mental health. So let's just dive straight into it. The first one,

which is very easy, but I think is very uncommon for people to do, is this, if something bothers

you, if something happens in your life, if somebody says something, if something happens,

whatever it might be, if something bothers you after 24 hours of it happening,

then speak up within 48 hours. Because if something is lingering, if something is still around,

if it's still in the back of your head, it's taking up some form of physical, mental, and emotional energy for you. It's trying to show you

something. And so what we tend to do, and I did this for years, is if something bothered me,

I just waited until I forgot about it or, you know, quote unquote forgot about it, or until it just

didn't have as much energy. But I want you to understand that just because you ignore something does not make it go away. That thing is always

in the back of your head and then you develop some sort of narrative around it around,

oh, well, they said this because of this and this is how they are. This is why in relationships,

you know, you'll let something go, you let something go, you let something go, and then something small happens,

and it ends up being the straw that broke the camel's back, but you explode because it's all of

these buildups of just not speaking up for yourself. And I know I get a lot of messages from people who

say that they're people pleasers, so they don't speak up for themselves, they don't hold boundaries.

It's something that we need to get better at. You know, don't allow things to fester and grow inside of you because those

things over time over and over and over again start to turn into resentment. And I don't know about you.
