I got some more statues!! :D

Brought them off of Amazon and for a pretty good price, too! The first one is a statue of Heracles found sold on the store "Palmetto Housewares" but the last time I checked they're almost sold out so an alternative would be the Etsy shop "DrPlasterArts"! The lighting doesn't do it much justice (without specific lighting hitting it, it loses its detail at first glance) but I have no complaints.

The second one is a bit basic, a Nike statue, found sold by the store "Kakalote" on Amazon :> A bit smaller than the first statue but cheap for its size ($9.09) with little imperfections on it. Might be better fit for a Nike worshipper, but I simply am using the first two statues for decoration :)

And the last one, the only one that actually went on an altar, is the Hermes bust by the same company as the Heracles statue! Around six inches and was a bit more weighty than I thought it was going to be lol. Costed somewhere between $11-14 and you can't really see it but it came with a little chip on the back of his hat. Other than that is perfect :)

Hopefully this post might find some poor helpol who wants to get their altar figures cheap like me :')

🥇 Subtle Nike Worship 🏆

Participate in/learn about competitive sports of any kind

Honor your own accomplishments; give yourself some credit, and allow yourself some pride

Celebrate the accomplishments of others; be a good sport if you lose at something

Sing/listen to music that empowers you or makes you feel good about yourself

Have a candle that reminds you of her (no altar needed)

Keep a picture of her in your wallet

Wear jewelry that reminds you of her

Exercise; move your body frequently

Enter into competitive contests, even if you don't think you'll win

Practice acceptance for when things don't go the way you planned

Practice resilience for continuing onwards despite it all (the fact that you're here now shows you're already doing it c:)

Have imagery of wreaths/laurel wreaths, laurel trees, wings, feathers, palm branches, palm trees, lyres, and sashes around

Have stuffed animals of horses or any animal that you associate with victory, such as eagles, rams, or lions

Display your awards/achievements in your space; it's more than ok to be proud of yourself

Make a list of your personal strengths, things you're proud of, or things you've achieved (both big and small)

Make a list of future dreams, goals, and aspirations you have; they can be as simple and short-term as "waking up in the morning"

Support humanitarian or human rights organizations

Stand up for causes that you strongly believe in; attend protests if you can

Stand up for others if you see injustice; stand up for yourself as well

Volunteer at homeless shelters or for local humanitarian causes

Leave positive sticky notes around your workplace/school anonymously to encourage your fellow human

Engage in random acts of kindness; put a bit of goodness into the world

Treat yourself to something that makes you happy, especially when you're having a hard day

Try to dress in ways that make you feel good about yourself

Express yourself; if you can't do so openly, try doing so in subtle ways, such as wearing a bracelet that represents your gender, wearing shoelaces that are pride flag colored, or using gender neutral colognes/perfumes

Look into your family history; try to find things that you're proud of

Take pride in your cultural heritage; celebrate it freely

Take time to appreciate the things you love about your life, such as pets, friends, or even just nature

Learn a new skill; take up a new hobby

Hone previously learned skills; practice, practice, practice

Give some love to your past self; acknowledge all that you've overcome

Practice self-forgiveness

Send yourself positive messages; leave sticky notes around your space with encouraging messages for yourself

Send random reminders to loved ones about why you love them; make someone feel good about themselves

Take breaks after you've been working on something for a long time

Practice patience with yourself; you're only human

Be gentle with yourself when experiencing burnout

Remind yourself that you are more than what you "contribute to society"; you are more than the expectations set on you

Constructively self-reflect on things you can work on; work towards self-improvement

Work on skills that build your confidence; this takes time

Prioritize your own well-being when necessary; remember that you matter as much as anyone else

Practice projecting your voice; practice public speaking; get comfortable/familiar with how you come across

Take risks; try new things that you normally wouldn't

Ride a rollercoaster or amusement park ride

Be adventurous with the world around you; explore new places that you haven't been to yet

Practice conquering your fears

Get curious about the things that you scare; learn more about them to familiarize yourself with them

Eat a good breakfast on days you know will be straining for you

Try to eat healthy; eat foods that make you feel good physically and mentally

Make sure to hydrate throughout the day

Drink something with caffeine or honey in it; tea is a great option for this

Keep moving forward
