Do You Know What's Worth Living For?

Be kind to yourself. Stop telling yourself that whatever you are struggling with “should” be easy. If something is hard for you, it is hard for you. There are probably Reasons, though those may just be how you are wired. Acknowledge these things. When you finish something hard, be proud! Celebrate a little.

And really, just stop saying “should” to yourself about your thoughts and feelings in any context. You feel how you feel. The things in your head are the things in your head. You can’t change either directly through sheer force of will. You can only change what you do. Stop beating yourself up for who and what you are right now–it isn’t productive. Focus on moving forward.

You shouldn’t ever have to change who you are for the sake of pleasing someone else. You don’t owe comfort or conformity or being attractive to anyone. If someone has an issue with who you are or the way you present yourself, that’s their problem, not yours. You don’t have to internalize other people’s judgement. It isn’t easy. In fact, it’s probably one of the most difficult things any of us will try to do. But it’s so important. You don’t live your life for other people. You need to do what feels right to you. And more than anything, you need to make your happiness a priority.
