confidence

"Confidence is key."

Teenagers often lack confidence. This can be due to the constant pressure of "fitting in" with everyone around them and the latest trends that are discussed on social media. Teens are constantly trying to obtain the "ideal body image", even though said ideal body shape and size is not even set in stone. Clothes, shoes, and accessories are a whole other story. Teenagers are constantly feeling the need to spend top dollar for the latest "in" styles. Relationships also become more prominent at this age, which leads to worry of becoming attractive enough for someone of interest or even enough for a significant other. All of this can become overwhelming and can tend for people to lack confidence and feel as if they are not enough.

One should always feel worthy! Confidence leads to happiness, which then leads to you becoming the best you can possibly be! Here are some tips for gaining self-confidence and joy:

Removing negative people from your life is a major step in the right direction! This type of person will not only drain you emotionally and physically but will also bring down your confidence. Surrounding yourself with your loved ones, friends, and well-rounded people will bring positive vibes your way!

New hobbies can also bring a sense of relaxation and happiness. Pick up a new sport, interest, or skill to make use of your spare time. Also setting and working towards goals can help with self worth. Completing a goal will make you feel accomplished and proud of yourself!

Find what makes you feel happy and confident individually! This could include picking up on the new makeup trends or hairstyles. It could also be going to the gym more often to make you feel better physically and healthier. Making new friends and investing your time into new and better relationships will also help!

Recently, these types of tips have helped me regain and strengthen not only my happiness but also my confidence and I hope they can help you too! Everyone deserves to feel great! With confidence you can achieve anything!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
