The first time you go out on a limb and really put yourself out there, it will be nerve wracking and scary, because you’re navigating uncharted waters. The second time, it will be not much, but a little, easier.

They are not the one. Your person is somewhere out there making their way to you. But it’s not this clown. Chill.

Maybe when you were in my position back in your youth someone was a total dick to you, and you just assumed that was what good managing looked like?

There has never been an easier time to chase your dreams. There are no gatekeepers shutting us out any more. Everything is yours for the taking if you work your arse off and want it badly enough.

Whatever you are searching for in a friend or a partner, you need to become that person first. Is it generosity? Is it kindness? Is it intelligence? Is it fearlessness? Whatever it is, work on those qualities within yourself.

You are trying to make better choices with the arrival of each new day. And that you hope that if not today, then someday, they are proud to call you their son or daughter. Because that is all any child wants to believe.

You saw a total different picture to what you’re seeing right now. And that saddens you. Where did you go wrong?

This is how I see it: I might get hit by a bus today; so if I find myself liking someone, they sure as hell are gonna know, because I’m gonna tell them.

I want you to want me for more than just my body, because we both know I won’t always look this way. I want you to listen, really listen when I speak. I want you to think of me; even in the tiniest of moments

You’re winning at life, because, what could possibly make any of us richer than giving and receiving love? In the end, love is all there will ever be.

You’ve lost your spark and you need to shake things up in order to get it back. Change won’t happen if you don’t make a change. What did you used to get super excited about as a kid? Skipping? Doodling? Making mini pizzas with questionable toppings? Re-visit the good times and bring them back! You’re never too old.
