5 Reasons to Live Another Day
1. You have dreams. I'm not talking about the dreams you have at night. I'm talking about the dreams you have for your future. Live another day to try and achieve those dreams. If you have dreams then you clearly want to achieve goals. If you have goals then you can break it down into stages—you have a plan. If you have a plan then you can work on making your dreams a reality. Do NOT give up just yet.

5 Ways to Deal with Rejection
When you have a deep passion for something you'll exceed limits to achieve your goals—No matter the consequences. Being a writer becomes a breeze after a while when you've been doing it for years, then you lose focus when other things come into play. I didn't take writing seriously until earlier this year when I found inspiration, unfortunately it was under questionable circumstances, but it was my biggest accomplishment at that time. I was very proud of myself because I felt important and accomplished. With accomplishments comes failures and rejection, it's all a part of the building process. I've failed numerous times throughout this journey but here I am still writing and trying to share my work with the world as you should too.

Never Take the First Opportunity
In April, I graduated from the University of Pittsburgh. I had it all planned out: I was going to stay home for the summer and relax for a month before beginning my career in New York City. It has always been my dream. It was all I ever wanted. I had built a life there, and I wanted to be a journalist. I had interned at Harper's Bazaar and fell in love with that lifestyle. I wanted to write, I wanted to meet talented people, and I wanted to look out into the big city every day of my life.

Being OK with Others' Disapproval
When you really care about someone, you care about what they think of you. It's a perfectly normal part of forming connections. When I buy a new item of clothing, I wonder if my husband will like it. I constantly wonder what my kids will think of me when they grow up. When I meet up with friends, I wonder what they think about me. Almost always, if there was something I could do to positively impact the way someone viewed me, be it about a deeply important part of who I am or something as simple and, frankly, vain as a new dress, I would do it.

For When Everything Falls Apart
Have you ever felt like you had your whole life together? Hook, line, and sinker, 'I'm gonna be a neuroscientist, and marry Ryan Gosling and tame his wild soul, and vacation in those huts on the water that have been in every vacation movie in the last decade. You put yourself into the med school, move to L.A. to find your man, and save street change and waitressing tips to go to Bora Bora.'

8 Things You Should Know About Life
1. You learn from failure. As you go through the trials and tribulations of life, you'll always find yourself staring in the face of hard decisions, and when you're faced with these decisions, what would you do? Lie down and die? No, that's not an option. You'd fight back and you may lose but that's the beauty of failure, you learn from it. Mistakes only pave the way to success
