This is how I used to be... No more lying to myself... This is what I'm trying to get away from. And I feel confident that I'm out of it for now... So now a promise to myself to never return to that dark, lonely place. Oh... and I don't really know who Anais Nin is, although Jewel talked about her in a song... i should look that up...
She lacks confidence, she craves admiration insatiably. She lives on the reflections of herself in the eyes of others She does not care to be herself.
--Anais Nin
So... how I feel now...
Your self-confidence is directly connected to how much you feel you are making a difference in your world.
--Brian Tracy
Don't know who Brian Tracy is either. Never even heard of him... but... this is what you run into when you do random searches for motivational quotes, right?
Yes, I have gained alot of Confidence in myself and my decisions, and no, i will not be bogged down in how others perceive me any longer! I'm absolutely sick of it, even if it was unconscious most of the time. I love my life and I love the way I am, and I'm not going to let anybody take that away from me. *nods emphaticly* (don't really know if that's the right word or if it's spelled right, but I don't really care...)
