Itโs self-full to be first, to be as good as possible to you. To take care of you, keep you whole and healthy. That doesnโt mean you disregard everything and everyone. But you want to come with your cup full. You know: โMy cup runneth over.โ What comes out of the cup is for yโall. Whatโs in the cup is mine. But Iโve got to keep my cup full.
Iyanla VanzantNo matter what is going on in your life today, remember, it is only preparation. People come and go; situations rise and fall; it's all preparation for better things. You must stretch, reach, grow into your goodness. Without the preparation we receive through adversity, disappointment, confusion, or pain, we could not appreciate the goodness when it arrives.

Iyanla VanzantHave you doubted your progress, regretted your choices, put yourself down? Remember that you are doing just fine. Remind yourself right now that no matter what it looks like, you are doing the best you can. And getting better. Encourage yourself, support yourself, and celebrate every little thing about yourself.
