We've all been there.
Your love is being abused. You feel horrible about yourself. You know that you should walk away from that person who is taking advantage of you but you can't muster up the courage to do it.
Although we've all been there and being in this place is the worst, we have to do the one thing that we never really want to do - walk away from the situation.
There's this really interesting art in leaving people who don't treat you well, respect you enough to reply to you, or don't act like you mean much to them.
On one hand you want to be close with as many potential people as you can and you reach out making an attempt to meets new friends. On the other hand you have this respect for yourself and pride in how you act.
This can be incredibly hard to do at times.
At what point do you hold your head up high and walk away from the relationship?
Your heart. If you feel deeply in your heart that you have given everything that you have to offer, given the person across from you chance after chance and they still aren't willing to give back to you, walk away. Walk away as fast as you can because that person is going to continue to take advantage of you for as long as you are around.
However, when you start to learn really what you are worth, you find it easier and easier to walk away from people who don't love you and respect you.
This doesn't at all mean that doing this isn't a painful process. It can be incredibly painful.
If you don't walk away from toxic people, you will lose yourself in the end and have to deal with the regret of knowing that you had a chance to save yourself all of this heartache.
So have the courage to walk away.
Of course, there's an art form in being able to give people second chances and really knowing when enough is enough. Truth is, you really have to dig into your heart when you are in these moments and let your inner wisdom speak.
However, it's important to always remember exactly what you are worth and what you are looking for in your life. If you negotiate for anything less, you can really get the bad end of the deal.
If you want to live a truly brilliant life, you have to devote yourself to never settling. Never settle for "good enough" because eventually that will turn into mediocrity. Instead, aim as high as you can because even though you will never achieve perfection, you will hit something called "excellence."
And living a life full of love and excellence is the way to go.
