Confident Me

Self acception is one of the hardest battels we go through in life. Everyone has insecurities and there will always be a time where they bother you no matter how self accepting you are of yourself.

The worst thing to do to yourself is criticize yourself, I always tell people " Never put yourself down because people around you will think it's okay to do it as well". Self criticism is something that becomes a habit. If you do something wrong and hate yourself for it you will find that all your energy will be put towards hating yourself or making yourself feel bad about it for a long time which in turn will cause a domino effect and you will notice you hating yourself for every little thing you do wrong. Did you know, when you let yourself down you tend to stop trusting yourself and stop believing in yourself and that creates an obstacle in everyday life.

So the obvious question is how do I start accepting myself and become a more confident person? Well it's actually very easy, just start by not making big promises to yourself like promising yourself that you will loose 10kg's by the end of the month (when you know it's holidays and you going to be eating junk food and lazing around) or you promise yourself that you'll get 90% on the next math test when you got 60% last term (even though you studied a week before the test and go for tuition everyday), another thing to do is every morning look into the mirror and say this "I accept myself, I love myself, I forgive myself for the mistakes I've done and I will learn from them in future" and eventually you will start believing what you're saying, you'll start accepting yourself, being more confident and becoming truly happy with yourself. Remember don't wait for the world around you to give you permission to be yourself, just accept yourself and happiness will accept you.

"Practice accepting yourself just as you are. Then you will know what love is" - Paul Ferini

Happy Holidays

It's the holidays!
Happy Holidays to all my readers, hope you had a lovely thanksgiving and I hope you have a very merry Christmas and a happy new year :-)

So because it's the holidays I thought I'd talk about how I generally get overwhelmed when being around too many people for a long period of time. Firstly no I don't hate people (well generally) and no I'm not a strange weird being who sits in dark places and reflects on life and the choices I've made (although that sounds like a pretty awesome idea) but lets get back to the actual topic...

When I'm around a lot of people for a long period of time I get overwhelmed and a lot of the time snappy and irritable with the people around me so what I do (or try my best to do) is stop what I'm doing and breath (my brother and sister make fun of me all the time about doing this but it helps sooo judge away), I count to 10 and walk away from everyone to my room because it's quiet and I can be alone. I would like to admit that yes I'm an introvert (A term introduced by the psychologist Carl Jung to describe a person whose motives and actions are directed inward. Introverts tend to be preoccupied with their own thoughts and feelings and minimize their contact with other people.) and need time to myself to sort of "recharge", I normally chill in my room, read a book, listen to music or go on social media, oh and I also write blogs now #de-stress&unwind.  After that long process (which takes a few hours or a whole day for me) I normally feel better and can socialize again but an alternative method would be to go to sleep and when you get up you'll feel refreshed (but not me because I'm not really a morning person so I feel refreshed only after an hour of waking up but that's a topic for another blog)

Well anyway I hope this post helps you be more cheerful this holiday season or just helps you feel better when you feel overwhelmed, on that note I'll leave you with this quote
"No family is perfect, we argue, we fight, we even stop talking to each other at times. But in the end, family is family. The love will always be there" - Unknown
