Let's talk about frustration for second. I am the type of person who gets pretty frustrated easily, not at others, but more so at myself. When things don't go as I planned them to I don't know how to operate . I tend to shut down and just not respond and then later cry. The way that I handle my break downs of frustration isn't healthy and I am working on how I respond to the bad that sometimes happens. I think something that helps me, but also annoys me is having someone close to me tell me that everything will be alright. I don't know if this only applies to me, but when I am down I don't want to be positive or I find it harder to see the brighter side of things when there is a dark cloud blocking my vision. But from what I have learned and experienced I need the positive reinforcement whether I want to hear it or not. It overall makes me feel good to know that someone hasn't given up on me even if I have. And if you don't have people like that in your life right now that do that for you, you most definitely have the wrong people in your corner.
I am talking about frustration today because I've noticed that my patience wears so thin lately and I need to work on it! This looks ties into my frustration soap box, because when creating this look I was very upset because I didn't like the original look that I came up with. I was beyond upset that I could not think of a cute way to style my own clothes and its frustrating when all you want to do is create good content that many will enjoy and receive the validation that your hard work is paying off, but if you can't deliver it sucks!
Nevertheless, I persisted. Because of the positive reinforcement of my sister Brandi I was able to rather quickly pick myself up from my pitty party. I believe that if you want to see change you must have the willingness to change the situation. By not believing that all hope is lost I was able to believe the positive words my sister told me and with the addition of my desire to want to produce something good. I regrouped my thoughts and my actions changed. I calmed down and was able to think clearly and came up with the look that you see before you.
It's crazy how fashion can teach such valuable lessons like dealing with frustrations. I have to work through my issues and I realize that giving up is not an option for me anymore!
Thank you so much for reading! I hope that you've enjoyed my little rant! Until next time!
