“Nothing holds you back more than your own insecurities.” — Unknown
Every day of your life you will face some type of insecurity that causes you to compare yourself to your fellow classmates who are getting better grades than you or to all your friends who seem to look good in whatever they put on while you feel like nothing looks flattering on your body. These insecurities can consume your life, if you let them. The voices in your head will tell you lies, like you are not pretty enough for that boy to like you, your friends are only pretending to like you, you are not skinny enough to wear that dress. Take it from a girl who has struggled with her weight and size throughout high school and still into college. These insecurities have kept me from being happy and enjoying life.
