/lit/ - Literature

A book isn't going to fix this. Your entire life needs a perspective change. These kinds of posts from /adv/ or "book for that feel" will never help the OP if he doesn't actively participate in the change that is suggested in a book. YOU. YOU have to look at yourself and think about how others perceive you on an objective level, if they even perceive you at all. Write down a fucking list of your accomplishments, your good features, things you care about, what choices seriously cripple you, what do you want to do with your time left alive. Who the fuck are you OP? Why should other people care about you? Don't cop out on that mother fucking answer either. I don't want any of that "no one should care about me, I have no good qualities." I am asking you a mother fucking question and I expect a god damn answer. And what's hilarious is that you won't do it. You'll read this and think about it a little and move on without any real understanding of yourself. What's even worse is that no matter how long this wall of text is going to be, you'll probably nitpick some part of it and focus solely on that. Which is why I haven't asked a god damn thing about that girl you proddled. The second step after figuring out who you are, you piece of shit, is to figure out a lens to look at this information through. I don't give a fuck about your personal philosophy. The easiest one that comes to mind is the 4 virtues. Prudence, temperance, fortitude, justice. Fucking label that list as positives and negatives. Where do you need improvement? Where do you do things pretty well? Fuck yeah you got that far and know you gotta get better at things, or maybe wow I got some serous fortitude and can deal with shit. Be proud of that. Internalize that you are good at that, know that you are good at that, and know that no one else gives a shit. When you do that, that is confidence. It will then exude from you. People will notice.
