I use this a lot with the children I’ve worked with in the past. Everyone should be aware of this so they can help create a better environment for those around them, should the need ever arise. :)

Margaret Cho: Trolls Who Call Me ‘Fat And Ugly’ Are Admitting Defeat

Margaret Cho has a simple philosophy for dealing with degrading comments about herself: If you’re debating a woman and you stoop to calling her “fat” or “ugly,” you’ve already lost the argument.

The comedian explains how to turn misogynist attacks into a “more palatable and pleasurable” experience.

When someone tells you, ‘I love you,’ and then you feel, ‘Oh, I must be worthy after all,’ that’s an illusion. That’s not true. Or someone says, ‘I hate you,’ and you think, 'Oh, God, I knew it; I’m not very worthy,’ that’s not true either. Neither one of these thoughts hold any intrinsic reality. They are an overlay. When someone says, 'I love you,’ he is telling you about himself, not you. When someone says, 'I hate you,’ she is telling you about herself, not you. World views are self views—literally.

People get scared when you try to do something, especially when it looks like you’re succeeding. People do not get scared when you’re failing. It calms them. That’s why the show Intervention is a hit and everyone loves “worrying about” Amanda Bynes. But when you’re winning, it makes them feel like they’re losing or, worse yet, that maybe they should’ve tried to do something too, but now it’s too late. And since they didn’t, they want to stop you. You can’t let them.

from “Mindy Kaling’s Guide to Killer Confidence”

This is the truest thing that has ever been true.

A thought may arise: ‘It’s okay now, but it’s going to be different when I step out the door’. Already, you are anticipating your downfall. Recognise these as just thoughts. You can just watch them; feel their pull yet observe them as a movement in consciousness. Stay put as formless awareness.

Now this is something I could get behind. What about you? _ Imagine is people could take a #brainie versus a #belfie 😂😭 _ Seriously though. I love me some butts, and making butts strong as hell where it can crush some walnuts if you placed it between the cheeks. 🍑 But- there is something beautiful when one continues to work on their mind and intelligence. _ We are all so much deeper than just an ass…and unfortunately it seems like our society is ass-obsessed. Nothing wrong with wanting to get a strong booty….but we forget to challenge our brain on a regular basis. Growing your mind and intelligence. Challenging your thoughts and mindset. Becoming open minded and having depth versus not. _ I dig it. #showmewhatthatbraincando

*Deep breath* If you always feel like you have the potential to be good at something but lack the motivation to follow through so you never find out clap your hands!
