Life is too short.

Life is too short to spend it worrying all the time.

To obsess about little things you might have done wrong.

To try to please everyone at your own expense.

To hold back out of some fear of rejection or disapproval.

To try and figure out every little thing that is wrong with you.

To hope and live only for the day when everything will be perfect.

Learn to love what is today.

It's too short to try and fit a mold that was not made for you.

To feel guilty about things long gone.

You did not know then what you know now,

So let it be free.

Life is too short to stay in the same place if it is not right for you anymore.

To wait for everything to be perfect before you follow your dream.

To not try even if there is the possibility of failure.

Never trying and never knowing what could have been is way worse.

Life is too short not to embarrass yourself every now and again.

It's good to be reminded that life is an experiment not to be taken too seriously.

It's too short to accept limitations placed onto you by others.

To hide away in fear of your light blinding someone else.

To wait until you are perfect to love yourself.

To second guess yourself at every turn.

A poor decision made is better than a great decision not made.

Only that where you will learn.

To spend your thoughts on all that is wrong when there is so much that is right.

To live in fear of being alone.

Learn to accept and enjoy your own company and you will always have a friend.

It's too short to never allow yourself to just enjoy the moment out of some fear that you might be missing something to worry about.

To place your self-worth in someone else's hand.

To feel guilty for not doing what the experts say you should do.

To not live your life to the fullest,

Whatever that may mean to you.

Life is too short to feel bad when you stumble and fall.

Why not lie and enjoy the beautiful sky for a moment while you're on the ground?

One day when you are on your deathbed,

Will you feel bad for trying to live life to the ultimate?

Even if that meant failing and taking a few wrong turns.

Or will you regret when you look back and see that there are so many things you have left untouched.

Out of fear of what you could have lost.

It is now time to let go of anxiety and fear.

Or at least accept that it is a natural part of life sometimes.

It is now time to jump and go for it and soak up all the moments life has to offer.

Let go and jump in.

I really liked this! Lots of food for thought. I've tended to follow my heart and have been 'lucky' enough to travel when I was in my late 20's. Work in 3 different countries.Had rewarding jobs, many of which helped people and found a home in the Bay of islands. It's only since my health changed and I got older that life has become less 'Interestng,' and mundane. Thanks for reminding me! I think you take less risks when you age and stability is important BUT life is too short😊
