<p><span ;="" style="font-size:17px">✨ Healthy Self-Esteem</span><br/>
<span ;="" style="font-size:17px">Healthy self-esteem can mean different things depending on how you see it. To me, it means acknowledging yourself, believing you still can, even when others look down on you. I don't really know the perfect story to use to explain this but I want to use myself </span>
<br/><br/><span ;="" style="font-size:17px">Story time 👇</span><br/><span ;="" style="font-size:17px">There live a girl named Alexander Mercy (Majo) hehe 😅.</span><br/><span ;="" style="font-size:17px">Back in 100 level, I had a beautiful roommate. I considered myself a pretty girl, but I wasn’t comfortable saying it out loud.</span><br/>
<span ;="" style="font-size:17px">So whenever conversations about beauty came up, I’d always say, “You girls are the fine girls, me I’m not fine.” It became a habit. Anytime I tried to say, “I’m actually beautiful,” it sounded like I was cracking a joke.</span><br/><span ;="" style="font-size:17px">One day, I finally said, “I am a beautiful girl ohh.”</span><br/>
<span ;="" style="font-size:17px">And someone replied, “You? You’re not fine. When pretty girls are talking, keep quiet." I laughed about it , but inside, it hurt.</span><br/>
<span ;="" style="font-size:17px">That day, I remembered something Wizard Liz always emphasis on:</span><br/>
<span ;="" style="font-size:17px">“The way you see yourself is how the world will see you. If you consider yourself a queen, then you are a queen. If you say you are the greatest thing in this world, then you are.”</span><br/>
<span ;="" style="font-size:17px">From that moment, I decided not just to say I was beautiful, but to prove it.</span><br/>
<span ;="" style="font-size:17px">Because I knew who I was, I realised my mistake, and I wasn't gonna let someone talk to me like that ever again, " I am Alexander Mercy" for a reason. (Some people still always ask me why I always say my name like that, it's because I believe I can do anything I set my mind to do)</span><br/>
<span ;="" style="font-size:17px">In second semester, I started taking care of myself, being intentional about how I looked and dressed. I realized I was a bit of a fashionista; I styled myself, and it felt good.</span><br/>
<span ;="" style="font-size:17px">And guess what? The same roommate who once looked down on me slid into my DM to compliment me with lotsss of heart emoji </span><br/>
<span ;="" style="font-size:17px">When you start developing yourself people starts to feel that energy too, and I felt it, I never got looked down on anyone that do are just jealous people who are very interested in my life. Wizard liz would say " someone who is occupied and busy with their lives won't have the time to talk about someone" and " when someone talks about you just know they don't have the time for their own life and its good actually, they are obsessed with your life."</span><br/>
<span ;="" style="font-size:17px">Never look down on yourself, not even for a second. The way you see yourself will shape how others treat you. Confidence isn’t arrogance, it’s self-respect.</span>
<br/><br/><span ;="" style="font-size:17px">Back to course 🤭</span><br/>
<span ;="" style="font-size:17px">Healthy self-esteem is about owning your worth and carrying yourself with pride. When you acknowledge your value, others have no choice but to acknowledge it too. True beauty and strength shine when you stop hiding and start believing in yourself.</span></p><p style="text-align: center; "><span style="font-size: 17px;"><strong>MAJO♡!</strong></span></p><p style="text-align: center; "><span style="font-size: 17px;"><strong><a class="tc-blue external-link external-link" href="https://twocents.space/insights/tag/4" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#4</a></strong></span></p>
At the end of each month, we give out cash prizes to 5 people with the best insights in the past month
as well as coupon points to 15 people who didn't make the top 5, but shared high-quality content.
The winners are NOT picked from the leaderboards/rankings, we choose winners based on the quality, originality
and insightfulness of their content.
Here are a few other things to know
1
Quality over Quantity — You stand a higher chance of winning by publishing a few really good insights across the entire month,
rather than a lot of low-quality, spammy posts.
2
Share original, authentic, and engaging content that clearly reflects your voice, thoughts, and opinions.
3
Avoid using AI to generate content—use it instead to correct grammar, improve flow, enhance structure, and boost clarity.
4
Explore audio content—high-quality audio insights can significantly boost your chances of standing out.
5
Use eye-catching cover images—if your content doesn't attract attention, it's less likely to be read or engaged with.
6
Share your content in your social circles to build engagement around it.
