you're weak.
If you have the perseverance to push through during difficult times, then that means you are strong. Being a strong person doesn’t mean that you have your life together 24/7, because let’s be real, no one has their life together all the time.
It’s okay to feel confused and lost. You’re allowed to mess up and struggle with things, but what makes you strong is your determination to get through the most difficult of obstacles.
We know you got this, but if you need some inspiration, here are some 'you got this!' quotes to remind you of your resilience.
