For me it was these.

“A focused fool can accomplish more than a distracted genius”

“Until the lion learns to write, every story will glorify the hunter”

These two quotes really helped get my @** in gear.

    Here in darkness, everything’s okay. Listen to the waves and let them fade away. Here comes a thought.

    Here Comes a Thought from Steven Universe was genuinely life-changing for me. It’s all about mindfulness and allowing yourself to process negative thoughts without punishing yourself for having them.

    This episode came when I was really struggling with anxiety, like multiple crying breakdowns a week. It finally lead me to getting therapy and I’m in a much better place now, but I still come back to it when I’m feeling overwhelmed.

      Thank you for reminding me of that song and giving me a reason to think more deeply about it. It already was a gorgeous moment in the show but I didn’t dig into it too deeply until your comment. The “looking at your thoughts without judgement” part is the hardest part for me.
