KEY TAKEAWAYS
Each person is a vessel. You choose what to fill yourself with. It can be anger, or it can be kindness. Never forget you can empty and refill the vessel that is you.

In life bad things happen. The only thing that defines if it is good or bad is how you perceive it, and how you react to the situation.
You can raise your frequency of being to be above the pain.
Never focus on the negative. Acknowledge that something bad has happened and talk about it to someone. But don´t dwell on it and keep discussing it.
Dare to go beyond the glass ceiling of what society says you are worth.
When you sell yourself for less, you really are saying “I´m not worth it”.
Express your creativity. There is healing in the creative process.
Share what you create, there is someone out there who desperately needs to see or experience what you create.
If you want to do it, do it. Don´t let other people´s perception of who you are and can be, limit you. 
BEST MOMENTS
‘Perception is the key to freedom.’
‘Manifestation is the only thing that you should concern yourself with.’
‘Life is not always the way you think it should be, but sometimes it's the gratitude for how it is, that creates the change.’
‘Not being afraid is the most powerful tool you have.’
