Plus my strategies for tackling those problems.

In my post on not telling other people what I can do, I talked about how I’m always trying to tell my parents about how my blog can succeed.

My main goal of that post was to stop talking about my businesses all the time and just show off what I can do.

It turns out the damage done by me talking has already taken effect.

I have put initiation of conversation on a standstill on my end, but my parents keep bringing up how I have no chance of succeeding.

It’s quite aggravating, but also emotionally draining because I have nobody around me that supports me.

It particularly sucks when it’s my parents bringing me down. Betrayal by those close to you is often what hurts the most.

A few weeks ago, I wrote about radiating confidence and becoming magnetic. I’ve only been on the downtrend since then.

My confidence has been bashed and my self-esteem has dropped quite a bit, but it’s up to me to rebuild it myself because nobody close to me will help me.

And from reading Rising Strong, the first step is to identify why I feel this way and write it down.
