enforcing boundaries

in a perfect world, one would never have to repeatedly tap the sign about people continuing to cross boundaries and act disrespectful. but we don’t live in a perfect world, people will repeatedly cross boundaries that you have drawn, continue to push your buttons and test you.

the only person who can make sure that your boundaries are not crossed, is you. you can say what your boundaries are, such as by having a “do not interact” or a dni on your account. but realistically, that doesn’t stop people from interacting with you, they don’t care, they didn’t read your long list of boundaries, or they didn’t see it. some harmlessly interacting and others out malicious intent. and regardless of why they do it, it affects you negatively.

posting about how they cross your boundaries may get the attention and sympathy from others with similar or the same boundaries, but that’s all you’re doing. fishing for sympathy.

the best, and healthiest, way to deal with these boundaries being crossed online is to block their account, or accounts in some cases, and say absolutely nothing. making a post gives these people attention, especially if you share their username. people who wants to help, wants to make things worse, just wants to troll those people will all just make things worse for you.

having a dni or a visible boundary line does minimise any concerns you may have about one not knowing your boundaries. but it’s not necessarily important if it’s a hard boundary, you, after all, are not required to tell anyone you’re not close to a reason for why you unfollowed or blocked them. if they believe they deserve that, it is merely their own insecurities that they need to work on.

when people online are crossing your boundaries, all you need to do is block them. if you need to, close messages as a whole or close the anon asks. do not engage with them, as that will only cause more to yourself. do not post about them. do not drag the entire internet into the drama. do not send those people anon messages, especially many of them that can end up being incriminating in any way. do not continue to stir the drama. just, block. that is the only thing that you need to do in order to deal with people who have disrespected your boundaries online.

in person, stop talking to them. you do not owe anyone anything when they cross your boundaries. if that is a little unsafe, tell a trusted adult, tell the police, get a restraining order. do not get into a physical altercation. do not yell at them. do not have a screeching meltdown. basically do nothing that incriminates yourself or just makes matters worse for you.

if you are closer to this person emotionally, cause they’re a close friend or even a partner, in this case, you are required to talk to them. but you are not required to take their nonsense or excuses. if you tell them that their (for example) “joke” about your weight was hurtful, and they tell you to lighten up. take it as a warning that they will not respect you and tell them that you may have to end the relationship. that you will not have a partner or friend who disrespects you.

toxic people don’t like it when people have boundaries that they enforce because it means that those people aren’t able to be pushed around or manipulated. stand up for your boundaries. stop giving those who are toxic the right to cause you more harm, giving them attention that they want from you, and giving them your precious time and energy. it is not easy to demand that people respect your boundaries, but it is even harder still to have your boundaries continuously crossed.

the importance of not caring

it is really easy for me to say that one shouldn’t care about perfection. that when making an aesthetic journal, you shouldn’t care to the point of damaging your mental health. that when trying something new, you shouldn’t care about being perfect.

many of us in the self care community have seen all these beautiful journals that are just absolutely the pinnacle of ‘aesthetic.’ and many of us have also maybe even tried to create one ourselves or dreamed about it in some way. yet, in the end, many have came to the conclusion that they’re flawed because they can’t make those look as nice. or that they never have time to make nearly enough. or that they just feel burnt out all the time after making them.

and that is okay, those feelings are valid. bullet journals, or bujos within that community, are beautiful. but it’s also true that those are a lot of work. they take some money to buy the books, to print all these pictures, to even buy the stickers and washi tapes. if you have these bujos and don’t feel stressed, then by no means is this an attack to you. i’m glad that you found something that brings you joy, i wish you the best of luck and continued happiness with these hobby.

and if you feel that these journals take a lot of work and energy, then don’t make them. it’s okay if your journals don’t look like these. they are beautiful, but not necessary if they do not work for you. you should not strive for perfection with something that does not bring you joy. it’s okay that you love the appearance of them but they don’t work for you. it doesn’t make you flawed or that you are completely incapable of making systems that will work for you.

