you can already be proud of yourself. you don’t need to achieve anything, look a certain way or become this person you have in mind to be proud of who you are. your existence is already something to be proud of
self love tip: yall need to stop thinking there is someone out there better than you. that flawed kind of logic in which we’re told ‘you’re always going to meet someone stronger, prettier, faster, etc than you’ is BULLSHIT!!!!! no one is better, prettier, smarter, or greater than you. when you start viewing people as your equal, you start to feel more solidified in your own self expression. and if they have things that you don’t or things you want, you can be able to achieve it too??? you are never below someone or inferior to anybody. it’s your birthright to feel good and confident in yourself bc you are the only one that is you. so the next time you see a pretty girl or a very handsome guy, don’t think that they’re more attractive than you, remind yourself that yall are BOTH bad bitches! ❤️
“To be beautiful means to be yourself.You don’t need to be accepted by others. You need to accept yourself. When you are born a lotus flower, be a beautiful lotus flower, don’t try to be a magnolia flower. If you crave acceptance and recognition and try to change yourself to fit what other people want you to be, you will suffer all your life. True happiness and true power lie in understanding yourself, accepting yourself, having confidence in yourself.”
