5 Reasons You Need To Stop Feeling Inferior
The problem of people having low self-worth is huge.
They are everywhere. I see this as a parental problem. It is the core reason some act like dicks(to cover up), some go to bed depressed and some commit crimes.
It is a human tendency to underestimate oneself and overestimate others.
It is an inbuilt error of calculation.
This cannot be cured by consuming a bunch of motivational videos or quotes. But it can be dealt with in a more interesting and sustainable way.
#5 People Just Join You:
People just join you in whatever you do to yourself.
The way you treat yourselves does 2 things:
1. Changes the way you think about yourselves
2. Change the way others treat you
People have no clue about you. Give them the answer. You show them the way you should be treated and promptly let them know when they do it wrong.
It is high time that you realize you are the gatekeeper. Stop blaming it on others. They are not abusive, it's just that you are submissive.
#4 Everybody Is Flawed:
Stop comparing your life with someone else's on Instagram.
Social media is a skewed reality.
It's a modern problem and is huge. We are hyper-exposed to ‘successful’ people more than ever in history.
I don't understand why people feel the need to follow that famous person on the internet who does nothing but post bikini pictures with motivational captions.
There is a daily constant reminder that you have done nothing and your life ain’t special. Now that you see all those people who are always on vacation in perfect outfits and costly restaurants, you think there is something wrong with you.
No.
Consciously control your exposure. Mute.
That hottest girl you are jealous of is most probably the most insecure, superficial, dumb, and terrified of people not giving a fuck about her.
That charismatic and funny guy with the cheat code ‘fanny magnet’ you are envious of probably has all the fucked up habits that are ruining his life and his family.
Everybody has darkness. Just like you.
Some are just good at hiding them.
#3 Your Weirdness Is What Makes You ‘You’:
You are terrified of being rejected.
Dead scared of being seen as a weirdo. Though you may not want to admit it, you are always trying to fit in. That's the default.
You stop doing all your quirky things. You let that inner kid starve.
But.
You do not want to wait till you realize the magnitude of this mistake.
Not being yourselves is a suicide.
Say what you think.
Do what you want.
Never feel shameful about it.
Ever.
If being you makes your tribe disown you, it wasn't yours in the first place.
Find yours.
#2 Insecurities Are Real Strength:
I highly encourage you to take a pen and paper. Write about all your insecurities. Play with them. And change the narratives around them. It doesn't happen by accident. It needs work.
Never let people tell you how you should feel about yourself.
Those who view themselves as above their flaws are miles ahead of those born without any.

#1 You Are Not The Whole Point:
I'm not into practicing self-love or endorsing the same.
Self-love is just making a narcissist out of everybody.
You are not the whole point.
Stop making everything about yourself by constantly regurgitating about all the ways you are inferior to others and how your life sucks.
Jump out of your sphere and actually focus on others.
I know it’s cliche but nobody cares about you more than you do.
Stop being self-obsessed by staying sad and start doing something.
The world needs you more than you think. Does it care about, you thinking that you are short and your nose ain't cute? Fuck no.
It is waiting to see your contribution, not your complaints.
Life is already difficult and full of challenges.
Why on earth would you add to it?
Much love,
Subash.