i use simple paper to write my thoughts down. i sometimes even merely use my journal to write my to-do list down. nothing as nice as these bujos. but a system that is simple and works for me. sometimes i use stickers from my fandoms to decorate the journals, such as the reverse: 1999 ones that i may have totally downloaded from the official account. i found a basic, blank calandra from canva the beginning of the year filled with dates that i would like to remember. the page i write my journal in is just as simple, the date in the corner and then whatever i need to fill in the space. sometimes i write a lot. sometimes i write a little. they are nothing fancy, but it is the system that works for me.

when you try a new hobby, very few people will be good the first time they do it. i cross stitch, i have since i was a little kid. the first time i did a simple pattern, one of those project kits, it took me a whole week to do it. i made many mistakes. the floss knotted more times than i could count and my grandmother had to help me in points. her stitches were consistently beautiful while mine was at times too tight or sometimes too loose. but, that is what makes that silly little kit perfect. it is perfect, because it was not made perfect. it was filled with mistakes from a learner. my next kit looked better, but it still had mistakes. even projects that i have done recently in my twenties, almost twenty years since i began with this hobby is filled with mistakes.

never give up on things because you weren’t perfect. even a master can make mistakes with those. just keep trying. just keep learning. just keep having fun. because that is more important for a hobby than perfection. draw because you like it, not because you are great. sew because you want to make yourself something to enjoy, not because you must be as good as a professional. bake because you want to eat a delicious sweet treat, not because you expect to be on the next cooking show competing for first. frost a cake and make it look bad. make the stitches too tight. mistake salt for sugar. drop a bag of flour all over the place.

it doesn’t matter what mistakes you made. it doesn’t matter what mistakes you thought you made. make them. and reveal in the knowledge that by being imperfect, that you are amazing.

stop caring about whether you are this great artist making the most aesthetic bujos. it doesn’t matter how beautiful they are or how many likes you get on social media if you’re all burnt out or that it doesn’t work for you. stop caring that when you start up some new hobby whether you’re good or not. you will make mistakes learning something new. just make those mistakes and bloom.

setting boundaries

it is important for yourself and those around you to set boundaries. it is uncomfortable, people feel pressured by conflict and are often too afraid to confront those who are pushing those boundaries, be it an individual who is intentionally or unintentionally doing so.

people often choose to avoid confrontation because they are afraid that they may sound mean when doing so. but, without knowing it, by waiting to tell people they are really just increasing the chances of them saying or doing something far more mean in the future.

take for example that someone often makes ‘jokes’ to you that you are simply not comfortable with, it doesn’t have to be any serious joke or anything of dark humor. if it makes you uncomfortable, then telling that person to stop as soon as possible is the best way to protect yourself, your emotions, and your relationship with that individual.

if you choose to allow this person to continue to make jokes which makes you uncomfortable, you may without knowing, begin to form resentment. you may even begin to feel connected to arguments such as “how can you not see that it makes me uncomfortable?” you begin to become angry or even distant with that person.

finally, there comes a day that you either snap at them, all your anger, resentment and discomfort boiling over. or you snap at someone else who didn’t hurt you for as long, but was unfortunately the person to be the one to make you finally break. or they confront you directly noticing your change in behavior.

you tell them that they made you uncomfortable. maybe even asking “why didn’t you tell me?” and here comes that response. “you should have seen that i wasn’t comfortable… you should have known… you… you… you…” the other person couldn’t have known what you were thinking. they can only know what is said.

now, this is a normal breaking of the boundary. a boundary that was allowed to be crossed by the person who needed to erect that wall. there are also many examples of boundaries that need to be set that could be more or less unhealthy. some can be spoilers, certain topics, and even people. if you dislike having things spoiled, tell people. certain topics make you uncomfortable, say it. does being near certain people make you uncomfortable? let your friends know. those people, if they are a good friend, would understand without argument.

there are times where the other person is toxic or unhealthy and it’s harder to draw the line in the sand, to set those much needed boundaries. in these situations, tell the person directly, like, “please stop making those jokes around me, it makes me uncomfortable and i don’t like them.” when they do the inevitable thing of making those jokes, go away from them. make the punishment as equal to the boundary that was crossed. if someone continues to touch you, such as hugging you or putting their hand on your shoulder, make it be clear and loud that you don’t like that. and sometimes the healthiest boundaries to have are to not allow someone in your life entirely. that the best thing for yourself is to let that person go.

