What do you thrive on? Some of us thrive on confidence, a self-reliant assurance of doing something that is intentional and unselfish, an obligation to one’s self and others. Some of us thrive on obstacles, meaning you don’t let hurdles stop you, you thrive on someone telling you it can’t be done, but yet you get it done and succeed at it well!

There are others who thrive on positivity; we push through and aside those negative thoughts, words and people to ensure we have positive outcomes, energy, ideas and well-being.   Then there are those of us who may thrive on the environment or a space that provides tranquility, or sometimes an increased amount of action which allows us to create and or become who we are, or meant to be. Some thrive independently, working well alone and without interruption where their minds are permitted to move in dimensions we are unable to appreciate, or maybe you’re that person that Thrives on being a Better You.  Not just surviving, but thriving physically, mentally and emotionally, surrounding yourself with people who challenge you and motivate you to keep moving forward, toward your goals in life.

Although your choice to thrive in various situations can feel more challenging than simply surviving, remember you’re nurturing your soul, turning a crisis into an opportunity which will eventually aid you in every aspect of life. We have to always remember to treat ourselves first with kindness, then support, and then encouragement in which you will be available and able to offer others that same kindness, support and encouragement.

To thrive is to build you up and cheer yourself on.  In the words of Maya Angelou “My mission in life is not merely to survive, but to thrive; and to do so with some passion, some compassion, some humor, and some style.”
