Words of Encouragement for Courage & Strength When You Need It: Things to Say to Yourself
1. I can’t control everything that happens to me, but I can control the way I respond to what happens. In my response is my power.
2. I am the guardian of my mind, body, and soul. I protect myself from negativity. No darkness can dim my light.
3. I am always doing my best, and my best is always getting better.
4. I take my life one step at a time. My next step doesn’t need to be a big one.
5. I don’t need to have all the answers. I have the courage to honor the questions before the answers come.
6. With enough time, effort, and dedication I can learn what I need to succeed.
7. I am strong enough and wise enough to grow from my pain.
8. I can use my mind to generate the feelings I want more of.
9. My dreams are possible and I am capable of living into them.
10. I am more than my small thoughts. I am more than fear and worry. I am so much more.
11. With enough faith, action, and love I can beat doubt, defiance, and division.
12. Reality is bendable to my will. I am responsible for the reality I choose to participate in.
13. I can create real, positive change no matter my current situation.
14. All the resources I need to win are within.
15. I am capable of more than I can even dream.
16. My worth is immeasurable.
17. The purpose of my life is to live — freely, vibrantly, joyously, lovingly.
You’re more than a body, more than a mind. You’re a soul full of stardust and mystery and sometimes that looks and feels a lot like darkness.

I am grateful for my family. I was going through life challenges and don’t know what to do anymore.
I sat myself down and I started telling myself God is bigger than any situations. I am being encouraged for reading a couple of the word of encouragement on this page and that made me feel a bit relieved.
