So i'll, just let you sit back and just watch me work out to begin. You always posting. Don'T let me cause all right so now, i'm putting on the wig, and i had a like what do you call these things a wig cap one, but i decided to take it off because you know, since i wasn't trying to like melt it down or do Anything like that, i wanted to be a really quick process and you can see it um. You know just on my head right there between the part, so i just decided to take it off and put like a black cap, one um, but yeah like. I really wanted to be something glueless because, as you guys know, i'm not really messing with you know the whole lace fronts and glue, and things like that right now, so i really wanted to be very much clueless and um plus. It was like almost like 10 o'clock at night and your girl was tired, but you know i had to do what i had to do and another thing please don't mind my makeup. I look so oily because i've had. I was filming all day and literally like that. The makeup looks horrible. Now, when i'm looking back on it but yeah don't mind it, i'm not gon na do too much talking so hope. You guys just enjoy this process and we'll be getting into the topics. Later. All right, so i got my hair. This was actually a little bit of a struggle like this is my first time like working with a 5x5 lace. Closure like i haven't, had a wig in so long, so i'm going to do some very light. Curls um. I look really oily you guys like it is literally nine o'clock at night and i'm filming this video, i'm gon na put some large curls in here. It'S literally going to be a really effortless. You know type of look or whatever, but i asked you guys to um. Ask me some questions or just give me some topics to talk about like on instagram, so we're going to talk about. You know a few of those topics here. One of the most requested topics were self-motivation, and i know that, like from experience that self-motivation can be extremely like hard um, simply because i am a full-time influencer in case you guys don't know or if you're new to my page i am a full-time influencer. So with that, i have to be self-motivated at all times. I don't have a job to go to where i have to be on time that i have to do some work for things like that. I have to be very self-motivated and in case you guys don't know like i was working at a full-time job for the past. Like two years, i've been working literally since the age of 15, so i've never not had a job um. But before i became a full-time influencer, i was working like for my corporate job for the past two years and i um and then i quit back in 2019. I literally just had to be like on my grind because it was like. I was really scared to quit to be honest with you, because it's just like hey, you know i'm making decent amount of money from like social media, but like who's to say that, like i'm going to continue to make that type of money, i get a lot Of messages about being a full-time, influencer and um them not having enough time or things like that, it's just like girl. You have to make time. Okay, like you literally, have to make time if this is something that you want to do or if this is something that you have like a passion for you have to make time. Okay, the that saying that cliche saying, like you make time for what you want to is like legit, true. So, to give a little bit of background about myself is i started youtube in 2017. I started youtube really. In 2015, i put out a few videos when i was in college. Don'T look for those videos because they are not available um, because it was so embarrassing and then um. I stopped in 2015 due to like an overload of like work and stuff, and then i got back into it in like 2017. um, probably like mid 2017. he's not even kidding you guys dedicate my weekend to recording. I would not do anything for like months um, but i was just record i would put out content. I didn't have any type of like equipment, so no studio lights, no ring light, no um, no camera, no nothing. I was literally recording with natural light and also my uh, my phone and i had to wake up early in the morning to get started because i needed all the daylight. I could get sis and then i would literally record until i couldn't record anymore and then i would start to edit. I would research, i would learn a lot of things i never once reached out and asked anybody, and i'm not saying that you you don't need to do that. I'M not saying that at all um because, like definitely if you have somebody that you know you are you're inspired by definitely like look, you know reach out, but just nine times out of ten you guys like for me, i am not a big influencer at all. Like um, i'm what they call a macro influencer, i do have a lot of supporters who you know follow me and you know who are on this journey with me, but i would say even with like me having you know, a hundred thousand followers like i get A lot a lot of messages and i'm not able to go like i'm able to go through some of them and i'll respond like as i can, but sometimes your messages are overlooked. So i say that to say that, like you can reach out to your favorite influencer, but sometimes like they, because they get a lot of messages. They'Re, not gon na see your message, so it's always best to do things on your own and for me, it just makes me feel some type of way in a good way