Hey squad! Today on Dear Young Creators we’re talking about originality and why it’s a part of your soul and why you should embrace that more unique side of yourself from your hairstyle to how you talk and the clothes you wear. Just be YOU!

miscatsquad:

Being creative means sometimes you’ll get competitive and start comparing yourself to others. It’s not healthy and sometimes causes you to burn out, stress and doubt your own creative abilities. 

A part of the process in learning to heal is to not only forgive the people who made you feel so competitive and bad about yourself and work, but to forgive yourself. 

Here’s a personal story. A few months ago I was extremely competitive, so much that I ended up burning myself out and stressing people I loved. I’m not a huge YouTuber, and I’m not a typical gamer either. My channel took a huge amount of time to get where I wanted it to be, becoming so many different things at once instead of focusing on one main goal. 

To be honest, it really bothered me (to the point of almost quitting) that so many newer girl gamers got so much recognition and support after only being on YouTube for a few months. They jumped on trend bandwagons and acted like every other girl gamer out there (oh heck you know how they act, let’s be real), considering themselves to be “original”.

Of course everyone has their own cup of tea, but to see them gain 1,000 of subscribers for even producing something that wasn’t even high quality, getting the amountof support they did hurt me so much. 

Was I wrong to think that way?Yes.Should I have let it bother me? No. The content I produce is high quality, taking days to complete with the team I have put together over the last few months. Am I proud of that? Yes. 

The advice in this video isn’t coming from someone who has that huge following, but does that matter? No. I’m still human, consider me a friend if you’d like. Numbers shouldn’t make me think any less of my content because I know I did my best and that looking at someone else’s work shouldn’t bother me. 

I’ve been able to connect with an amazing audience, have helped others and charities and have really made some awesome friends along the way. Today I still suffer from my competitive nature, but I’m beginning to forgive myself and others. It’s a beautiful feeling to have once you just wake up one day and say, “You know what, I just don’t care anymore about what others have. I’m me, and no one can do what I do and that’s that.”

Trust me, I’m still trying to better myself and I know it’s hard. I’ve been on both sides of the fence. So maybe one day you and I will both be better versions of ourselves. Let’s keep on doing our best and never give up.

Maybe being upside down will make you stop overworking yourself! Got a friend who overworks? Just send them this video to make them stop!

This is the best description I’ve heard for this method, I always thought it was bullshit because I never heard a description that actually explained how to do this other than “tap your head 20 times”.

I have anxiety-induced hissing, which sounds/feels different from sound-induced tinnitus (which I have also experience). Sound-based tinnitus actually sounds like you’re “hearing” something in your ears, whilst the hissing I have feels like it’s “inside my head”, if that makes sense. But this technique still helps!!

Here’s a visual I found because I couldn’t understand the instructions well

My ringing just went away for the first time in years. What is this blissful quiet.

wait wait i gotta try this, i don’t think i’ve had Actual Silence since i was like 5

no seriously, my life became so much better once i swapped all the self-deprecating jokes for “i love myself” jokes

i think it’s so easy to get caught up in hating yourself, even if it’s as a joke. at some point, you start to internalize what you’re saying because the self-deprecating jokes are just coming out so naturally and easily. at some point, you have to realize that you don’t want to – and you can’t – grow in an environment where you’re constantly making comments that belittle yourself. you have weaknesses, but you also have strengths. and i don’t know about you, but i’d much rather convince myself that i’m person worth love and attention than one not

As soon as I started responding to compliments with over-dramatic self-love I genuinely disliked myself less.

“Hey, really good job on that project this week.”

*hair flip as I speak like a fancy Victorian woman* Well, finally someone notices my talents and skill. 

“I like your outfit.”

Yes I look fantastic as fuck thank you for noticing. 

“You look nice today”

*faking coyness* WHO????? MEEEEE????? *places my hand over my heart and kicks my foot up in the air* Yes I know, thank you so much.  


Even when you mess up, it’s still funny and a little motivating to make jokes about how great you are doing. Every time I horribly mess up something at work I do a little chef’s kiss and imitate Gordon Ramsey giving compliments. “Well, that’s just fantastic, quite like that, really wonderful.” Everyone around you is much more likely to have a laugh than if you start saying stuff like “wow, I suck at everything I attempt, I’m the worst.”

What can you write in a journal for mental health?

Recently I was looking for some stickers and I found a tiny journal. I’m thinking of using it for mental health purposes.

These are the things I’ll write in it:

  • Quotes that I find very motivational
  • Moments from books that inspire me.
  • Reasons why I like myself
  • Reasons why others like me
  • How I have improved my life with tiny changes
  • Short plans on how to achieve certain goals or how to change things
  • Bucket lists~
  • Things that make me happy
  • Character analysis for characters that inspire me and what traits I want to adopt from them
  • Stuff that my friends said and they stuck with me over the years, motivational or just compliments
  • My favorite coping mechanisms
  • Compliments/encouraging words towards my person when I feel like giving up or when my self-esteem is down
