So what if I'm not good enough?

No, seriously. So what if I'm not 'good enough'?

Who am I hurting by not being good enough? No one. Writing is a craft that gives, not takes away. Even the worst stories in the world can give the reader something, whether it was meant to or not.

So what if I gain a reputation for being a 'bad' writer? So what if people avoid my work for all the reasons I fear? So what? No seriously. So what?

I own who I am. I write my own words. They come from my heart alone. I don't use the plagiarism machine. I don't lie about my ethnicity. I don't exploit other people. I don't harass others, or chase them off social media. I don't hurt people to lift myself up, or for my own selfish fun. I'm not an asshole, at least, I try not to be.

So what if I'm not 'good enough'? So what if you're 'not good enough'? There's so much worse things to be than that.

And at the end of the day, I'm pretty sure, the only person who thinks I'm not good enough is myself. I mean, have you ever once looked at another person, nevermind a writer, and gone 'you're not good enough'? I haven't. I bet you haven't either.

Maybe you and I, we should show ourselves a little kindness tonight.

It would be hilarious if Dick (recently dumped) and Jason (perpetually uninterested) were discussing their lack of dating prospects and Tim asks what they're talking about and Dick explains before going, "High five Timmy" and Tim's like "Yeah no thanks, I've got [bitches]." And both Jason and Dick are stunned.

things that make me feel clean and refresh⋆.ೃ࿔*:･🫧

♡ ofc nothing makes me feel super refreshed like a shower. i've talked about this in my other posts but showering is like a reset button and you will always feel better after taking one

♡ using baby powder, especially in the hotter months

ok i am in LOVE with the way baby powder smells and i've been obsessed with using it this summer. it rly helps during the hotter months when u sweat and i highly recommend…💬🎀

♡ a tall glass of water with LOTS of ice (bonus points if u add a lemon wedge)

♡ scents with notes of coconut, baby powder, vanilla, and white floral

♡ a cold sheet mask

i say a cold sheet mask because when the sheet mask is room temperature, its still refreshing but if u leave it in the fridge for a couple of minutes before u put it on it makes a WORLD of a difference i swear…💬🎀

♡ getting off of my phone and doing literally ANYTHING else

“What I've learned from women who are totally killing it”

Part 1

🐚 The whole ‘be kind cause it's free’ is a lie. To become kind requires compassion for the world. Humans who are kind are the bravest humans to exist. So be kind and let your kindness have no motive.

🐚 Let go of all the past situations and people who aren't serving you anymore. It all happened for a reason, trust the higher power.

🐚 The moment you let go, magic begins. Try it yourself!

🐚 Take your studies seriously and do it with discipline. Knowledge is power.

🐚 Self love is not selfish instead it's the most selfless thing to do.

🐚 Develop a strong relationship with God/Universe.

🐚 Leave the victim mindset right now. It won't lead you anywhere & you'll end up questioning why all the bad things happened to you.

🐚 The moment you actually leave the victim mindset you'll immediately enter your lucky girl era.

🐚 Don't feel shy, guilty, bad, scared to ask for help. Remember help will be given to those who'll ask for it.

🐚 Use silk pillowcase. It is going to be so benefitting for your skin and hair. They'll thank you!

🐚 Read newspaper/news headlines. Be aware about what's happening in the world.

🐚 Being financially independent is a necessity. You don't want to feel guilty for every purchase, do you?

The ego has a negativity bias-

“It tends to focus on what is missing rather than celebrating what you already have. When we do not understand this nature of the ego mind we are always hungry for more, never truly enjoying what we have already accomplished. Learn to appreciate where you are and through that you will snap out of the ego’s grip. Seeking more without focusing on what you already have will always leave you feeling like you have nothing. Always be grateful.”

Here is a valuable piece of advice I can offer you while there is still time left in 2024 for you to reflect whether you need it or not.

We live in an impatient and rushed society, and we have been slowly driven to believe in recent years that everything needs to happen instantly, otherwise it's best to just move on to the next thing.

But if you want to succeed, and grow, and become the girl and woman you desire, you will have to unlearn this mentality, and grow accostumed to patience being one of your strongest traits.

You already know good things take time. But do you really know it?

Do you understand the power of expecting? Do you comprehend that "watching the grass grow" is not a bad thing? Do you really accept that the laws of Nature care nothing for the ticking of the clock?

Breathe deeply. Whatever it is you desire, it will happen when it happens. If you rush it, you will botch it. If you try to take shortcuts, you will get lost. If you underestimate it, it will chew you up.

Constant, determined, focused action. Every day, until it happens. No matter what the calendar says. You keep acting, until it happens.

Saying 'sex and food and gore are variations on the same concept so you can write them interchangeably' is so crazy because like you are fundamentally missing the point of theme, it's meaning Assigned to concepts that don't necessarily have intrinsic meaning beyond what they fundamentally describe.

Like you Can write sex like food effectively if it's serving a purpose (to communicate about the nature of the sex, the emotional stakes, the character's personality and their relationships, etc) and using eating as a metaphor effectively communicates this purpose- ie to evoke that the sex is an act of consumptive indulgence (maybe at the expense of the other? is it self-serving for one or both? do they treat it like mindless snacking? is it like binge eating?), or that it's an attempt to satiate a feeling of starvation (does it? are they still hungry?), etc. It Can work very effectively if you're using the food connection to convey additional layers of meaning that are not implicit in the act itself.

It does NOT work if you're operating on the basis of 'sex and gore and eating actually all the same thing as an act consumption and love and violence and sensation and cannibalism dog motif take me to church'. Like just first of all you are Wrong, these are meanings you've attached to (mostly) neutral human behavior. Having sex, eating food, and grievous bodily injuries are, shockingly, not the same thing (hence why juxtaposing/connecting the concepts to create new meaning is the way you make it work!) You can't even write variations on Sex Itself interchangeably, sex is not all the same, sometimes it's boring and routine, sometimes it's affectionate and emotional, sometimes it's self harming and ugly. Much less writing every act of human bodily sensation interchangeably. This will not make your writing better but instead lead you to crafting the most garbage sentences known to man. Tread carefully.

how to manifest faster⋆.ೃ࿔*:･🎀

i just wanna preface this by saying that if u have the assumption that manifestation in general is a fast process then thats what it'll be, duh cuz its the law of ASSUMPTION.

although manifestation is instant, a lot of ppl tend to have the belief that there is a "lag" or an inconsistency in the 3D which is simply not true bcuz manifestation is instant. for the 3D to catch up to ur 4D in a timely fashion you should SATURATE.

WHY DOES THIS WORK ;

the brain naturally learns through repetition. through repetition, new neural pathways are formed and new beliefs are solidified. thats why saturation gets u what u want FASTER.

you can saturate through scripting, affirming like a robot WHATEVER u like but just through consistent saturation u can get what u want quicker.

HOW TO CORRECT UR LIMITING BELIEF ;

to address and correct limiting beliefs, simply affirm in the opposite and consistently redirect ur thoughts when u start to think limiting or opposing thoughts. keeping a strict mental diet does the trick.
