"Let today mark a new beginning for you. Give yourself permission to say NO without feeling guilty, mean, or selfish. Anybody who gets upset and/or expects you to say YES all of the time clearly doesn't have your best interest at heart. Always remember: You have a right to say NO without having to explain yourself. Be at peace with your decisions."

"We should have the right to have someone leave when we want, to only allow those in who we want in. But the truth is, people can force their way into your life whenever they choose. If they want to remind you forevermore that they exist, they will. They can reappear in a card or call or a 'chance' meeting, they can remember your birthday or the day you met with some innocuous small note. No matter how little they matter in your new life, they can insist on being seen and recognized and remembered."

"There's not a single good thing about fear. Fear is a habitual liar and a destroyer of a purpose - filled life. Don't entertain fear. You've got to protect your dreams, goals, and the desires of your heart. Be brave in all things!"
"Never stop pushing for what you want! If something is truly important to you, stay diligent and find a way. Depending on whom you ask, the answer may be different. Never settle for the first answer! Do your own research, ask different people, go above other people's head if you have to. Sometimes it's necessary to push the envelope. Some people will purposely give you the wrong answer to try to stop you and/or hold you back. This, unfortunately, is a reality. Some people's intentions are all wrong. Be mindful that not everyone will have your best interest at heart."
"Dare to be bold and brave, my BEAUTIFUL QUEENS. Dare to believe that you can. Dare to make your dreams a reality. Dare to get out of your comfort zone and soar! Dare to live your life limitlessly. Dare to be yourself and be comfortable in your own skin. DARE."
"Don't destroy yourself over somebody else's foolishness. I know they betrayed you. I know they lied on you. I know they talked behind your back and told all of your business. I know they hurt you to the core. I know they turned their back on you. I know they cheated on you. I know they mislead you. I know, I KNOW. In spite of it all, you have to know that you are worth more than what they dished out to you. You will survive! You will make it through! Remember who YOU are and know YOUR self - worth!"
"Replace the word can't with can. Know that you can, believe that you can, and know with ALL of your heart that you will. You will succeed in spite of any obstacles that may try to hinder you! There's so much power in having a positive attitude, positive mindset, and positive outlook."
"Genuine friends will NOT be intimidated by your success. They will be happy for you and celebrate you! Don't fool yourself, jealousy and friendship do NOT mix."

"Some people take loyalty way too far. I have boundaries when it comes to loyalty. Yes, I'm loyal, but not to a fault. I cannot and will not compromise myself for other people's senseless behavior. I have common sense, a great deal of wisdom, and I value my life. Loyalty shouldn't cost you your integrity, freedom, or your life. Think!"
"Dear YOU, don't compare yourself to ANYONE. Your Unique Self is empowered, powerful, and unstoppable! Your uniqueness is what makes you incomparable! Don't underestimate the beauty of just being YOU."
"Many people think less of a man if he cries because it supposedly shows a sign of weakness, but I beg to differ. A man that's in touch with his feelings is absolutely beautiful! I admire, respect, and appreciate their braveness to be vulnerable. Crying is NOT a weakness. We cannot expect our men to be strong all of the time. That's SO unfair! They have feelings, too. Don't ever make a man feel less than just because he cries. Comfort, love, and support him. Show him that you genuinely care."
