this week's affirmation is…
i deserve optimism, je mérite l'optimisme
maintaining a positive and hopeful outlook can have a significant impact on your overall well-being and mental health
embracing optimism can help you navigate challenges, find opportunities for growth, and enhance your overall quality of life
remember that optimism doesn't mean ignoring difficulties, but rather facing them with a belief that you can overcome and learn from them
cultivating optimism can lead to greater resilience, improved relationships, and a more fulfilling life journey
so, embrace your deservingness of optimism and make a conscious effort to focus on the positive aspects of life
“i can't be a pessimist because i am alive. to be a pessimist means that you have agreed that human life is an academic matter. so, i am forced to be an optimist. i am forced to believe that we can survive, whatever we must survive.” james baldwin
