It’s definitely important to keep a balance in your life, but don’t beat yourself up if you just can’t do it now. Sometimes you get into a phase in which all you want to do is relax, and sometimes you get into a phase in which all you want to do is work. It’s not the end of the world. You can’t force yourself to mix things up if you just don’t feel like it. Cut yourself some slack and don’t try to be perfect. No one expects it of you, so why should you expect it of yourself?

You have a certain sparkly allure now, so you’ve got to flaunt it. Others love your self-confidence, laughter, and crazy ideas

Is your partner insisting that something is a compliment when it feels like the opposite? Ignoring the situation won’t make it go away or feel any better. Stand up for yourself. You deserve better treatment.

Small details can leave you depressed but that doesn’t mean you can or should avoid dealing with them. Just don’t forget to spend some of your day making plans and thinking about a brighter future waiting for you down the road.
