"You should have done it by
yourself". I keep telling myself that sentence every single day. I know I need to learn how to trust people but I keep saying I would have done it better.
Wake up, better is not always the answer.

Plenty of room
And now they are two. Two boxes filled with notes, letters, schedules, sketches, but mainly dreams. The rest is in a garbage bag. I may not have a room for every piece of paper but I have plenty of room inside my head. And that is the only thing I need.

"If only" is not going to help
Maybe it's good to be here now, to not have everything I need to make things easier. Maybe this is how great ideas are born. "If only" is not going to help you anyway, but a different mindset will.

Everything
My online territory. My brand. My dreams. We are building it and I just can't believe it. I am excited, I am happy and I am thankful I got this far. Pushing towards my dreams alongside the endless fear. I hope I will always remember those days I had nothing but felt like I have everything.

Built-in behavior
I will be o.k. I know I will. No matter how anxious I am when I wake up in the morning, no matter how many mistakes I will make, I already know I always get back up. It's already a built-in behavior. Don’t worry too much, just keep working.

"Buying" part
She left me a message. Complementing my work. Asking "when it will be on the market"? and I choked up. I was so glad she loved it but the "buying" part made me anxious. Your ideas are not enough. The next step is not less important. And now is the perfect time to start.

Don’t ignore it, use it.
I am not going to let it control me. The feeling of being scared. The feeling who makes you anxious. I am going to welcome it. Acknowledge it and move forward. Every step forward will have that feeling anyway-Don’t ignore it, use it.

Happiness
The numbers are not supposed to make you happy. Happiness comes within yourself. Did you treat yourself with kindness today? Did you talk to yourself with ease? Did you surround yourself with people who bring you joy and make you laugh? Did you make another step forward? That is what happiness is all about.

Your superpower
Your superpower is your mood. It's the core of your well-being. A good mood brings good energy, optimistic thoughts, and great ideas. On the flip side, there is another option. An option that is up to you. Remember, either way, it's your call.

It's a lot
They are out there. Everywhere. Good people. Today they were two. One came back to his car, making sure I have enough space and the other made sure I will not hit the cars next to me. It's small, it's a minute or two but it's a lot. It's strangers helping strangers. It's doing something for someone else without getting anything in return.

Same notes, different self
Same notes, different self. I found a bunch of them, notes I wrote a couple of years ago. They have the same structure, same sketch characteristics, same accurate description. And I have them everywhere. They symbolize my progress, my determination, my strength- even if sometimes I feel lost.

You will figure it out
It may seem like a lot to handle, too many steps ahead, too many decisions to make but one day, they will all be behind me and other things will be the "problem" that needs to be solved. Breath. You will figure it out.

Human connection
Human connection. That is what it is. That is the real deal. People. Your whole day can change because someone puts a smile on your face. A kind word, a nice gesture, a compliment. A second. That can change everything.

Be patient
Ideas put a smile on my face. Ideas give me hope and get me excited. When you're having a hard day, think about a day like today, when you couldn’t be more pleased with what your hand was sketching. A day like today is always around the corner. Be patient. You have it all inside your head.

Work harder
It's always the same answer. Work harder. There is no other answer. To prevent those tears, the disappointments, the things you can't have. Work harder and the rest will follow. You already know how it works.

The bee inside you head
It's like when you are too cold or there is a bee flying in the room. Without it, things could have been perfect. But they are not. It makes you less focused and anxious. It's life. One day you feel like crying for no reason and the next you smile.

Just the way we imagined
I saw it coming. I knew one day it will happen and I will be prepared. Prepared with the right sentence and the right smile. Today was the day and I wasn't thinking about how did I do, I thought about it as a sign, about things we see before they are happening. Just the way we imagined.

You are not stuck
Sometimes it feels like I am stuck. Stuck with not many options to choose from. It may take a while until I'll start feeling different but until then, keep going. As long as you are creating, you are not stuck.

It doesn’t matter.
It doesn’t matter. It doesn’t matter if it looks like your life has been torn apart. If people around you break you to pieces with their words. What matters the most- is yours. Only yours. Your brain, your thoughts, your ideas, your mindset has nothing to do with other people, but you.

Are you happy?
Are you happy? Is it a "Yes" or "No" question? Is it a question you ask yourself occasionally or do you already know the answer? It has nothing to do with your story but has a lot to do with your mindset.

Their story
If they come to you with their story. With their happy news. You should smile. You should feel proud. Sharing their happiness
with you means you did well. It means you made them feel good once before and now they trust you.

It hits you
It hits you, with no warning. You read something, you have a flashback, you feel it. All of a sudden you are locked. Locked on that thought, who brought you those feelings who made you sad. No matter what the story is, we all have it. The question is what are you going to do about it.

Take that leap
You are talented? Good for you. Do you have ideas? Perfect! Is it something you know people are going to buy? Amazing! But the question is are you brave enough to take that leap? Putting the money in inventory. Knowing people want to buy and you don’t have anything to sell yet- is a mistake. Take that leap already. You will be fine.

You can switch it
You can switch it. In a second. You can change it from "not in the mood" to "in the mood". From "not feeling well" to "I will do what I can". Choosing the latter will definitely make you feel better.

Inside my head
Sometimes I feel like I need the same table to do the work written on my list. I need the loud music on my morning drive to get calm before I get to work and use the same machine in order to do "good" work. But I don’t. No matter where I am, no matter what facilities are available to me- I have it all inside my head. And that is the only thing that matters.
