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!
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!
loving yourself isn’t going to be easy. although I have recovered from self harm, I still struggle every day with treating myself kindly. but everyday we get ourselves out of bed, make that phone call we’re scared of, go in the shower…that is self love. that is a moment of care and love for ourselves and it will all add up in time. do what you can. don’t be so hard on yourself.
Click here to support Robert’s Top Surgery Fund organised by Robert Hansford
My gorgeous boyfriend is raising money for him to get top surgery as he has been waiting on the NHS waiting list for over 2 ½ years now. He is told it could be 3 years before he actually gets surgery but with going private it can be as little as four weeks waiting. Although, it is £6000. It would be greatly appreciated if you could donate something so he can start living his life. If you can’t donate, no worries, just sharing this would be great! Thank you so much ❤️
“Have a seat. Stretch out your legs. Close your eyes and ears. I shall say nothing for five minutes so you can think about Beethoven’s Fifth Symphony. See, and this will be more perfect still, if you manage not to think in words, but rather create a state of feeling. See if you can halt the whole whirlwind and clear a space for the Fifth Symphony. It is so beautiful.
Only thus will you have it, through silence. Understand! If I perform it for you, it will fade away, note by note. As soon as the first one is sounded, it will no longer exist. And after the second, the harmony will no longer echo. And the beginning will be the prelude to the end, as in all things. If I perform it you will hear music and that alone. Whereas there is a way to keep it paused and eternal, each note like a statue inside you.
Do not perform it, that is what you must do. Do not listen to it and you shall possess it. Do not love and you shall have love inside you. Do not smoke your cigarette and you shall have a lit cigarette inside you. Do not listen to Beethoven’s Fifth Symphony and it will never end for you.”Clarice Lispector, ‘Letters to Hermengardo’ (trans. Katrina Dodson)
Scooped
And I’m scooped. My project was published in another organism yesterday. Fuck me.
Just want to add that I’ve been working really hard to finish some experiments and we are beginning to write our manuscript now. Sometimes these things work out.
Be fucking definitive.

So I got his amazing idea, that from now on, under every picture you will be able to find a motivational, positive or inspirational quote.
I hope that when you’re feeling down or maybe feeling like giving up, after reading some of these quotes, your spirit will jump back up and it will bring back your determination, because trust me, you CAN do it!
The original aim of this blog was to post pictures that will motivate and inspire people who are going through the process of getting fit and losing weight so I hope that along with these quotes, you will feel more inspired and determined to achieve your goal and get your dream body!
Thank you for all the support on this website so far! Love y’all and I wish you all the best of luck on your journey to happiness xxx
P.S. IF YOU ARE PROUD OF YOUR ACHIEVEMENTS SO FAR FEEL FREE TO SEND US YOUR “BEFORE AND AFTER” PICTURES SO THAT WE CAN POST THEM AND SHOW OTHERS THAT THEY TOO CAN ACHIEVE THEIR GOAL IF THEY’RE DETERMINED! THANK YOUUU xxx
10 Positive Ways Youtube Changed People’s Lives
Btw I’m pro-quitting. This is a quitting-positive space. If you’re doing something and you decide “I don’t like this” or “I don’t want to do this” then you should quit. Quitting is awesome. Grinding only works in video james.
I quit all the time. It’s great.
Embrace the power of “Y’know what? Fuck this” and see how it can improve your life
my mom says she’s not a hugger. but when i put my arms around her on a gloomy day or after bad news she’s the last to let go.
my dad says he doesn’t want gifts on his birthday, but i see the way his face light up when i get him a card with a nice message and a box full of chocolate anyway. he’s just a kid inside, still. it makes him giddy.
my brother never says i love you. but when i tell him “i just need to finish the dishes before i vacuum!” he wordlessly goes to vacuum the entire house before i can, and if he sees me struggle with a wrapper or a jar or a bottle he mutters ‘c’mere’ and opens it for me without even sparing me a glance.
the thing is, people love you quietly, and you love them quietly, and the air is buzzing with tiny but grand gestures & once you look for them, you find them everywhere. i think that’s really beautiful.
Let’s spread positivity!; Send me an ask about someone you love, admire, look up to, your friends, etc, and I’ll @ them for a small, happy and wholesome surprise!
