Double tap if you are ever afraid to feel good about yourself, proud of yourself, pretty, smart, etc. for fear of being thought arrogant. Like if you have thought that you do not DESERVE to feel that way about yourself because you are “too skinny”, “too fat”, “too short”, “too tall”, etc. ……..

You know what? Who gets to decide how you feel about yourself? Some random? A friend who is suffering her own insecurities? Your parents? Who? Who do you consider to be “the boss of you”? If the answer is “none of the above”, then why do other people get to decide how you feel about yourself??

…..

I’ll tell you what, though – 9 times out of 10, no one else is thinking those things that you are afraid that they are thinking. And that one out of ten chance? Guess what? That person is a jerk! Or suffering their own insecurities and projecting, because the things that we most judge in others are the things that we think about ourselves. So stop worrying about what anyone else thinks. Start feeling good about yourself. Start loving yourself. Don’t love yourself conditionally. Don’t love yourself “when”, love yourself NOW! Because who the frack cares, you guys, what ANYONE else thinks about you? Especially since far fewer people are concerned about your stuff. They are way more concerned about themselves, too. …………
