“happiness is often confused with perfection; it is seen as a smoothness in external events where everything you like and love about life remains precisely abundant. the problem with perfection is that it is mythical; it is an imaginary pathway that, with enough time, will lead back to sorrow. being attached to perfection is not only a refusal to accept the ups and downs of reality but also a manifestation of the craving to control. life does not unfold in a straight and unbreakable line; its movements are choppy, unpredictable, more similar to waves in the ocean. and much of it is out of our control. giving external events a high degree of importance over how you feel inside will lead you far away from happiness.”
― Yung Pueblo, The Way Forward

“they asked her,

"can time heal you?"

she answered,

"you are the key to healing, not time. hurt, trauma, and dense conditioning will continue sitting in your mind, impacting your emotions and behaviour, until you go inward. what heals is a self-love, learning to let go, self-awareness, and building new habits."

(intention)”
― Yung Pueblo, The Way Forward

“you are not always going to get it right. sometimes the reaction will be too strong, and it will pull you into saying and doing things that are counterproductive. if the trigger is too intense or if you are already in a low mood or exhausted, your reactions can ore easily govern your thoughts and your behaviour.

even if you have grown immensely, you are not flawless. this is why growth is nonlinear. healing is not about developing an attachment to perfection; it is about recognizing the moments when you're moving in the opposite direction from our longterm goals and building awareness around what you can do differently next time.

recognizing when you get it wrong is not an invitation to be hard on yourself. in fact, it is a sign of victory. it means you can see yourself better than you did the past, and you understand what areas you need to grow in next. real self-love embraces personal growth, but it does so gently.”
― Yung Pueblo, The Way Forward

“create what your intuition is asking you to create. do this as an act of service. you have no idea whom you may end up helping or even the lives you may save simply by following the truth of your heart.

don't let fear stop you from listening to your inner calling. don't let an unclear path discourage you from taking steps into the unknown. the greatest you arises when you begin to embrace the space beyond your comfort zone.

you don't need to have all the answers right now to eventually be successful. you just need to be willing to take one step at a time. embrace challenge. remember how strong you are and how much you have already overcome.

you don't need to move quickly. even slow movement will get you where you want to go. let yourself live in your power. you hold a unique vision, and that is your gift to the world.”
― Yung Pueblo, The Way Forward

“when you commit to growth, your old habits will not make it easy. doubt will roar and shout and try to trick you into thinking you've made much less progress than you really have, the mind likes to retrace its deepest grooves again and again, weaving a dense barrier to change. luckily, with persistence, you can work through even the dense mental patterns, establishing new pathways that nourish you. persistence is your greatest asset in your transformational quest.”