when it's like yeah. I did that you know what i mean like when you conquer something and you're like yeah. I did that all by myself. I didn't need anybody to help me or anything like that like it just makes, you feel really good, so i would say definitely definitely make sure you start doing things for yourself, because it's going to make you feel good in the long run but um you know Just to get back to the topic at hand here, but i would just literally give up my weekend and um just to make sure i had some content to record and put out, and i was working 40 hours a week um, because i was full time. Obviously i had like the most stupidest hours ever like. I can't even tell you what the hours were. I was getting off at like 7 p.m, or something like that and then the job was so far away. It was like traffic was horrible, no matter what, if you ever say in charlotte y'all, already know that 77 is just so horrible, so my job was like 35 40 minutes away like being dealing with traffic. It took like almost an hour so just to get home. I was like so noises like. I couldn't even tell you, but that didn't stop me like once i got home and i got settled or whatever sometime. I would pick up some food to eat or whatever, but once i got home and settled i was like legit editing my videos. I was responding back to comments. I was doing research to see like okay. What i need to do so i can make sure that i'm like good, you know what i mean and that's what legit what i was doing or whatever, and i think that kind of plays into like the self motivation topic. You know what i mean like when you want something and you're very much like interested in it you're going to be motivated like regardless. I can't explain that think about something that you've done before, where you wanted it so bad, where you know you just did it. You know what i mean like you just got up every day and you did what you have to do and that's where the self motivation comes in like if it's something that you truly want to do, if it's truly a goal of yours, if it's truly a Passion of yours then you're going to get up and do it and do what you got to do girl. So i think that that's where a little bit of it comes from like you have to really enjoy like what you're doing i get so many messages about. Like how they just don't have enough time in the day, you know what i mean and i just feel like that's excuses, um in my opinion, and not to be that type of way, i'm just being like real with you, like you know you make time for What you want, and if this is something that you truly really want to do, you're going to do it so there's no, if ends or buts period. One of the things that is like very helpful is, if you just said like, if you have like a planner and like i can only speak for me. I know everybody is like different, but for me i have like this little planner um and i just really write down everything. So i write down like my yearly goals. I write down my monthly goals and my weekly goals and my daily goals. I think that's another way for you to, like you, know, kind of make you stay on track and be self-motivated if you have like a planner and i always live by planner like each and every time i had interviews, i would always say like. Oh yes, i can live without my planner and i've always had a planner like literally because it literally helps you with your, like with everything that you need to do. So. If you need to look at your week in a glance, then you can do that with your planner. I put like little boxes beside each task that you have to do. I don't know it just does something for you like, i feel like it really just helps. Um, you feel like you've accomplished something once you check it off and also when you see that the box is still empty. It may sound weird, but it's true, but when you see that the box is still empty, you're like okay, i got to get this done. Like that's, the type of you know, energy you're going to be on. I feel that somebody won't be motivated if they have nothing to look forward to, if that makes sense. So, for me, like i, have to be motivated, like i do have my days where i'm lazy, but i do have to be motivated, no matter what, because at the end of the day, if i ain't making these videos, if i ain't taking these pictures, this is Your girl, gon na be homeless or whatever so now, like. I'Ve always been motivated like when it came to like youtube, because i knew that this was something that i wanted to do and excel at, but now like, i literally have no choice. That'S just that! I don't really know any other tips on how to stay motivated. To be honest with you, i think, like i said, if you know that you're getting something out of it, then that's going to be like your motivation right there um. So i would but, like i said, just try to find if it's something that you truly want to do then you're gon na be motivated. So also, i will say this um. I do watch um motivational, uh speakers. That'S another way to be motivated is when you listen to other people's like testimony. If you follow inspirational and motivational quotes like on instagram change, you, like, i, promise you like it'll change you because they just speak to you in a different type of way. So i would suggest like if you have a hard time like being motivated, definitely take that into consideration. It'S going to help you