Dear Young Kings and Queens: A Book of Affirmations for the Transitioning Youth

Dear young Kings and Queens, I know what it's like to be a struggling youth, trying to live up to everyone's expectations, all while facing daily adversity. It is so hard trying to be everything to everyone and still maintain your own identity. Growing up I saw, heard, and experienced so much. Between parents, society, teachers, churches, peer pressure, puberty, life, and mental overload, I was constantly questioning: Who am I? It took a while, but I realized I am the master of my own fate. No matter what I was taught or told, I controlled the outcome. It was up to me to implement my teachings into my everyday life. Between the tender age of 8-18, we go through so many transitions. My goal is to reach a multitude of youth, providing them with daily affirmations to promote positive thinking, confidence, empathy, and compassion. For every youth that cried out for help, craved love, wanted attention, and was open to guidance, I created this for you. This is a guide to help you along the way. It's about what works for you. No matter how long the path may be, stay the course and see it through. Dear young Kings and Queens, what you think and how you feel will determine what you will become. Get in the habit of waking up every day and affirming yourself. Speak life, love, hope, change, prosperity, and peace. Know that there is nothing that you can't handle. Feed the next generation knowledge to make our youth a better version of people.
