1make peace with your past so it won’t disturb your future

What others think of you is none of your business

The only one in charge of your happiness is you

Don’t compare yourself to others as comparison is the thief of joy

Time Heals so give it time

Stop thinking too much it’s okay not to know all the answers

Smile at you do not own all the problems in the world
