Learn to detach, from people that are no longer serving you, from past experiences that have no direct bearing in your present, from your comfort zone that is keeping you stuck in the same complacent habits. Unwavering attachment brings with it stagnation, pain, resentment. Learn to let go, to start new chapters, to see life from a different lense with endless possibilities, to see the beauty and thrill in the new things, experiences, and people that are yet to come into your life.
I love my energy. I love being sweet, kind, light, gleamy, hair tucked behind my ear, pure, blushy, and soft spoken. But on the flip side I love being sexy, flirty, charismatic, magnetic, wild natural curls going every which way, outspoken, deep eye contact, and alluring
I’ve taught myself to never give anyone the satisfaction of getting a reaction out of me, no matter what the situation is. I’ve worked so hard to reach this level of inner peace. My growth, peace and sanity is one of my priorities. No one will ever have the privilege of getting me to react towards anything lower than my vibration.

Be highly selective. Don’t attend meetings when you have nothing to contribute, don’t read newsletters if you already know or if it doesn’t really matter to you. Stop moving an inch forward in a million different directions and start gaining momentum in getting one major thing done.
Pursue less but better in a disciplined way

On trade offs: don’t ask ‘what do I want to give up?’ ask ‘what do I want to go big on?’
Less, but better : if trying to start a journaling habit, start by always writing less than you want to. Usually, on the first day, you’ll write many pages, and then you’ll quickly start to dreading having to write so much. Until you’ve made journaling a habit, write very little.
Your strategy can’t be “pretty clear”. Anyone who wears glasses knows there is a difference between “pretty clear” and “really clear”.

Beware the sunk cost bias: continuing something we would otherwise move on from, simply because we have already invested time or money in it. It’s a vicious cycle

You mentioned that you don't get easily heartbroken and I was wondering how do you do it?!
Hey Habibti,
Everyone is different so don't stress about it. There is nothing wrong with heartbreak.
I get disgusted by men's actions a lot more than being sad over it. If a man decides to disrespect me, I am highly turned off. Depending on what the issue is - I can't find him attractive again. It's more "ew" than "boohoo" for me.
I have my own personal list of things I need to see from a man before I even think of allowing my emotions in. I might flirt and have a fun time with you but my feelings won't bother to develop beyond finding someone physically attractive if certain things aren't met.
I barely have time to pay attention to men who aren't attracted to me. I barely get crushes that consume me because I might find a man attractive but he will never take up space in my mind without it being reciprocated. I don't have the time or energy.
I don't believe rejection is the worst thing in the world. If someone doesn't see your value or isn't attracted to it, that doesn't mean it isn't there. I am not for everyone and not everyone is for me.
With All My Love,
Heart💚
I think the recent events in my life showed me that you owe it to yourself to move on, it will take time and energy, but you must eventually move on. Maybe nothing will truly be the same after that person/situation/ etc yet life is not meant to truly stay the same for eternity. People and situations will leave an imprint, a mark on you yet everything must regenerate and that's exactly the purpose of life. You owe it to yourself to give life a second, even a third, and fourth (etc) chance. I think I am ready again to open myself up to new connections after certain disappointments I had this year. But I owe it to myself to give life and love a new chance.
