In this world, we tend to forget just how small our problems are in the grand scheme of things. While we might get worked up and stressed, nothing is ever as bad as we think it is.

As long as you are doing your best, you should be proud of yourself. Below I am going to go over some of the most powerful truths I have faced in my life that everyone has to face at one point or another. While some of these will be harder to face than others, they are all important.

7 Universal Truths That Will Help You To Remove Stress From Your Life:

1. No one is perfect.

Perfection in this world does not exist. You are not perfect and you cannot be perfect so stop striving for perfection. Just be yourself, everyone has their own flaws and things they dislike about themselves and their lives. You are not alone in this.

2. You cannot control everything.

You cannot control everything, it’s just not possible. You have to be aware of this so that you can let go of the pain behind the things you have no control over. If you cannot change it you need to stop obsessing over it.

3. Toxic people should not be allowed in your life.

Toxic people do not deserve a place in your life and the sooner you accept that the better. Cutting ties with them is never easy but it is always necessary. Even the people we love the most can be doing serious damage to our mental health.

4. Change is coming whether you want it to or not.

You cannot hide from change. Change will happen whether you are ready for it or not. It is something that you have to let happen, the more you fight it the more stressed you will become.

5. Money will not make you happy.

Money can fix a lot of problems but it cannot make you happy. While you might think it will, as long as you have what you need you can be happy even without all that extra. Money is nice and all but finding true happiness must come from within otherwise it will be just as empty.

6. Struggles are just steps towards true success.

We all face struggles and each struggle we endure is a step in the right direction. if you want success you have to get through the rough patches. Sometimes the hardest things in life teach us the most.

7. Pain helps us to grow.

Pain is never something we enjoy but it is something we all have to experience. The hard parts of life are the ones in which we grow the most. If you want to be able to move forward sometimes you have to keep going through the pain.