it is also important to realize that setting boundaries can be hard. even for the best of people. what is the line of setting boundaries and being toxic yourself with making people walk on eggshells? it’s different for everyone, both the recipient and the person setting those boundaries. and many people who are toxic will find that any boundaries are problematic. it’s okay to let those people go. having boundaries is important.

confidence guide for awkward girls 💫

LEARN TO SHUT UP. this is the first advice because it is probably the most important one, but the one that took me the longest to comprehend and master. girl, literally just shutting the fuck up does wonders. most of the times I was embarrassed out of my mind was coz I said something completely avoidable, only because I believed that being quiet was either rude or more awkward than whatever I rambled at that moment. bzzt, WRONG! being quiet means first of all being non-reactive, which gives you time to really reflect on what's being said and whether or not it even requires a response, and guess what; like 80% of the time, it does not. you are allowed to not respond, nod along, go "hmm" or "oh!" and leave it at that.

LEARN TO "FAKE" SMILE. this may seem controversial but it helps me so much. I've always been accused of looking mean, bitchy or just too serious, especially since I started to shut the fuck up (see previous item). and I am guilty as charged: I do have a RBF and when I am focused my eyebrow goes ò_o and I look judgemental and almost evil, and when I tried to balance it out by being funny or witty, it just came off even more awkward. the solution? I've started practicing a fake smile in front of the mirror when I was about 13 years old until I got the muscle memory of it so perfectly that now it's my response to nearly everything that I don't want/can't respond to. throwing an easy smile into a conversation will make you seem relaxed and in control even if you're bubbling anxious inside, and people will feel more at ease with you. also: learn to be generous with compliments, and try to make them your auto-response as well!

STOP COMPARING YOURSELF. comparison is the mark of insecurity and envy, and it's one of the ugliest and most useless habits you can have. yes, useless: what benefit do you get from comparing your face and body and circumstances to somebody else's? and please don't pretend you're getting "inspiration" from them. listen, you are your own lane. you are your entire universe. there is no other life to be lived, no other body to embody. this is it. these are the cards you were dealt with. the longer you try to peak into somebody else's cards, the longer you'll be ignoring yourself and neglecting your game. abandon ideas such as comparison, imitation or judgement towards others. confidence starts and ends with focusing on yourself.

LEARN TO CUT PEOPLE OFF. accumulating people in your life like they're pokémon is gonna be your downfall, because it's obvious not everyone can stay. imagine if a growing tree held onto all its leaves and branches, even the ones in obvious decay, how ugly and weak that tree would be, how much energy those dying parts would steal from the new ones in need of flourishing. it's the same with relationships. when someone disrespects you, hurts you, or simply doesn't align with you anymore, and you find excuses to keep this person around, what you're doing is betraying yourself, and how are you gonna have confidence in someone who betrays you? learn to cut people off or to simply let them go, and watch yourself become lighter and brighter.

QUIT BEING A BITCH. something people don't seem to understand is that the rude, conceited, mean girl persona is always revealed to be a small, petty and insecure rat on the inside. I've wasted years of potential connections trying to emulate the Blair Waldorf-y, Regina George-y vibes, trying to balance out my awkwardness with what I thought was their fierceness, because I was missing the whole point that their confident selves were lies. no girl or woman who is confident in herself spends any amount of time being a bitch, scheming to take people down, minding everyone else's business to make sure she stays on top. true confident people are kind even in the face of rudeness, they glow in shadows; their strength lies in tenderness. the sooner you give this mean girl show up, the better.

ABANDON YOUR NEED FOR APPROVAL AND COMPREHENSION FROM OTHERS. seeking approval is a very obvious trap but seeking comprehension is also dangerous, because the second people start doubting or questioning you – which is always going to happen when you decide to make a change of habits, traits, lifestyle etc – and you decide to explain yourself, you're accepting the premise that what you're doing is incomprehensible. if you're truly sure of yourself, there will be no need to assure others of yourself. if your peers or strangers don't understand it, so what? that's their enigma to sort out. respond to yourself and yourself only. if you understand and approve yourself, that's all you need, period. live for your damn self.

