Choose Your Life

Love Yourself

You can have it all

“Choose your life

from a place of joy

not fear

and never settle”

The beauty is

that we CAN choose

what kind of life that we want to live.

Let’s choose

from a position of joy

and never out of fear.

Never settle for what you don’t want

just because someone else wants control.

You deserve happiness and contentment!

When you choose joy,

you open up your full potential

and ‘create’ a life that is worth living.

Plus,

you are proving to yourself and to others

that you have control of your own life.

Choosing to live from a place of joy

is allowing ourselves to experience ‘real’ life.

And we are ‘allowing’ ourselves

to ‘follow our dreams’.

Fear must never dictate our lives

and we must never let it!

Life is too short to live always in fear,

so we need to be strong,

in control of our lives and determined

to live the happy and content life

that we deserve.

This is our lives

so never settle for anything

you do not want.

Strive to be the best version of yourself

— for yourself.

Live and love yourself!

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

    Choosing joy over fear is the boldest act of self-love, because when you refuse to settle, you claim the life that was always meant to be yours.
