Ignoring Me Means You Agree To Kill Me, My Child And My Family, I Am Hadeel From Gaza 🍉 My Husband

The work starts now, in the silence, where no one sees the effort but where all the results are made. I don’t need anyone to cheer me on because I know what I’m capable of. I am my own biggest motivator, and I won’t stop. There will be days when it feels like I can’t go on, but I will keep pushing forward because that’s where growth happens in the struggle, in the grind, when no one is watching. I don’t need recognition, I don’t need applause. All I need is to keep my head down and focus on what’s in front of me. The path won’t be easy, but I don’t expect it to be. I’ll face the discomfort, the exhaustion, the doubt, and still keep moving. I’ll work in the quiet, trusting that my efforts are building something solid, something that will eventually show. It’s not about proving anything to anyone else but it’s about knowing I did my best, even when no one was there to witness it. So I’ll keep working, keep pushing, keep moving forward, because I know what I’m building.

horrible news: you have to practice to level up your skills because it's unrealistic to think you'll be good at everything first try

You have options. I promise you, you have options. Even if you blow up your whole life, change your name and train hop half way across the country- you still have options. So long as you are alive you have choices and chances. If you can’t see them, ask someone else. Ask a stranger or someone who loves you. Anyone not in your situation will have different a perspective. Stay safe and stay alive.

If you're struggling to make the change, it's because the old behavior is still meeting a need.

Instead of shaming yourself, identify the deeper need and allow it to exist

Then get curious about a new way to meet it.

“Listen closely: the only time it’s too late to change yourself is when you’re dead. Until then, you’re simply making excuses or lying to yourself.”

via NYPost: Immigration and Customs Enforcement is preparing to launch a “big f–king operation” across sanctuary cities — including Chicago and New York — immediately after President-elect Donald Trump’s inauguration, multiple sources told The Post.

Starting Jan. 21, multi-day “ground operations” will be launched across cities that have served as safe havens for migrants because the local authorities do not cooperate with the federal government when it comes to immigration issues, sources said.
