#positive self talk
“After seven years of experiments, it was clear to us that the remarkable attribute of resilience in the face of defeat need not remain a mystery. It was not an inborn trait; it could be acquired.”
Martin Seligman, “Learned Optimism: How To Change Your Mind And Your Life”
You are beautifully and wonderfully made

Hickey that Reaction Junkie gave me this weekend because he’s my owner and can do anything he wants to me. Even if that thing is making me look like I’m dating a 14 year old boy :P
I’m also awesome because I’m super freaking adorable.
First of all, I’m adorable because of how I look. I’m short and fairly small, so a lot of people can push me around and even pick me up. I also have a cute face with a cute nose and I make cute little faces.
I’m also adorable because of the way I dress. I don’t put all of my outfits together with that goal in mind, but when I do, it works very, very well. I put together my delightful outfits where I match based on a theme, like rainbow unicorns, I wear my thigh high socks that hit just the right combo of cute and sexy, and, of course, I have my chucks, which make almost any outfit into an adorable one.
Finally, I’m adorable because of how I act. I tend to be shy and soft-spoken, which often translates as cute. I’m also an excellent cuddler and snuggler, and I love curling up basically in someone’s lap. Plus, there are the times when I’m being a puppy or a non-specified critter, which is just super fucking cute, especially when I put a tail in.
Yup, this is one adorable little feminist bitch.

You’re not lazy, you simply need to rest. You’re not stupid, you simply have gaps in your knowledge that can be filled. You’re not ugly, you simply have a wrong perception of your reflection. You’re not naive, you simply believe in the good in people and in the world. You’re not unlovable, you simply haven’t recognised your own worth yet. All of these negative thoughts you may have in fact disguise a positive truth - a truth that you have to learn to believe. You, my love, are simply wonderful the way you are.

Being in college I’ve learned how crucial self talk is. I just broke up with what I thought was a really nice guy. But I was hurting, and alone. My family and most friends were asleep. So I had to go breath by breath for a while because it just hurt. It’s okay if it hurts. You just gotta go take care of you. For me that was sitting in my car on a heated seat and crying for a bit. Self care takes on a lot of forms. Do what works
Instructions: Choosethree or four to say aloud. It’s okay if you do not agree with every single statement. Focus on the ones you do.
- “This is how it has to be right now.”
- “All my decisions have led up to right now.”
- “There is no use fighting the past.”
- “Fighting the past only blinds me in the present.”
- “The present moment is perfect just as it is.”
- “The present moment is the only moment over which I have control.”
- “It’s a waste of time and energy to fight what’s already happening.”
- “The present moment is fine, even if I don’t enjoy what is happening.”
- “This moment is exactly the way it should be, given what’s taken place before it.”
- “The present moment is a result of millions of other tiny decisions.”
