(P.S. They may hate you for it, resent you for it, REJECT you for it.)
I will never understand women who don’t trust themselves. Like, what have you DONE (to yourself) that is SO despicable that you are untrustworthy… even to yourself.
To be clear, I am very SLOW to trust.
It is DEFINITELY a process for me.
And once it is broken, it’s likely never rebuilt to the level it was before… if i EVEN try to get there, which is highly unlikely.
So, I’m NOT an optimist or a pollyanna. At my core and TO my core… I am suspicious, observant, and I note ANY thing that doesn’t fit, doesn’t add up. (Which is HOW I can spot a phony… whether it’s phony numbers propped up by affiliate lists & “lifetime” numbers vs. REAL numbers or a person touting a lifestyle as “evidence of success” that they are definitely NOT paying for.) I am a realist, and trust is earned.
BUT… I can CERTAINLY trust myself.
I trust myself without reservation or hesitation. I BACK myself without reservation or hesitation.
This level of confidence is celebrated by others. BUT ONLY TO AN EXTENT. You see, if you hang around me long enough… you will notice:
❌ I don’t need your approval in order to do what I want to do.
❌ I don’t seek your agreement before I make a decision.
❌ I don’t argue with you to win you over to my side, because I am 100% OKAY standing — completely — alone.
❌ I don’t make any effort to secure your affirmation OR acceptance, because I have 100% affirmed and accepted myself.
And when a woman has NO vested interest in your applause, approval, acceptance or affirmation… EVEN the applause, approval, acceptance or affirmation of other woman…. well, people become resentful.
Angry.
Vengeful.
IRRITATED to their core.
How COULD she NOT do X?
Why WON’T she just do Y?
Why ISN’T she upset that I disagree with — or am disappointed in — her?
How could she just MOVE ON without my approval, or even… with my STATED disapproval? #gasp!
Look at her just going her own way…leaving us behind…
Hear me now,
if you are content to walk on a treadmill,
and insist you are “going places,”
I AM leaving you behind.
And how do I KEEP MOVING
while being rejected by women (and men)
while being misunderstood
while being JUDGED maliciously for my own personal decisions… about myself and my family, EVEN my schedule or preferred modes of communication…
while being ridiculed as a douche or a simpleton?
The answer woman…
is easily.
Not just easily, actually.
I move on,
and move past you
with a CERTAIN sway in my hips,
a certain SWAGGER
a certain LIGHTNESS
that comes when you have just been unburdened by something.
I am not just willing, I am COMMITTED to betting on myself over any and all other options. I am DETERMINED to instill THIS LEVEL of confidence, independence and autonomy in 1000 more women between now and June 2022. I have a lot planned.
