It’s not always easy to be proud of yourself.
For many of us, beating yourself up over bigger setbacks or small mistakes becomes a habit that feels more familiar and leaves little room for being kind towards oneself.
That was certainly the case for me in the past but by improving my own self-esteem and seeing myself and what I have done in a self-kinder light I have turned that around.
I hope this post with 73 of the most powerful be proud of yourself quotes can help you to do the same.
“Very little is needed to make a happy life; it is all within yourself, in your way of thinking.”
Marcus Aurelius
“If you want happiness for an hour — take a nap.
If you want happiness for a day — go fishing.
If you want happiness for a year — inherit a fortune.
If you want happiness for a lifetime — help someone else.”
Chinese Proverb

But if you say yes your life can expand and deepen. The yes allows you to open up your life to more happiness.
Today I would like to share 10 things that I have said yes to and that have helped me to become happier in my life.
Pick one of these that resonate the most with you and focus on making it a part of your life.

To help you and motivate you to make a positive change if you deep down think and feel that you need to.
In today’s post I want to share timeless poems about love, happiness, death and beauty.
These are 26 of the best poems about life of all time (in my opinion).
Some from recent times. Some from several hundred years ago.
I hope you’ll find these poems as beautiful and insightful about living life, common life struggles and the fleeting nature of our existence as I have. And that at least one or a few of them will help you to understand yourself a bit better or to improve today in some way.
“A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty.”
