    Default Feel Like I'll never be good at anything.

    I have tried for the past few years to do so many things. Djing, modeling, Domming (online and rt), and dancing. I honestly could care less about dancing. I hate it. It's not my calling and it's just for the money. I can make decent money Domming and doing clips and cam online, but it takes a LOT of work. I've had like 4 energy drinks today and can't sleep now. I just see the successful ones and feel like I will never amount to that. I always feel like a goof when I'm mentioned on twitter compared to the other girls. IDK I just feel like a weirdo. I feel so close, but yet so far. Idk it's an odd feeling.

    The more time you spend comparing yourself to others, the more inferior you are liable to feel. There will always be people who surpass you in some way: people who are better looking, more successful, more skilled, better qualified, and so on. Accept this fact and make absolute peace with it as best you can. Embrace it, even. You cannot allow it to pollute your self-worth or give it any bearing on your journey as an individual.

    I feel nothing but admiration for people who are better than me in some way, especially if they are leaps and bounds ahead of me. Their advantaged position does not impact my sense of self and their superiority cannot discourage me from pursuing the path that I've chosen. I will gladly acknowledge when someone else is "better than" but I will never allow it to make me feel "less than". That's the key, really.

    The solution is to focus more on your self and less on what other people are doing.
    Good luck and keep your chin up, mami.

    Yes,^.
    I understand just where you're coming from, it's not easy, & sometimes it's just harder for some of us. Sounds overly simplistic, but that's the best why I can describe it for myself.

    It can take some time to reach a certain level of confidence in yourself that is independent of and unaffected by the outside world, but it will make you a stronger person. I think it all comes down to love and appreciation, in that we all need to love and appreciate ourselves a bit more. Not egotism masquerading as self-love but an authentic, genuine acceptance of who we are as individuals.

    Man… That's some hippie-dippy shit but it's true!
    Hahaha.
