Luxury is not for the faint of heart, it is not makeup, it is not restaurants or any particular style.
❤️ Real luxury is living the way you like it
With comfortable pants. In comfortable shoes. With the lipstick color that suits you, or no lipstick at all.
To have the food you like, the friends you feel comfortable with, to be together out of love, not out of a sense of duty.
Learn to let go of the unnecessary.
That which is obsolete. Worn out. And take care of what you like.
My friend's 5-year-old daughter has been visiting with her favorite spoon all her little life. She can afford the luxury of eating with the utensil she likes.
Her mother gets angry every time and tries to justify herself.
I started taking cutlery with me on picnics because I don't like eating in plastic. And I don't care what other people think about it.
You don't have to "earn" the luxury life.
It's about the fact that this thing or choice is worthy of you.
The cup your sister gave you. Dad's t-shirt that is so cozy to sleep in. Sweets according to mom's recipe. The kiss from a loved one. The interesting books. The good movies. Your favorite songs. Clean bed linen. The tidy apartment.
The life of your choice! Read also: 3 reasons why the same things are happening to you
It's a luxury not to punish yourself when something goes wrong.
Socks can tear. The cake may not turn out. Friends may not want to watch your favorite movie with you. The person you love may leave. Not getting a promotion at work. Anything can happen.
If something doesn't work for you, it doesn't affect your value. It just means that now things are not going the way you want them to.
5 approaches to not regretting anything
❤️For this moment of energy, Milena recommends:
It is a luxury to choose how to live.
Sew up torn socks or buy new ones. Ditch the cake and order sushi or try it again. Watch the movie alone or go for coffee with friends.
Run or fight! Look for a new job or revisit your old goals. See also: 10 things that will quickly make you feel better
It's a luxury to live by your own rules.
Move towards your goals. Don't make excuses. Don't be comfortable. Don't justify your choices, your dreams, your interests.
Say, "I can't be like that." And then, "I can do it."
