“I’m Blessed” by Charlie Wilson
Anyone will tell you that one of the major keys to confidence and success is being grateful.
“I’m Blessed” by Charlie Wilson talks of taking a moment to stop and realize the blessings we have in life.
Yes, sometimes it may seem like everything in the world is falling apart, but do you still have a home? A car? Were you able to eat last night? Do you have at least one person in this world that loves you?
If you do, then focus on and celebrate those blessings! I know it can be hard, but believe me, every blessing counts.

“Round of Applause” by Lecrae
Stop for a moment and ask yourself What struggles have I overcome this far?
That’s exactly what this rap song does. This rap song tells the stories of people who had all of the odds stacked against them. These people were not supposed to be successful in life because of their circumstances, and yet they put in the work and made their dreams come true.
And for that, they should give themselves a round of applause – and so should you.
You have been through so much. You have worked hard and overcame so many obstacles and difficult circumstances to get where you are today.
Take a moment to give yourself a round of applause. Realize that you did beat the odds, even when everyone (including yourself) said you couldn’t.

“It’s Alright, It’s Ok” by Shirley Ceasar ft. Anthony Hamilton
Life can be a lot. I get it, I really do.
And there are many times when we don’t need to be told to go face our fears and conquer our dreams, etc. Sometimes, we just need to simply be reminded that everything is ok.
That’s why I love this song. The first line of the chorus is “It’s alright, it’s ok. Don’t you let your troubles get in the way.”
And honestly, that’s a message that a lot of us need to hear. That despite our current troubles, we will be ok if we just hold on a little bit longer.

“He Still Loves Me” by Beyoncé and Walter Williams Sr.
Through it all, the hard work and the difficulties and just all of it, knowing that we are loved is such a relief.
This song is from the iconic 2003 movie The Fighting Temptations, a movie all about overcoming struggles and achieving victory.
I love this song because, on my worst days, when it seems like all I can do is fail, I am reminded that even in the midst of my failure, I am still loved. I am still worthy and valuable.
And you are too. Failure is inevitable. That’s just the cold hard truth.
But don’t let failure become attached to your identity. You are more than your ups and your downs.
Listening to this song will remind you that you are just as valuable on your bad days as you are on the good.
