Self help, because you are your greatest asset.
Affirmations
We underestimate ourselves. We live in a society that conditions us to believe in something greater than ourselves. Sometimes it has an effect to believe in something bigger than us. It can give us hope. Sometimes we can feel so clouded with everything around us it can send a ripple through our minds that can make us feel defeated. It can be hard to discern the truth.

Motivation vs. Self-Discipline: Which Is the Key to Habit Formation?
The only thing you have to do is install it and follow the instructions. Or at least that’s how I thought it worked. Surprisingly, the first habit that the app proposed to create was… drinking a glass of water every morning. That seemed easy enough. To motivate me, the app was giving random facts about how the human body needs water to function. (By the way, do you know that it’s possible to lose weight while sleeping?)

17 Self Discovery Journal Prompts
Honestly, if I kept every journal I've ever filled, it would probably be enough to fill a decent-sized closet. I've always kept one, I feel incomplete without something to write in. I want you to do me a favor, whether you decide to do this in a journal, on your phone, or on a loose leaf piece of paper, whether you do these daily, or all in one shot, PLEASE keep it, and look at it AT LEAST once a month. In that twelfth month do another round of these questions, and compare. Did any answers change? For better or worse?

Guided Journaling
We've all heard about the benefits of journaling, but all too often we flip open a blank book and stare at it not knowing what to say. Sometimes writing about our day doesn't feel right, or we don't know what thoughts to articulate. A guided journal helps you to gain clarity and focus.

How to Love Yourself Again
At some point in life we all experience a sense of confusion as to who we are or what our life even means. It is easy to get lost in our careers, studies, family life, etc. It is important to still find time for yourself. Schools should really stress the importance of self-care. As we get older sometimes our priorities get out of order. It is important to evaluate your life every so often, so that you can make sure you are happy and peaceful. Everything (growth-wise) stems from our inner happiness/mental state. So if we are not taking care of ourselves, most likely our work and everything else will be messy too.

Not in a Million Years
If you’d have told me when I was struggling to raise two kids through an on again off again marriage and a limited career path because my education stopped with my high school diploma that the hardest part of my life would be after those years were behind me, I’d have said you were crazy. Yet here I am. I worked hard and advanced in a tough industry and raised my kids and supported them myself until they were grown. I was proud of myself and had worked my way into a great job making great money and benefits and thought I was set for life... It didn’t happen that way (which is another story) and here I am...