GOOD LUCK, LITTLE STARS 💫

communication tips : polarized conversation

so i had found this podcast, “how to fix our polarized conversations (with robb willer)” on the ”how to be a better human” podcast. (spotify link) this podcast was very well articulated and i wanted to share this with everyone here.

to give some information, robb is a professor of sociology, psychology and organizational behavior at standford university. he studies the role of morality in politics. his research shows how moral values, typically a source of ideological division, can also be used to bring people together. his political research has investigated various topics, including economic inequality, racial prejudice, masculine overcompensation and americans’ views of climate change. willer’s writings has appeared in the new york times and the washington post, including his op-eds “the secret to political persuasion” and “is the environment a moral cause?” willer received a ph.d from cornell university and a ba from the university of iowa. before becoming a professor, he worked as a dishwasher, construction worker, mover, line cook, and union organizer. (stolen from spotify’s description.)

while this is written discussing politics, as it was the theme of the podcast, this ultimately can be interpreted to describe any major discussion that is polarized, such as fandom discourse about what is and isn’t acceptable to write.

it is possible to have a discussions with people who disagree with major issues. the main problem is that arguments are put together in ways that are convincing to us, which is not useful since we are already convinced. so willer recommends moral reframing.

what is moral reframing?

moral reframing, as defined by willer is, articulating a political position you’re advocating for in terms of not your own values, but the moral values of the audience, or person, that you’re communicating with. for instance, liberals are often drawn to arguments regarding equality, fairness and justice (to name a few) while a conservatives are more likely to respond favorably to religious values, patriotism, and tradition (to name a few.)

so what does this ultimately mean for me?

if you wish to communicate effectively, connect the policy to their preexisting moral values. you by no means are going to sway someone from the other view to change their entire life view, but you can make them understand and even change their idea on an opinion. such as the example from the podcast, by reframing homosexual marriage as “gay people are patriotic, they want to live like everyone else and are proud americans” or arguing for environment protection as defending the sanctity of the earth, you are more likely to sway someone to supporting your beliefs (or end goals.)

polarization is very common given the difference in socioeconomic factors, geographical factors, and other variables. it is okay that people agree to the same end goal but for different reasons. it is important to be respectful to these differences and be empathetic to others.

empathy, as defined my webster means, the action of understanding, being aware of, being sensitive to, and vicariously experiencing the feelings, thoughts, and experience of another. it does not mean that you agree with the other person.

willer recommends listening to the people when they talk, not only will understand what arguments to use to sway their opinion but it gives respect to the other person making them more likely to give you the same respect.

personalizing it to your own personal reasons, not a ‘he said-she said’ or ‘friend of a friend.’ make it your own personal tale. and allow some of your arguments to be subjective language rather than authoritative, use “i think” or “i feel.” it is also recommended to allow yourself to agree with the other person. such as “i agree with you that it is important to give children great education,” after that, it makes it easier to connect with the other person.

as i said in the communication tips post “online communication” people will misinterpret what it is that you say and be unresponsive to. it is to be expected, just pick and choose your battles because sometimes it’s not worth the time that you will spend.

are you saying to have conversations with people who have ‘evil’ views?

so, willer himself does not give any groups of people to not talk to, it’s the podcaster who makes the argument to not talk to someone who has inherently prejudicial views that makes it unsafe to be near them. i absolutely agree that it can be very unsafe to be near someone who has inherently prejudicial views against another person, regardless of their status as minority or majority. it is extremely important to understand when it is important to not engage for your own safety and when someone merely disagrees with you.

it can be considered prejudicial to believe that white people can face discrimination, but by no means is it necessarily life threatening to engage with a conversation with such people. i will even argue that daryl davis, a r&b and blues musician actually convinced several ku klux klan members to leave and denounce the group. consider your safety first and foremost but it is still possible to engage with these people and change their minds.

it is also hard to engage in conversations with people when their sources are completely opposite, such as using cnn or fox news. it also makes it difficult when people exist within echo chambers. both of these make it harder to bridge the divide. if people are isolated from other beliefs, they are not being challenged but they are not also being allowed to see other perspectives that may be more convincing. it is also important that people have trust in the sources, this is why media literacy is so crucial in such conversations. a source can be accurate, but it’s bias can form a narrative that makes it seem more untrustworthy.

