One habit thatā€™s been a big help is keeping a folder in my Photos app called ā€œHappiness.ā€ Itā€™s filled with photos of memories and screenshots of messages that bring me joy and boost my confidence when I need it most.

Having these reminders of progress has been so helpful, especially during those moments of uncertainty or when things feel overwhelming.
