2. Friends can be just as so called as that love. It’s not your fault nor should you close out every other friend “just in case”. Hold tight to the ones that count.
3. It’s easy to put things off and hard to get things done. Make a list the prioritize. Get the first three done.

5. Finding courage is one of the hardest things, but if you want to truly live, you must be brave.
6. Even in your darkest hour there is small flickers of light. Thrive in those.
7. Too often you may feel overwhelmed. If you can take an afternoon to relax. If you can’t spend three minutes, then refer to number 3.
8. Try and get enough sleep even if you have to say no to other things.
