I am not inspirational.⁣ ⁣ I’m a special blend of sarcastic and honest that usually rubs people the wrong way.⁣ ⁣ I don’t have any intense mental illnesses.⁣ ⁣ I haven’t beaten an eating disorder.⁣ ⁣ I don’t have an insane weight loss story.⁣ ⁣ I haven’t overcome any huge life battles to get to where I am today.⁣ ⁣ Honestly, I’ve been incredibly blessed and my life has been easy.⁣ ⁣ And what’s inspirational about that?⁣ Nothing.⁣ ⁣ People have come up to me and said that they find me inspirational, and all of the above thoughts flood into my mind.⁣ ⁣ I’m just out here working out, working my day job, starting my photography business, and doing things I like. Very basic and boring.⁣ ⁣ But why is it that when someone pays us a compliment, the first thing we do is shut it down?⁣ ⁣ You don’t have to have a tragic backstory or overcome a huge personal battle to inspire positivity, growth, and motivation in others.⁣ ⁣ Just be true to yourself and continue to grow and be the best person that you can be.⁣ ⁣ This season, I’m going to work on saying “Thank You” and also sharing compliments with others.⁣ ⁣ Will you join me?⁣ ⁣ #positivitypost #challengeyourselfdaily #girlswholift #honoryourcurves #knixwear #celebratemysize #effyourbeautystandards #bodyposi #selfiesforselflove #iamsizesexy #everybodyisbeautiful #bodyacceptance #goldenconfidence #bodyconfidence #bodyconfidencemovement #rawpost #nomakeupchallenge #nakedface
