I’m sure that you read a thousand articles and blog posts about body confidence and self love. I also know that it all looks so good in theory but nobody mentions that it’s really hard in the practice. It’s easy to give advice and mean well, I did that myself as well, but we are all at a different stages of our body confidence and self love journey which makes it hard to apply does advice's personally. Words are great for encouragement and motivation but the action is what makes the biggest change. I don’t want to just tell you to love your body as I’m sure that you want to but somehow you got lost along the way. I want you to ask yourself these questions and maybe they'll help you to get back on track again.

Something I noticed with myself and people around me is how impatient we are with even the little things we do in life. It’s like there is this bug in our brains telling us that we should get things right here and right now and if it doesn’t happen we feel annoyed and displeased. Who should we blame this for? Some say that it’s a millennial thing and that we can’t do anything about it while others say that it’s the bad environment we are put in. Knowing the reason is great for solving the problem but stopping at just that is pointless. We can find a reason and a cure for a disease but if we don’t actually start to use that cure it’s like it doesn’t even exists.

I’m sure that at least once in your life at the end of the day you asked yourself: “What did I actually do today?” Well that’s probably because you haven’t done anything meaningful or at least not enough of those kind of things to say that you had an amazing day. It seems like days pass quicker and quicker as it is but with social media it’s easy for a whole Summer to pass by without you doing anything or noticing it when the leaves start to fall. Just because you are a homebody and choose staying at home over crazy summer parties doesn’t mean that you can’t have as much fun. You just need to find them at different places.

We live in a world where at times we are asked or supposed to be something we are not. We can feel like we need to act, talk, feel and believe differently. It may be directly referred to you or you can feel this way because of the social media and the surrounding you are in. It’s not easy when the image of you who others think you should be and the real you are in conflict. This is definitely harder when you are a teenager and you are still not quite sure who the real you are. It’s easy to get influenced by the wrong people. So how to stay true to yourself?
