I've recently gotten into using the Instagram "Questions" feature to ask people personal questions, mainly about themselves. I try to keep it positive, so I thought I would poll to see what my followers liked about themselves. In our society, there are so many ads and products that target our insecurities, but I want people to embrace their insecurities and learn to love them along with the traits they already like about themselves.
1. Elise, 19
"My smile and making other's smile and laugh."
Such a great quality to have!
2. Belle, 20
"Physical is my eyeballs and mental is my work ethic."
Good work ethic = successful as hell!
3. Kaysee, 19
"I'm optimistic."
Optimism is so important and rare to find in such a negative world. You go girl!
4. Ryann and Claire, 19
"How funny I am."/"I'm funny."
These girls make me laugh for hours on end.

It takes courage to be dauntless. Fear is a powerful force and to avoid that is true courage.
