NARCISSUS; self-infatuation — a guide

“ Narcissistic, my god i love it “ – IVE, Love Dive

one thing us girls are told is to ‘love ourselves’, but how do you do that ? this is a starter guide to help you start on this ‘self love’ journey–

💋 be gentle, but strict with yourself ! sometimes, the voice in your head has to be your own big sis. working on/ practicing discipline will allow you to develop a kind of respect for yourself, which in turn, will help you be kinder to yourself when it comes to developing yourself as a person.

💋 ignore outside negative opinions ! the person sitting in the same room as you, their opinion doesn’t matter. why ? will they be there at your deathbed while you recollect your life choices ? ignore them, this is your life, and your path, your opinion matters more than anyone else's. be kinder to yourself please–

💋 shamelessly you ! show off the best parts of your personality to the world, we love it ! i like to see imperfect smiles and odd laughter, goofy actions that make onlookers go “wow, she may be weird, but if i had that confidence, i would do the same !” the biggest inspiration for me, has been random people who are being themselves so shamelessly, that they automatically gain my respect, be her !

💋 establish your style now ! a lot of us like to wait until we have accomplished something to show our true style. for example, many girls think “when i lose this much weight, i’ll start dressing the way i want !” stop that line of thinking. i get that using that as a reward system can be motivating, but it will also make you dissatisfied with your present self. presenting your style now, not only helps you understand what you like at a faster rate, but it will give the people around you plenty of time to get used to the real you (before you reach your goals).

💋 establish your mindset ! how do you think ? what’s your philosophy of the world around you ? understanding factors like that will help you with paving your future. follow opportunities (finding your desired career,desired friends, desired school, desired place to live, etc.) that support this mindset, THAT is the true key to happiness !

💋 enjoy the little things ! life has multiple ups and downs. when its good, its good, and when its bad, its bad. But focusing on every bad thing; thats dangerous and not worth your time. other women don’t learn this until they hit their thirties, lets listen and learn from them and enjoy the small things in life.

💋 release your positivity ! when you make people around you smile in your presence, it makes you happy as well. people will see you being so positive, that they will reflect more positivity back onto you like a mirror..

💋 have fun ! letting go every once in a while will give you motivation to continue. having fun will make you enjoy what life has to offer. No matter what position, what country, or what race you are, if you have even the slightest chance to chase the opportunity of fun, why decline ? the world is giving it to you for free !

don’t forget ! during every journey, patience will be your best friend. many of us have burnt bridges with ourselves that we want to rebuild, and luckily for us, we have all the time in the world to understand ourselves, give yourself some time and understanding, she deserves it–

loving yourself...

... doesn't just mean accepting yourself as you are.

it's more about accepting and loving who you are right now, while also caring about yourself enough to see if you can make things better for yourself.

self love is a journey, not a destination. keep going and keep loving yourself ✨

It’s not that you didn’t deserve my love.

You did.

I’ll never deny that.

But I deserved it more.

I deserved to be sat on the pedestal

With my name beaming in lights.

I deserved the extra time I so freely gave away.

I deserved the kind words, justifications and reasoning.

I deserved more than the abandonment you left me with.

love yourself babe , to the point where you are obsessed with yourself.

If you keep living with confidence, the rest of your life will unfold exactly as it is meant to. It won’t always be comfortable. Some will recognize your brave; others won’t. Some will understand and like you; others won’t. But the way others respond to your confidence is not your business. Your business is to stay loyal to you. That way, you will always know that those who do like and love you are really your people. You’ll never be forced to hide or act in order to keep people if you don’t hide or act to get them. To be brave is to forsake all others to be true to yourself. That is the vow of a confident girl.

If I can exist in this world in such a way that I am no longer lied to, but it requires navigating life alone, solitude is okay with me. I’d rather live what’s left of my life alone than ever be lied to again.

Sometimes, the fear won’t go away.

So you will just have to do it anyway, afraid.

You tried your hardest. I love you. Let yourself rest.

This is the law of attraction. In this struggle, when things are going good and you visualise good things happening , that's easy. What's not easy is to do is when things are going bad and you're visualising the good stuff. And that's what I was able to do.

I used to think respect is something you need to earn.

But earning respect based on what? Other people's judgement? IDK... It's so ambiguous.

Respect is not earned. It's not something you can demand based on what you like or not like about others. It's not something you might or not show. It's something statutory. It needs to be done.

It doesn't matter if others disrespect you. Yes, you are allowed to walk away. You are allowed to express yourself, to show you don't like to be disrespected. To ask for respect. But never to beg for it. And in every scene, being disrespectful, must never be on your mind.

Respect is not earned. Is given. Freely.

Respect is not earned. Is something we demonstrate. Because we're civilized.

And because it says a lot about you and the kind of person you are.

Being disrespectful says you're not mature enough. Says you're petty, childish. Vengeful. Entitled, frivolous, inconsistent, judgemental. And toxic. Show respect. Even if they don't show it to you.

Respect is not something you can apply values, conditions or beliefs.

You're not better human being because you are doing the bare minimum.

Adding conditionals to the concept means respect is something that can change anytime and make others feel unworthy. With little to no value at all, merely based on values that can and will change from person to person. And that's not the way it works.

Respect it's a human right. It's a constant, not a variable. You can change everything, except this. Respect others just because they exist. Not because you like them or because they agree with your way of thinking.

Learn the difference.

And lastly...
