While life has it up and down, whatever life throws at you – I want you to know one thing: you’re still pretty damn awesome—still number 1 in the world. So put the drink down, dry your tears and get out into the world. Want to know why you’re awesome? Well, let me tell you by telling 4 reasons why you are awesome.
There is no one else quite like you. Yes, you heard right. It pretty an incredible thing to think about when you do think about it. I mean, unless you meet your doppelganger, there is only one of you in this entire world. No one else has your unique personality or perhaps attribute that makes you – you. Embrace yourself and go out in the world with the knowledge there is only one you.
Born with talent.
When I was younger, I was always told that everyone is born with talent – no matter how big or small that might be. I took that advice to heart, and it something that has carried me right into adulthood. So, whether you good at carpentry or even have the ability to makes someone smile, that is still a talent, and you should be pretty damn proud about it.
You can smile through the bad time.
“Smile though your heart is aching
Smile even though it’s breaking
When there are clouds in the sky, you’ll get by
If you smile through your fear and sorrow
Smile and maybe tomorrow
You’ll see the sun come shining through
For you.”
– Song by Natalie Cole though Charlie Chaplin was the original composer.
When you find times are tough, you can still smile and face the world with a brave face.
You have more courage than you think.
When the world feels darker, and all you want to do is collapse into a bottomless abyss, you still find that tiny bit of courage to face the world, and you still hold your head up high. Remember in The Wizard of Oz, the lion wanted to have courage from the great Oz but soon discovered it was within him the whole time; Well, the same principle still applies to you.
The ability to laugh.
No matter what going on with your life, you can still laugh. And if you’re like me, then you probably collapse when laughing too hard or dissolve into a giggle fits that is hard to get out of. They say laugher released endorphins, making you feel good about yourself. Whatever situation you find yourself in – you can still laugh about it.
Now, do you believe me that you’re awesome? So give yourself a high five and keep being you.
