The school year is finally winding down, but there are a few things that need to be done before leaving for summer break. Throughout my first year here at Penn State, I learned a lot about college and myself. Although my experience has been lovely, there is always room for improvement. This blog post is all about my personal guide to moving on to bigger & better!
1. Have a solid support group
I believe this is the most important part of moving on. There are just some things that aren't meant to be done alone, and this happens to be one of them. Surround yourself with true friends who will support you no matter what. Sometimes, talking it out with someone who cares is the best way to mend a wounded soul.
2. Remember to cherish what you have
Whether you're having a beautiful day or a lousy one, you should always be grateful for what you have. Every morning, you should start fresh and give yourself the opportunity to really live. Let go of that negative energy to make room for a grateful heart.
3. Make yourself a priority
Although it is important to consider other people, you also need to do what's best for you. If you seek approval from everyone, you will never be able to move on. You should never settle for anything less than happiness. Only you can truly make you happy.
4. Be kind to the people around you
No matter how angry you may be, you should never take it out on the people who care about you. They are there to help you, and the least you can do is appreciate what they have done. Spreading kindness is a delightful way to not only lift somebody else's spirits, but yours as well!
5. Don't let the past define you
Everyone makes mistakes, that's what makes us human. You should never hold yourself to a standard of perfection. There are always things that you regret, but there's nothing you can do about it now. What happened in the past already happened. The only way to move on is to learn from your mistakes. Accept that you're not perfect, and let it go.
6. Keep a positive outlook
Even though nothing may seem to be going right, you have to keep on keeping on. You didn't come this far, to only come this far. Moving on is a journey that molds your character, and builds strength. If you allow yourself to grow and be happy, then the rest will come naturally.
7. Be proud of yourself
No matter what people say or do to you, they can never take away your self worth. You need to realize you are amazing and there is nothing that can change that. Never doubt yourself, even if other people seem to be doubting you. You know who you are and what you want, and at the end of the day, that's really all that matters.
Moving on doesn't mean you forget about things. It means you have to accept what happened and keep on living. Remember: this isn't a process that happens overnight. So, keep on fighting my friend! I'm rooting for you!
I really hope you found this post in some way helpful. Feel free to leave any questions or comments. And if you want, leave any advice you think is worth sharing! Fill your life with nice shoes, warm smiles, & plenty of dreams With Love, Maria
