What has always helped me is perspective. I remember the past, how hard shit used to be, and where I come from. I remind myself how absolutely fucked my life and my loved ones lives would be back in the country we came from, not having a university to attend. In the states, I remember working as a food runner and being treated like absolute garbage by the head chef. I remember working quick service at Disney and the floor being so slippery from the grease that I had to walk in an unnatural way so I developed back pain. It is so much better now and remembering how much it sucked makes me thankful!
