Somebody Needs To Hear This

Have you ever read something or heard something and said to yourself, “I needed to hear that…” You got a much-needed moment of validation, or an answer to an issue you’re dealing with. Regardless of the reason for your “ah-ha” moment, what you heard or read gave you a sense of relief and clarity. It was something you needed to hear.

Here are 10 statements of encouragement. Please share because somebody needs to hear this….

 

Don’t Give Up on Your Dream

If people don’t believe in your dream, dream anyway. Do you have a business idea? Bring it to fruition. Don’t let anyone else’s lack of inspiration or motivation discourage you from accomplishing your personal goals. You can make your dream a reality. So, dream BIG and MAKE IT HAPPEN!

 

They Need You

“They” are those people who notice you aren’t your best. “They” are the people who depend on you the most. Sometimes your “they” are the reason you aren’t your best. When it comes to expressing their appreciation for you, they fall short. Regardless of this fact, they love and want you to be okay. So, take care of yourself because THEY NEED YOU.

 

You Are Strong

This statement not only describes you physically, but mentally also. You are a fighter. Whatever challenge you are facing, YOU GOT THIS. You have what it takes to get through it. You are strong.  Keep your head up and remember your strength.

 

You Are Loved

Sometimes, there aren’t people in your life who tell you they love you. That’s okay if you don’t hear it. Love is an action that can be found in the smiles of the people closest to you. Love shows up during family time. Love is embedded in those goodnight hugs and kisses. Love is present in those full tummies after dinner. Love is evident from those “just saying hello”, “haven’t heard from you”, or those “just checking on you” phone calls or text messages. Just because you don’t hear the word “love”, doesn’t mean it is absent. It’s there. You are loved.

 

You Aren’t Alone

The world can seem like a lonely place. I can confidently assure you that these feelings you are experiencing are ones that bond many people together. You don’t know each other, but you understand one another.  Whatever you are going through, they get it. Find those people who understand you, who can support you, and make a connection. Make a conscious choice to NOT be by yourself because you aren’t alone.

 

you need a Break

You work hard. Carve out some time to focus on yourself. I know you are busy, but you deserve a break, so take one. There will never be a good time to slow down; so just pick a day and take it easy. Unplug and unwind.

 

You Are Selfless

You do a lot. You cater to everyone’s needs at work and at home. Selfishness is not a word that describes you. Don’t ever let anyone make you feel guilty for putting your wants and needs first, for once.

 

You Deserve Good Things

Don’t allow yourself to be treated poorly by anyone. Don’t settle for just anything. Have standards and set boundaries. Protect your peace. You are always concerned about the needs and the feelings of others. Because you are who you are, you deserve to have relationships or friendships of superior quality.

 

You Are You And You Are Enough

I bet you’ve never met a perfect person. You’ve never met a perfect person walking this earth because such a person DOES  NOT  EXIST. You are you. No one else is you and no one else can be you. Love yourself and never let anyone project their shortcomings onto you. You are perfectly imperfect, and YOU  ARE  ENOUGH.

 

Thank You for Everything You Do

You don’t do all that you do to get a “thank you”. You do it because of who you are. You do it because of your love and commitment to the people who are important to you. Those people may sometimes unconsciously take you for granted. On behalf of them, I say THANK YOU. Thank you for your dreams. Thank you for being someone they depend on. Thank you for being strong and for showing love through your actions. Thank you for connecting with others and thank you for your acts of selflessness. Thank you for being YOU.

Now, let all of that sink in.

Somebody needs to hear this.

And that somebody…….

Is YOU
