Rats vs Mice
(To be clear, this is not an anti-mouse post. Small cute animals should be allowed to be a little fucked up.)
Truth is the glow up most of you are looking for is called decentering everyone else (especially men) and centering yourself.
'I don't do it for them I do it for me' okay then why do you only use your best cutlery for visitors. Why do you only use your best perfume and dress when going out with friends?? Only wear your cute lingerie for that boy/girl?? Whyyy do you have to bring up your future plans 169669 times to people you know are not listening and will invalidate you? In fact unless they're investing in them why are you telling anyone your future plans at all?? Why did you wear all that make up just to take pics and post just to delete because they didn't get enough likes or Mr iliveinmynonsbasemateandimanincel said you're a 4 on a good day?? Why does that matter?? Why is it important to you that everyone knows you had an A and are moving out next month?? If you don't do it for them why are you so desperate to show them???
Decenter people from your life and make yourself the center of gravity, the axis by which your universe spins. Until you learn to think 'do I like them? Am I impressed by them? Do they add value to me????' Over 'do they like me?? Did my 25 detailed year plan for the future make me cool to them?? Am I feminine enough for him??' You haven't had a glow up.
I is the word you need. Me, myself, I. You'd rather be a narcissist than a people pleaser. I said what i said. Rather be a loner than a omg let me bend over so they have a flat surface when they walk on me kind of girl. Babe your mom doesn't care that your skin looks better, she hasn't for the past 21 years she won't now. That boy cares how fast your legs go open he has no idea what types of eyeliner exists. Those girls at school genuinely only care about your existence when they gossip. And EVEN ON THE BRIGHT SIDE, say, your dad really does care you had an A. So??? So your friends really liked your outfit. That's cool, I won't take anything from that, it's great. It's just, approval should be a SIDE EFFECT that means almost nothing past six seconds of seterotonin spike, not the driving force.
Positive feedback is the same level of destructive as negative feedback, opinions and validations shouldn't be the center.
The ultimate glow up is damn I deserve those pretty mugs and to smell like Dior every day and look hot every occasion and I deserve to stay in in my pj's regardless if the president is visiting and do I like them?? Who cares if they like me, do I like them??

Its difficult fully closing doors you wished would have something different behind them if you just waited long enough.
lets hear it for transgenderism and faggotry. can I get a round of applause for transgenderism and faggotry
Why appeal to everyone, when you can simply appeal to yourself.
Not everything is justifiable. I do not need to cite 15 sources so the general public can deem me rational. I will not defend actions that don’t make sense to others if it makes sense to me. Sometimes it’s a vibe or a divine message but for sure it’s my choice and opinion.
Reminder that boycotting DOES work, there is historic proof! Don't let anyone discourage you otherwise!
The BDS movement uses the historically successful method of targeted boycotts inspired by the South African anti-apartheid movement, the US Civil Rights movement, the Indian anti-colonial struggle, among others worldwide.
We must strategically focus on a relatively smaller number of carefully selected companies and products for maximum impact. Companies that play a clear and direct role in Israel’s crimes and where there is real potential for winning, as was the case with, among others, G4S, Veolia, Orange, Ben & Jerry’s and Pillsbury. Compelling such huge, complicit companies, through strategic and context-sensitive boycott and divestment campaigns, to end their complicity in Israeli apartheid and war crimes against Palestinians sends a very powerful message to hundreds of other complicit companies that “your time will come, so get out before it’s too late!”
May every single blog that touts self improvement but posts mean shit about never making progress never know peace.
So many of yall will couch it in “i post it for me”. Quite literally learn to shut the fuck up.