the word choices are important, if you would like to discuss immigration using terms like “illegal aliens” is less likely to sway a liberal to a term choice of “undocumented worker.”

no matter what, it is vital to watch for fallacies. ad hominem attack, meaning an insult to the other person or group, is less likely to convince that person or group to support your cause.

but why does it matter? if someone is stupid (or insert another insult,) i have the right to tell them.

it matters because are not responsive to being degraded or insulted in serious conversations. even people with a degradation kink may find you less convincing in a political discussion when you throw around insults at people you dislike. even if people from your political view give you likes and positive feedback, you did nothing to bridge the divide or change opinions.

and if that argument misses, read back what you wrote. would you be convinced by what you said if someone told you those same things (or things similar but in response to political division?) the likely answer is no, but, should you be the oddball, i guess i should remind you that empathy is vital in conversations with others.

can we go over the important parts one more time?

so, in conclusion, there are ways to bridge the growing polarization that we are facing in the modern world. in order to convince others to support what you do, it is best to use moral reframing. moral reframing is using the other person/group’s beliefs to convince them or persuade them to your opinions.

you will have different reasons to the same outcome, but that is okay. it is important to use empathy and give respect to those who have different values and opinions than you. it is also important to not insult or disrespect others intentionally as that does little to persuade.

however it is also important to realize that there will be people who intentionally misunderstand you or refuse to meet you in the middle. it is okay to not engage with those people and people who are a huge threat to your safety. just as it is not okay for you to insult others, know that it is not okay to be subjected to insults and hate, so it’s fine to nope out of those conversations.

2025 : #1 be disciplined

Motivation feels amazing, doesn’t it? It’s like a spark—a burst of energy that pushes you forward. But what happens when the spark fades? That’s where discipline steps in. It’s the routine you build, the habits you cultivate, and the consistency you stick to even on days you don’t feel like it.

So, instead of waiting to feel ready, discipline says, ‘Let’s go, regardless.’ It’s the engine that turns dreams into reality.

"Ask urself right now: What’s one thing I can commit to daily in 2025? Write it down. Small steps lead to giant leaps."

1.Building Your Disciplined

How do u stay disciplined? Start with these three small steps:

✒️.Growth is not supposed to feel good. You’re going to hate it. You’ll feel like quitting more times than you can count. That’s normal. Growth is built in the moments where you want to give up but don’t.

1. Create Clear Goals: Be specific. Instead of saying, ‘I’ll study more,’ say, ‘I’ll study history for 30 minutes every evening.’ BUY A SMALL NOTEBOOK AND WRITE ALL UR GOALS WITH SMALLER ONE TO BE MORE PRODUCTIVE

2. Track Progress: Whether it’s journaling or using an app, tracking helps you stay accountable.

3.Master Your Mindset: Stop waiting to "feel motivated." Understand that motivation is fleeting, but discipline is reliable. Every time your brain tells you to quit, remind yourself: your emotions don’t run the show—your goals do.

2.Excuses Are Lies

Excuses are lies you’ve sold yourself to stay comfortable. 'I’m too tired.' Lie. 'I don’t have time.' Lie. 'I’m just not motivated.' Biggest lie of all.

Here’s the truth: You’re scared. Scared of failure, scared of discomfort, scared of how much effort it takes to change. But let me tell you something: Fear is temporary. Regret is forever. Which one do you want to live with?

No more excuses. You don’t need more time. You need more discipline. You don’t need motivation. You need action. Stop talking about what you want and start doing the work to get it. Right now.

3.look at yourself in the mirror

Look yourself in the mirror tonight and ask: Am I proud of the choices I made today? If the answer is no, fix it tomorrow. And if the answer is still no, fix it the next day. Don’t let yourself off the hook.

2025 isn’t your year unless you make it your year. Stop expecting change to happen to you. You are the change. Get out of your head, get off the couch, and get to work. The only thing standing between you and the life you want is your own laziness. Crush it.

