How to Stop Being a Weak, Nerdy Victim and Start Being a Man
I've always had a temper. As a kid in elementary school, I would instigate fights with much tougher kids and then get the crap beat out of me. A lot. And I wasn't a tough kid myself. I was a skinny, wimpy, tea sandwich of a boy with thick glasses—perfect fodder for bullies or anyone else looking to make mincemeat out of someone. It's actually pretty funny to think about, decades later. Some scrawny weakling, intentionally starting some shit with a bigger, tougher kid, only to limp home with an even bigger chip on my shoulder, angry at the other kid for having the audacity to fight me. It's funny, but also kinda twisted. I'd start the fight for some perceived reason, get my clock cleaned, and then carry this anger around because people pick on me. It was the extreme end of playing the victim with a side of Ed Norton's self ass-kicking in Fight Club for good measure. I played this role for years. To be honest, I still do to an extent.

Jennifer VioletPublished 6 years ago in MotivationThese Are the Moments I’m Living For
Two years ago, I was a high school senior living in Lincoln, Nebraska, anxiously awaiting the day when I would receive my decision letters from all the universities I applied to. While this was such an exciting time, I felt stuck; stuck in the pattern of walking the same halls, going to the same places, and doing the same things. I had this deep longing for something new. For something to make me excited again. I was surrounded by incredible friends; however, I didn’t sense the same feeling of incompleteness in them that I did in myself.

Self-love is a big deal, it's something people don't usually talk about. It's a subject that people are kind of touchy about. People need to ask themselves, what does self-love mean to them? Or how do you define self-love?
Isabella (Mercy) WestergardPublished 6 years ago in MotivationWhy I Am Grateful for Teething Babies and Ear Cleaning - Manifestation & Law of Attraction Story
This is a story in which you will learn how to begin manifesting your truest desires right this minute. Before I begin this story, I want you to know a key behavior you must practice to allow your mind, body, and soul to be open to receiving that which you have always desired. This behavior will allow your mind, body, and soul to settle in a state of peacefulness and ease so that it is easier for you to mentally focus and attract your desires. You can start with this behavior right now! You do not need to purchase anything. You do not need to be a certain race, economic class, social class, or meet a specific guideline to begin manifesting your desires right now! This behavior is the act of being grateful. Even if you are currently living a life that you can't stand, you must think about something simple that you can be grateful for. For example, if you are currently not experiencing life in the perfect body shape that you want and desire, do not focus on that which you do not have yet. However, you must focus and then feel grateful for something you actually do have. Maybe it's a substantial home you live in, a special talent you have, or the career you have. Once you have at least one thing you can be grateful for, focus on the emotion you feel when you think of it. Do you feel happy, excited, or special? These emotions are very important to recognize because it is another essential tool you will use when manifesting your desires. I will write more articles that speak in-depth how to manifest, for beginners, how to use the Law of Attraction to gain into your life that which you want most.
Writer Geek 2222Published 6 years ago in MotivationAmerica's Horrifying Beauty Standards
I find America’s beauty standards absolutely horrifying. If you’re wondering why, just look around you! There are multiple examples walking around today. Have you heard the phrase, “Beauty is in the eye of the beholder?” Well, in today’s society, it has changed to, “Beauty is in the eye of who society as a whole perceives as beautiful.” It seems as if society decides who is beautiful and who is not beautiful. Society holds high expectations for men and women to be called beautiful or handsome.
Serena FixPublished 6 years ago in MotivationIs It a Crutch or a Tool?
Is it a crutch or a tool? Sometimes we find ourselves relying on things to help us accomplish tasks or goals. But do we really need to? If it is something that is helping make you better then it is a good tool that truly helps you, however if it is allowing us to be lazy, or not improve, or stagnate it is a crutch and needs to be discarded.

The bills keep dropping on the door mat, your car breaks down, your dog s!@#s on the carpet. These are just facts of life right?
John BrothertonPublished 6 years ago in MotivationAwakening
Too often we overlook our desires. We put off our dreams. We believe we have time. We postpone the things we've always wanted to do. We have doubts or simply don't have enough belief in ourselves. We weren't created to live a low-vibration life. Our body is our vehicle and we have to nourish it and attend to it the same way we would our mind, heart, and soul. Why stop there?