so much look like cause baby, hey. I ain't worried about meditating and taking time away now. Obviously, you guys i'm not a professional okay. I did the best that i could you know with this hair. I think it's turned out really cute for it to be like glueless, um baby hairs need to be worked on just a little bit just a little bit. They need to be worked on, but it's fun whatever my next topic, and this would be like the last topic, but whatever is basically about um like being confident. I get this question a lot. How am i so confident like? Where did i get that that confidence growing up? I was not confident at all, based on a lot of things as far as like with the media. Sorry, based on a lot of things as far as like just media, it was a lot of different factors um for me that made me not confident um. I really honestly didn't become like confident, and i just didn't blossom until my um until i got to college um. That'S whenever i really felt like i kind of just blossomed into myself. I felt like i really blossomed to myself and just really um became like very confident where i just really stopped caring about what people thought of me what they said about me, um. What i seen in the media like i was just like it is what it is like you only get one life girl. You got to live it to your fullest and i understand that. That'S like sometimes it's easier said than done, and literally like think about it. I said my sophomore year in college that that means like from when i started at a very young age, where i was very cognitive of my image and i don't know when this was, but it had to be like middle school, like i knew in middle school, That i wanted to look like this person or i wanted to have hair like this person, and things like that. So i became very cognitive of that and i don't know when what age that was. But again it was a very young age, all the way until uh college, you know sophomore year in college, so that's a long time. So that is a long long time. Okay, that is years years like that, had to be like what 10 years or so or longer, but yeah, that's a long time of feeling how you feel or whatever. So it is definitely a process. It'S not something that comes overnight, be very confident and gain self-love. That is definitely a process, but i think it's more so like a mindset, i think for me what changed um was i just really. I don't really know what clicked it was really like. I said it was more so a mindset i feel like having confidence is a mindset you want to mean, like you have to, even if you don't feel like you look the best that day, you still have to walk in and on it like you, like, you Look good, okay and um. For me i don't really know like i said where, like what changed for me um in sophomore year, but i know like i remember a time where i would like not go out the house at all. Unless i had makeup on um, i remember my freshman year in college, like i would wake up like i had 8 a.m classes. I would wake up at like six. Something says to go in this to go: take a shower and also put on makeup um. Just so i can be ready for the day and that was so exhausting. You know what i mean like it was so exhausting you know. I was trying to hide behind like makeup, and things like that now, like i'm so thankful, but now i rarely ever wear makeup the only time i wear makeup is like when i'm like doing youtube videos or if there's like a special event going on but other Than that now sis i am not doing makeup at all um. I actually hate wearing makeup to be honest with you, but yeah. So i say all that to say that, like i just woke up one day and i was like effort, you know what i mean like. I was like i'm tired of trying to please other people, like i'm tired of trying to like look a certain way just to appear beautiful. I need to just be confident in my own skin and i just have to get over it. People want me they want me if they don't they don't if they think that i'm ugly, it is what it is like and i'm not going to be everybody's, like cup of tea, and i literally had to like have that self-talk with myself literally every day, and I think from that point one i started going out, you know like i would always be together like i would keep myself together, because i'm never going to go out here. Looking messy, i would go out without makeup on. I would go out um just like not done up. I didn't care really about my hair, like my hair would be nice and cute, but it didn't have to be perfect. You know what i mean um. So that's what i would do honestly and um. That'S how and like that's how i became like how i am today or whatever, like. I honestly, do not do not care um about makeup and just like how i look and what people perceive me as like. That'S why i'm like i'm able to do whatever i do now like on youtube um, because you have to have like a scent. You have to have some type of like backbone. You know what i mean like when it comes to youtube, so you guys, i didn't even cut this hair, so i'm gon na have to layer it, but i'm not gon na do that right now because, like i said it's like almost 10 o'clock at night, i Feel that, like i said, i feel like a few different things like happen for me, i would affirm myself, so i will always say affirmations and that's like you're, beautiful or you know, find something that i really loved about myself like. It was always like