When you feel like giving up.

"When you feel like giving up; just remember why you held on for so long to begin with." 
My everyday motivation.
It's kind of like doing a 500 piece puzzle and ending it at 450 pieces completed. 
It seems worthless.
And some days we feel like that too. 
Someday's I feel like that
We're only human its only normal for everyone to come to their breaking point.
I like to look at it this way,

After the storm comes a Rainbow.

There's different reasons on why we feel that way.
But we just have to find that little spark inside and light it up.
"The harder you fall the higher you bounce"
Even though it sometimes isn't true literally it is in a way.

Cliques.

Sometimes we stereotype and as soon as we see someone who gets straight A's is quiet, wears glasses, speaks silly, AS A "NERD". Or a cheerleader, who has plenty of friend, is stereotyped to be "POPULAR."
But lets think of how that persons life is in reality, if we would've really known that person would you guys be friends? Think about meeting that person before you judge. Sometimes other kids feel left out when there's cliques. Cliques most often bully when they get together. You could try to have as diverse group of friends as possible and don't get into the the clique scenario.
Don't judge a book by its cover.

Broken homes, Broken hearts.

Many children do not grow up in stable families and family problems can have profound, negative effects on a child’s soul. Most end up engaging illicit activities. Some develop psychologic problems they've done studies on children who come from a broken home. BREAK THE CYCLE. I can't write a lot about this subject, because not every broken home situation is the same. All I can say is prove everyone wrong.
Be successful in EVERYTHING you do. At least try and shoot for the moon, because even if you miss you'll land among the stars.
I can't tell you how to do it but YOU can. Because A broken bone can heal, but the wound a word opens can fester forever.

Young Love.

Most of us go through this phase in our lives where we fall in "LOVE" especially at a young age.
I see it all the time, where the girl believes that maybe HE is the one. Or sometimes HE believes she's the one.
Sometimes a guy is using a girl or maybe even a girl is using a guy for something other than love. Maybe to seem like a cooler person, to get attention, maybe just to be sexually active, because I've seen it. I'm not saying not to date as a teenager but, there's plenty of other things to explore in this world than having a boyfriend/girlfriend at our age. Because everyone changes once they go through that phase. They forget about their friends and family and are basically BLINDED by love that might not exist. I've seen so many different cases about wasting your teenage years on teenage love. 
One I'd like to use is becoming pregnant or a parent at a young age. I have friends who have become pregnant or parents and that's basically when your teenage years end. Your relationship changes, there's tension and It's not your life anymore it becomes that CHILDS life. As teens we really can't make a commitment.. Sometimes we can't find love from our family, friends, parents so we think we could find it in a relationship. Being a teen is all about discovering new things and being curious but curiosity killed the cat, curiosity can lead into dangerous situations. 
Teen love is overwhelming, intense and a little frightening, not only for the teens involved in it but also for their parents and friends. Teenage love can be a positive and desirable experience. It offers the opportunity to learn relationship skills that are necessary later in life. Some teens even grow up together, marry and remain together for life. However, teens in love are also likely to engage in risky behaviors and test limits set by adults. Teenagers who have fallen in love need both support and firm guidance from their friends and family.
But i'll just end with this.

- It's not about how hard you fall, but how fast you get up.

Criticism.

We all do it. But sometimes that kind of backfires on us doesn't it? 
What I mean is maybe someone is around listening to what you have to say, or you're probably just cracking jokes with someone who you THINK is your friend? A phrase that I like is "Be careful what you say; the walls have ears." which is not literally true but is a great metaphor, just be careful about what you speak and who you speak around. But has this ever happened to you? Where you think "OH they'll never find out about what I said" but somehow they do? Sometimes you feel guilty or regret what you've said. 
Other people criticize, because its a way for them to feel more superior than others; By kicking someone who's already down. But what we don't realize is people who do that stoop to a LOW level. That's their way to feel better than everyone else. I can't lie I've criticized many times and have BEEN criticized, i've never tried to criticize with bad intentions or thought that anyone tried criticizing me with bad intentions. But it has affected me later on. Maybe the person you were gossiping with a year ago now does not talk to you and just to weigh you down they tell that person as if YOU were the only one doing it. Things are often misinterpreted and become a bigger issue than they already were. Sometimes they aren't even issues to begin with. My point is some teens even adults refuge themselves with criticism/criticizing but we should think of how that person would FEEL if you were to say all those negative things to THEM. Basically you're being a hypocrite.  
P.S. Whenever an issue occurs because of criticizing don't jump to conclusions and attack them back. That'll only make the problem worse. 
Remember, COMMUNICATION IS KEY.
