The skill to think critically but respond kindly is a difficult balance to strike, and takes constant reminders to maintain. #thoughtoftheday018

Having a mindset of your own is the greatest favour you can do for yourself. #thoughtoftheday004

Beginning a new chapter is not just a breath of fresh air, it’s a peaceful yet powerful decision to heal and advance. #thoughtoftheday007

If you’ve put in half the effort and expect an outstanding result, pray that you’ve done a lot of good in your past life for that kind of luck; If you’ve sacrificed so much in life yet the goal is still unreachable, then rest assure that there’s a greater goal out there which you will attain. #thoughtoftheday010

Always wake up with a happy and determined thought #thoughtoftheday011

I know I’m getting somewhere when I’m striving to achieve nothing less than the extraordinary. #thoughtoftheday015

Stay calm no matter what. Listen, absorb, analyse and respond in a mature manner. #thoughtoftheday016

When in doubt, ask. Don’t stop until you get an answer which you’d give someone else. #thoughtoftheday017

It’s when you can feel the yin, buried deep beneath the layers of the yang, that you’ll be resilient enough to endure whatever comes your way and still be happy. #thoughtoftheday021

I’m given this life to live because god knows I’m capable of dealing with the sadness, disappointment and mishaps, yet still be able to find the in-depth beauty in my surroundings, create memorable moments, build treasured relationships and develop happiness from my life. #thoughtoftheday025

Everyone is fighting their own battles. Either be kind or get lost. #thoughtoftheday034

You’re only capable if you believe yourself to be. Not your parents, not your colleagues, not your friends. Just you. #thoughtoftheday053

Love yourself enough to understand that spoiling yourself occasionally is not a luxury but a necessity. #thoughtoftheday054

Question life just as you would question a favourite topic. #thoughtoftheday059

Smile, stay calm and remember not to blow up. Losing our cool may pay off for a moment but never in the long run. #thoughtoftheday065

I may not know who I am yet, but I do know that I’m a masterpiece in the making. #thoughtoftheday068

You know you truly want something when the thought of leaving it sends a tsunami of regret as you digest the possibility of spending your life without it. #thoughtoftheday070

On some days, just breathe. Everything is working out for the best. It just takes time. #thoughtoftheday073

When you’re busy contributing to improve the world, remember to spend time improving your physical, mental and emotional wellbeing. #thoughtoftheday074

Take a break. It helps. #thoughtoftheday075

Select given advice mindfully. #thoughtoftheday076

It takes constant practice and awareness to know who to say ‘yes’ and ‘no’ to. #thoughtoftheday077

Life is unfair at times and the trick is to always hope that there is a good reason for the injustice we feel. #thoughtoftheday001

Be kind, but don’t be naive. #thoughtoftheday026

Do you want it badly enough? If you do, just give it your all so that you won’t need a second chance to do it right. #thoughtoftheday003

Certain things don’t come with a second chance when we don’t give everything we’ve got, which is why it’s so important not to slack on our first try. #thoughtoftheday009

There are so many points in my life when I question my choice. I never felt like I could count on someone completely. When I do, the truth just sinks back in and prove how wrong I was to even bother hoping. #thoughtoftheday005

Don’t shy away, you might look like you’re ignoring friends and opportunities to enhance yourself. #thoughtoftheday014

When there’s a possibility to improve, there’ll be endless negative feedback; when it’s a sure lost, there’ll only be compliments on the strengths without suggesting how to improve. It’s peculiar how there isn’t a balance between the compliments and insults to call it ‘constructive criticism’ #thoughtoftheday013

When the word ‘secret’ escapes one’s lips, the secret already lost the status it purports to have. #thoughtoftheday012

I learnt that sometimes I don’t get where I thought I could simply because my attention and commitment were split. #thoughtoftheday008

Don’t ever blame the source of allegations, blame the person who chose not to ignore the unproven allegations. #thoughtoftheday002

Let go #thoughtoftheday006

Sometimes, it’s just about sitting by yourself in silence and think of nothing. Stare into space with an empty mind to have your mind and soul relaxed and replenished before charging again with a clear head and a revived determination. #thoughtoftheday019

Always believe that you’ve been pushed away from something you want because something better is just waiting to be found. #thoughtoftheday020

Remember all the lessons and useful advice you’ve gathered from your past because the future assumes that you’re already aware of what is to be looked out for. #thoughtoftheday023

To succeed is to stay focussed and determined even when everything seems to be falling apart. #thoughtoftheday024

Talking about your problems will not solve the problem, focussing on the solution does. #thoughtoftheday022

It’s okay to feel like giving up once in a while, so long as you never ever end up giving up. #thoughtoftheday028

When you want something, you’ll find a way #thoughtoftheday029

Interest is the ultimate driving force behind every success #thoughtoftheday030

I’m kind not because I’m innocent. I’m kind because I felt how wretched some parts of the world can be and I choose not to be like that. #thoughtoftheday031

Allow your curiosity to enlighten your fears. #thoughtoftheday032

Sometimes all it takes is a bit of fresh air and a few quite hours alone to get back up again. #thoughtoftheday033

Talented people aren’t rare. The people who can spot and help talented people are rare. #thoughtoftheday042

Sometimes it is the simplest things that buries the deepest secrets and the most complex meaning. #thoughtoftheday035

Understand that not everyone may be as lucky as you. Don’t judge. Comprehend and respect them instead. #thoughtoftheday055

Depression is not a mental disorder. It’s an emotional fatigue. Quit judging. Be kind but not sympathetic. #thoughtoftheday037

When you finally decide to go with what you want for yourself instead of letting your circumstances dictate your situation, you’re free. #thoughtoftheday036
