One of the things depression does best is convince us that we need to solve everything at once.

We think about next week.

Next month.

Next year.

All the things that could go wrong.

All the things we haven't accomplished yet.

All the ways our life isn't where we want it to be.

And eventually the weight of it all becomes overwhelming.

But life is rarely lived all at once.

It's lived one day at a time.

One conversation at a time.

One decision at a time.

One step at a time.

You don't need to figure out the rest of your life today.

You just need to make it through today.

And sometimes that's more than enough.

What's one small thing you're grateful for today?

Also, if you're going through a tough time right now, I want you to know that I post daily mental health videos about how to deal with painful thoughts.

What if we thought about risks differently?
That a risk isn't a "win" or "lose" situation as much as a lesson, and either way, we get the wisdom.

One of the biggest lies depression tells us is that we need to have everything figured out before we take the first step.

We think we need a perfect plan.

We think we need certainty

We think we need to know exactly how we're going to get from where we are today to where we want to be.

But that's not how growth works.

Most people who accomplish incredible things didn't start because they knew exactly what they were doing.

They started because they were willing to take one small step despite not knowing.

One phone call.

One workout.

One application.

One conversation.

One day of not giving up.

You don't have to know how you're going to get through the next year.

You don't even have to know how you're going to get through the next month.

Sometimes all you need to do is take the next step.

The path often becomes visible after you start walking it.

What's something in your life you've been waiting to start?

This is such a positive way to explain the importance of routines. I'm a strong believer in routines for mental health. It helps SO much! Tell us in the comments what kind of routine you want to start so we can help!

One of the hardest lessons I had to learn during my recovery was that not everyone deserves access to my peace.

For years, I gave other people the power to determine how I felt.

A rude comment could ruin my day.

Someone else's anger could become my anxiety.

Someone else's negativity could become my burden.

But eventually I realized something:

Protecting your peace isn't selfish.

It's necessary.

You don't have to attend every argument you're invited to.

You don't have to prove your worth to people who refuse to see it.

And you don't have to sacrifice your mental health trying to change people who don't want to change.

Your energy is limited.

Spend it on healing.

Spend it on growth.

Spend it on building a life you actually enjoy.

Protect your peace.

What’s something you’ve learned to protect your peace from?
