Set Me Free
“Sometimes what you’re most afraid of doing is the very thing that will set you free” – Robert Tew I️ find that quote to be quite cliché for obvious reasons, yet it is still one of the most true and intelligent things I️ have ever heard. This quote really connects to my thoughts in making this, and my thoughts on a couple other things.

An Inner Battle. Who Am I?
If you can conquer your mental being, you can conquer anything in the world. I’ve lived my life in this constant battle with myself and with the world, being ripped to shreds to create the perfect girl. Eventually, I met the right people, I experienced enough, and I found myself.

Personal Freedom
Despite what some people may think, personal freedom isn’t automatic. It’s something that must be achieved for oneself. This is done in different ways. For example, if someone does what they think is right, despite what everyone else tells them, that person has achieved personal freedom. Also, when someone speaks their mind about something that is difficult for them to talk about, that person has achieved personal freedom as well. Even when someone simply becomes more confident in themselves, they too achieve this freedom.

Why Am I Here?
Why am I here? That is the question. I honestly don't know. I don't know what life is. I've only been here for nearly 20 years and I still don't know the true meaning of why am I here. Ever since I was here, I've gone through many challenges. I don't know what life takes me nor I know what to do with my life. I have many things to go for, but nothing seems to work out for me.

Meaning of Happiness
Happiness. The feeling that most people are hopeful to actually "feel" and experience. The feeling that is so difficult to describe. The feeling that I work hard towards achieving in my life and one that I wish to experience more of. I seem to be searching for that feeling lately, that experience, those moments that I can just sit in and soak in and hope that they never disintegrate. Happiness, is it a feeling? Or is it an experience? Or is it a place? Is it a state of mind? Or is it just one more thing that people search for and rarely find? Or is it something that a person finds but can't hold on to it for a prolonged period of time?

The Anti-Cliché
Before I begin, I ask of your forgiveness The holidays are over and I’m feeling pessimistic. The stress of expectation and anticipation is over, but so is the spirit of hope and new beginnings. So I ask you to bear with me as I criticize some of your favorite chlichés, point out what I believe to be some harsh realities, and get altogether down on myself.

Stress Is Optional
If anyone had told me two years ago that "stress is optional," I would have rolled my eyes and then asked them what they're selling. But here's the truth of it—where you can't control your initial emotional response to stress, you can control the thoughts and decisions you make in response. When I first began practicing the techniques I will share here, it was very difficult to change the automatic responses I had wired my brain to make. However, I put the practice to the test every day and every time I remembered to. It wasn't long before I rewired my brain so that my automatic response to stress was to remain calm and think things through.
