"Everybody gets so much information all day long that they lose their common sense." ••Gertrude Stein

 Strength is not the ability to fight for what you think is right... It's the willingness to do so, despite how the world and your fear tries to stop you.

If someone is falling behind in life, you don't have to remind them.
Believe me, they already know. If someone is unhealthy, they know.
If someone is failing at work, they know.
If someone is struggling in their relationships, with money, with self-image, they know.
It's what consumes their thoughts each day.

What you need to do for those who are struggling is not to reprimand, but encourage.
Tell them what's good about their lives, show them the potential that you see.
Love them where they are.
When we can't see clearly for ourselves, we need others to speak greatness over us.
People don't need you to tell them what's wrong with their lives, they already know.
They need you to reassure them that they can still make it right.
