5 ways – to live a positive life
1: Stop comparing: It’s hard to not compare ourselves to someone else because we’ve become so programmed in doing so. When we compare we forget to see the beauty within ourselves. There’s no one like us and when we compare we lose ourselves. Remind yourself that your life is worth living and you won’t feel …
