Never, ever give up. Except when you need to give up some toxic behaviors, things or people to be happier, of course. I’ve rounded up my top 9 things that you should let go of this fall for a happier, healthier you.
9 Things to Give Up For a Happier You
1. Give up Your Need to Control.
Let the cards fall as they will and react accordingly. Stop trying to force the hand.
2. Give up Negative Self-Talk.
The instant a negative thought pops into your head, banish it. This takes some time and practice, but the less time you spend dwelling on the negative, the more time you have to build your best life.
3. Give up Being Judgmental.
Just because something is different, doesn’t mean it’s bad. It’s just different. Treat people and situations with an open heart, and you’ll be surprised how much joy it brings to your life.
4. Give up Saving Your Vacation Days.
Take the vacation. Go on an adventure with your loved ones. You’ve earned it.
5. Give up the Blame Game.
Stop pointing fingers and let things be.
6. Give up Complaining.
Think about your blessings and feel the love come back to you tenfold.
7. Give up Finding Yourself.
Hear me out: you are always evolving and will continue to change and grow into the woman you are made to be. You find new aspects of yourself every day. Treasure those daily discoveries.
8. Give up Following People on Social Media Who Make You Feel Inferior or Angry.
If you’re following an old friend just because you would feel bad unfollowing them, but they post about things you disagree with or things that anger you – unfollow them! Don’t let unnecessary negativity permeate your day.
9. Give up Your Fears.
The world is yours for the taking. What are you afraid of? Go conquer, queen!