4.Action Plan for a Disciplined Life

Stop acting like you’re doing enough when you know you’re not. If you want that dream college, that perfect GPA, or that career you keep fantasizing about, you need to stop wasting time and follow a real plan. Get up the second your alarm goes off—no snooze, no excuses. Tackle the hardest, most uncomfortable task first thing in the morning because procrastination is for quitters. Create a non-negotiable schedule and stick to it like your life depends on it, because it does. Eliminate every distraction: delete the apps, unfollow the nonsense, and stop treating your phone like your best friend. Hold yourself accountable—write down your progress every day. If you didn’t do anything to move forward, face the fact that you’re the problem. Plan your next day before you sleep, so you wake up ready to win, not wander. And for the love of everything you want in life, stop choosing comfort over progress. Your excuses won’t get you that GPA, that acceptance letter, or that dream job—but discipline will.

breaking this into chunks

1. Kill the Snooze Button: Get out of bed the moment your alarm goes off. No "just 5 more minutes." Those 5 minutes are the difference between starting strong and losing the day.

2. Start With the Hard Stuff: Tackle your most challenging task first thing in the day. Procrastination is your enemy—eat the frog and move on.

3. Create a Non-Negotiable Schedule: Block out specific times for studying, working out, or any critical task. Treat these blocks like appointments with your future self—don’t cancel.

4. Cut Out Time-Wasters: Delete apps you waste time on. Unfollow distractions. If you spend hours scrolling or binge-watching, you’re digging your own grave.

5. Build Accountability: Tell someone your goals and have them call you out when you slack. Better yet, make it public—you’ll hate embarrassing yourself in front of others.

6. Track Progress Daily: Write down everything you’ve done that day to move closer to your goals. If you haven’t done anything, face the hard truth: you’re slacking.

7. Plan Tomorrow Tonight: Before you go to bed, write out your next day’s schedule. If you wake up without a plan, you’ve already lost.

8. Say No to Comfort: Skip the cozy excuses. If it’s not pushing you closer to your goals, it’s holding you back.

Discipline is the foundation of every success story. It’s not about luck, talent, or fleeting motivation—it’s about showing up, doing the hard work, and making the right choices every single day. If you want to achieve your dreams, you need to stop waiting for the perfect moment and start building habits that get you closer to your goals. Cut the excuses, own your failures, and take control of your life. The road to greatness isn’t easy, but every sacrifice, every uncomfortable moment, and every disciplined action will take you one step closer to the future you deserve. You either make it happen, or you watch someone else do it. The choice is yours. The clock is not waiting for u !

a powerful reset for 2025

create a “no” list

write down things you’re absolutely saying no to in 2025, like overworking, toxic relationships or procrastinating and respect your boundaries.

unsubscribe from things that don’t add value

this goes from e-mails, streamings and services to beliefs, commitments, addictions, habits and everything that drain your energy and no longer makes sense to you.

set small, realistic goals

big and vague goals are harder to achieve. we all did at least once some megalomaniac goals that we didn’t achieved because they were too unrealistic to that moment. instead, set goals that you can achieve to fulfill your sense of accomplishment and actually accomplish something.

have a pre-reset day before 2025

disconnect from your phone for a couple hours and journal about what you’re leaving behind and what you’re welcoming in this new year. align with yourself and what you want and deserve. meditate about the vibe you want from now on.

give yourself permission to change

we often stay stuck in old versions of ourselves, so let this new year be the year you let go of outdated expectations you (or society) put into yourself. change your mind! take risks! start over!

redesign you bedroom

if you can, change up your bedroom (or any room you can/want) to create a space that feels fresh and motivating for the new year, like adding fairy lights, plants, move your bed and desk, create a functional corner to study/work. any small changes can make a big difference in how you feel at home.

prioritize! mental! health!

because a strong foundation in health, specially mental health in this era, is essential and boosts every other part of your life. try to live slower, don’t overconsume in social medias, don’t overshare, do therapy, take your meds/vitamins, journal about your feelings, have a trusting person you can always vent to and get help.

this post is long overdue. sending love to the people who are embarrassed to answer when a stranger/semi-stranger/acquaintance asks what you’ve been up to. the answer can feel awkward when you’re in a between stage in life. that’s okay. also, it’s okay to not be at the same place in life as others your age.
