18 motivational thoughts to move on after the bad

“This sucks“—but it will be alright once you move on.

Just today my boyfriend and I missed our flight home from London because we didn‘t hear the alarm go off in the morning. What followed was a long, exhausting argument, and I think if we had decided to not follow our need to look for reasons, faults, and mistakes, it would have ended earlier.

I then ended up waiting at the airport alone (he took another flight) for 7 hours with a low phone battery (which I needed for boarding).

I was feeling like crap, and I really wanted to just hide and cry.

But I decided not to do that.

Instead, I decided to learn something out of this situation and move on.

Now I am writing this blog post at the airport, providing you with the affirmations I told myself to recover from the toxic situation, hoping to help you move on after your bad situation, no matter what situation that is.

Do you have a hard time moving on after something really shitty happens? Don't worry, you're not alone. But you can get out of there easier than you think. Read these 18 motivational thoughts to help you move on! #moveon #motivational #inspirationalquotes #personalgrowth — Pin me for later!

1. “Shit happens”

but…

2. “This moment will soon be gone.

3. “It won’t matter in the far future”

so that‘s why I should just…

4. “keep breathing.”

I don‘t let the oxygen level in my blood sink because…

5. „It is not as bad as I think it is“

Don‘t make it worse by thinking too much about it and regretting. Don‘t look for reasons. Accept it.

6. „I am allowed to make mistakes.“

…and regretting what happened won‘t bring me anywhere.

7. „I am going to accept my mistakes and know:“

8. „To every problem, there is a solution.“

And no matter how bad I am feeling…

9. „I will find that solution“

10. „And everything will work out“

11. „Just smile.“

12. „Swallow it down and move on.“

because…

13. „the world keeps turning,“

14. „Life goes on.“

15. „Tomorrow is a new day“.

16. „I only keep the good and let go of the bad.“

Because…

17. „I can learn something from this“

and…

18. „It will be fine.“

Shit just happens and it sucks. Remember:

It is always your own choice what you make out of it. Don‘t let it ruin your mood, or even your day.

You can be angry for some time, you even should allow your anger, but then don’t forget to let it go eventually and move on, because holding onto the bad will not benefit you. You have the choice, so decide to not remain stuck, no matter how much it sucks.

Don‘t let yourself be defined by the bad happening to you.
Decide to make the best out of every situation.
Take only the positive and get rid of the ballast.
You decide the way you are feeling.

So choose wisely.
