“My only competitor
is the person
I was yesterday.”
This quote is encouraging us
to measure our own success through personal growth
rather than ‘societal standards’.
Socrates emphasized the importance
of self-knowledge and personal virtues.
Taking the time to
increase and stretch our own skills
will show “us”
what we are capable of and who we are and can be.
This promotes
creativity and innovation
which is essential
in ‘navigating’ through today’s challenges.
This encourages us
to have a ‘transformative’ approach
to personal development.
Be prepared to change
so that you can become
the best version of yourself possible.
By prioritizing self-improvement,
we will promote mental well-being,
which is so important in today’s world.
LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Writing About Writing: The Rainbow Trap
The good thing about living in modern times is that LGBTQ representation in media is increasing. Not just in niche and Independant media, either, but also in mainstream media. Books, movies, TV shows, comics... they're finally catching on that LGBTQ+ people form a significant part of their audience, and deserve to see themselves on screen and in fiction, not just as victims in documentaries and true crime shows.
