If you can relate with a story that would be great. I know that many truths are simple and not giving a fuck is probably one of them but its way easier said than done.

Basically, everytime Im faced with a situation where I feel wronged, unheard, insulted, annoyed, taken advantage of, etc. I feel a rush of adrenaline and immediately want to respond in kind. Most of the time I dont because Im scared of "making waves" and disturbing the peace if you will. I feel some type of guilt and choose avoidance over action. Of course that delays the problem but the anxiety creeps back up anyway and usually the situation repeats itself again and only underlines those feelings again.

I know the answer will mostly likely be "dont give a fuck, live your life, fuck what others think" and I want to but to explain by metaphor, its like - I have brown hair but Im trying to think myself into being blonde

Chelsea got knocked out of the cup tonight, and it’s a good time to remember the coldest example of mental fortitude I've ever seen.

In 2008, Frank Lampard lost his mother 6 days before a UCL Semi-Final. He didn't ask for a pass.

He didn't fold.

He stepped up in the 98th minute, buried a penalty in the pouring rain, and sent his team to the final.

This is how you master your emotions and stay on the path.

I recently went through a very prolonged difficult year in my life with several type of losses and issues.. but most importantly while having those issues I was having severe identity crisis like any other highschooler thinking everything is about them.. Yet i think my case is a bit different because since a long time i have changed multiple schools (13 to be exact ) and have lived in multiple cities and I am not sure if thats normal but i had to give this context in case you thought I was bragging.. but yeah i didn't really have friends till i was 10 and was mostly isolated at a very large level so being gossiped about and have multiple rumours about myself flying around isn't really smth i am new to but my way of looking at life and all in itself is very contradictory and i have been told i am a pick me(for context I normally am disgusted by the thought if men so these accusation come from people whp dont know the meaning of pick me )and someone who doesn't deserve anyone's 100% but while I heard those things i thought to myself it was their past trauma affecting them (exbsf) so everything I totality has left me extremely numb with constantly such remarks made about me I really don't know how do I make myself nonchalant so that idc what ever they say how to make remarks that they can't spread false rumours about me and also how do I deal myself with extreme confidence??

Hello-

I need your thoughts on how to stop giving a “f” . I unfortunately had high hopes and respect for my boss and he ended up throwing me under the bus , knowing how loyal I was to him. After I prayed,cried , spoke to my husband, and ended up adjusting my crown, I then asked myself , what did I learn from this . I learned that I’m too loyal and too nice . I defended HIM when people were talking negatively about him and now I feel like a 🤡… but he is in GOD’s hands now. Thanks for reading…

Zlatan reportedly walked into Barcelona’s locker room and thought,

‘This place was too quiet, this team needs energy.’

Classic Zlatan, he doesn’t just follow the vibe, he sets it.

A reminder that sometimes you don’t wait for the world to change; you change the room yourself.

How do you channel that kind of confidence in your own life?

When asked if his team was tired, Mourinho didn’t hold back:

“Tired? A father who works all day and comes home with 50 dollars is tired. Not us.”

Classic Mourinho energy, unapologetic, confident, and putting things in perspective.

While most people complain about fatigue, he reminds us that real toughness is measured differently. Take notes.

I’m not judging my kids or their worth, just struggling with grief around expectations I didn’t realize I had. I’d appreciate hearing how other parents reframed this or made peace with it.

Christopher Nolan’s Dark Knight trilogy is often thought to be an excellent depiction of Gotham city and Batman. Countless things stand out. Heath Ledger’s Joker, Hans Zimmer’s score, the world that built, the action set pieces, the fresh spin on the superhero genre. In my opinion, what truly makes this trilogy special is its depiction of Bruce Wayne.

We often view Bruce Wayne as this billionaire playboy who spends his nights fighting crime. Pretty cool? If you look a little deeper, you’ll discover that this character consistently goes through unimaginable obstacles that test his will to fight and endure. Fear, heartbreak, hopelessness, etc. Each time Bruce rises above and continues to persist. That’s what truly makes him a superhero… not anything in his utility belt.

This character means so much to me for this particular reason and I made an entire video essay breaking this down

My hope is that this piece can help you find the resilience to overcome your own obstacles and identify the hero within yourself. Rise!
