Daily quotes #1 by Yannick

"To help yourself, is to help others. To help others, is to help yourself."

CONTROL YOUR EMOTIONS - Motivational Speech by Ben Lionel Scott

Just had this idea to start posting daily quotes that were related to the events that happened to me on that day. This is the first post I am making regarding this.

My name is Yannick, I'm 27 and I've been through so much. Drug, alcohol and gaming addictions, criminal activity, moving out at the age of 13 to more than 10 institutions, father leaving at the age of 8, a stepdad that was an alcoholic and mentally abused my mother, loneliness, depression, autism (PDD-NOS) and neurological disorder (ADHD) and a lot more things probably that I can't get track of currently. The toll it all took on me was huge.

What I am trying to get at by saying all this, is that no matter how much you have been suffering through and the things you might still be suffering from, you decide if it is going to break you or make you. You hold the power to change and flip the script. Always. You will need to search deeper within yourself and your life to find clues that can help you improve yourself as an individual and helps you express more of your own positivity. Your own effort and willpower are the two most fundamental things you need in order to progress. 

Believe in the strength of your human spirit, as I believe in the strength of your human spirit.

You got this. Start dominating (with all respect to the out world of course 😄)
