How could I affect the outcome?

Well I’d like to start this post off by saying that I’ve thought about outcomes, and the things I do with making my life better and improving it each day and I’ve struggled a lot with that. And one portion of that is due to all the mental and emotional issues I’ve been experiencing since February this year.

When it comes to the things I believe in and those that I’ve experienced, I try my best to fight for them and stand up for them. But enough times I’ve struggled and I know and believe that it’s okay to struggle because of this quote that links perfectly:

You want change with no sacrifice. You want peace with no struggle. The world doesn’t work like that. ~ Allegiant

And I know that with getting any inch closer to more inner peace and more opportunities and changes in my life, I know I have to try and allow and accept myself to struggle. And I know it will involve also some element of risk as Demi Lovato quoted in “Can’t Back Down” from Camp Rock 2:

With every big decision comes with an equally important share of the risk.

And as I know that doing these steps will be scary I know also that they’ll be worthwhile and just like my work I’ve done with my mental health recovery with depression!

I think its about going through life with the right attitude. Recognize people for who they are not what they look like. Because it’s only our contribution to the world and to each other that it gives us any real stature. I think when there’s a whole world of people out there who might say something about who you are, the way you look. It’s a real good idea to have friends who will defend you no matter what. It’s not the big gestures that we do for other people that help us grow up, but the small choices you make for yourself. ~ Girl Meets World
