Life is difficult, challenging, and even frustrating at times. Days can feel like weeks or pass so quickly that we may forget what we have had for breakfast. We forget to take time for ourselves; we can start to lose sight of our dreams, hopes, and futures. We stop smiling and begin lacking any fun in our lives and wonder what our purpose is. We become self-critical, depressed, anxious, and even hopeless, and our lives can change to where we feel better, vibrant, and energized for a new day.