affirmations after affirmation surrounding yourself with people, you know who make you feel good okay, so it's like sometimes like. If you have friends or whoever family members or whatever and they're constantly, you know talking about something specific on your body or like just about you. Obviously, that's not going to make you feel good, and i know you can't really control who you surround yourself with when it comes to family, because, like that's your family but um, like especially like with friends like get you some friends, that's gon na hype, you up. No matter what they're not gon na make you look a fool out here: they're, not gon na. Let you go out here, looking any type of way, but get you friends and a group of people that you can genuinely connect with that's going to hype. You up and just be there for you. I think that plays a lot on self-confidence. You don't want any friend group. You don't want to be in any friend group where they're thinking like they're better than you or you know you just the little ugly duckling or anything like that. Like i hate, i hate to explain it like that. But it's true like that's, not true friendship. That'S not a genuine friendship and i don't want to be or surround myself with anybody that feels that way like. I want us all as a collective to really just be like. Yes, you know: okay, like i really like that type of interaction and with my friend group now like i can honestly say like ain't. No, if answer but about it, baby like it, don't matter like we can be regular, daggler, okay and they're gon na be like yes, okay. What is this? Is this from perry. You know what i mean like we hype each other up to the fullest, and that's because, like it's, not just it's not on fake energy, either like it's like legit real, like we truly feel like dang. My is bad. Okay or you know what i mean like. We truly feel that, like hey, that's my friend, she bad and like type of thing like that's how we feel, even with relationships like one once you get into relationships, do not be with these weak people. Okay, these weak ass people that be telling you. What is a man or a woman that doesn't you know, hype you up or give you like? That type of love like to you know what i mean like you have to be happy within yourself. First, before you try and be with anybody. Obviously, you have people that are with toxic people, and all they do is constantly just bring them down. You know what i mean like they're, always talking about what they wear like or how they talk, or you know how they're dressing like little things like that or whatever that's, not healthy, that's toxic, and that doesn't help your self-confidence. You know what i mean so don't be with someone in a relationship you want to mean. That'S not that's doing that, because at the end of the day, it's like what are you with me for like why? Why are you with me if you feel all of these things about me, so you need to reevaluate like take a look at your friend group. Now take a look at your relationship now and also take a look at your family. Like i said, you can't really control like family like that, but you can still control like you, can still control like your environment and where you choose to put yourself. So if you feel that your family is toxic, then you know don't go around them for a while. You have to sometimes separate yourself from people and just things so you'll be able to grow in life, and that's just that's just me being honest right. There also do things that scare, you think that's something that builds confidence. You know what i mean like when you're doing something that's out of your element out of your box, whatever, like it's really going to help, you feel confident like i know it sounds weird um, but it's just different like if you're, not a person that loves talking In front of people um if you're shy, reserved or whatever, if you like kind of just maybe go to a - i don't know like do karaoke one night or you know, have us present a speech or something like that like once you finish like it's, it's really Scary, but once you finish like i promise you like, it's amazing, you know what i mean like it's an amazing feeling. It'S gon na make. You feel really good it like gets something going in your body and you feel really good afterwards. Last thing, i'm going to say is um caring for yourself when you care for yourself like because you can't depend or expect others to treat you how you want to be treated to tell you that you're, beautiful um, you know to do things for you that you Feel that they should do or whatever, like you can't depend on others like you have to do it for yourself and when you care for yourself like none other, then you will build your self-confidence there. You know what i mean. Do things that make you happy. Do things that you know make you feel good um do things that make you look good, so, whether that's getting your hair done, your nails done a massage or whatever. If you feel good in the inside you're going to feel good on the outside, and it's never about materialistic things, so i just want y'all to understand that it's not saying hey go spin, a bag, you know and get your hair nails and facials and things like That no it's not like that um, i'm saying just like. If those things kind of make, you feel happy you want to meet, or it does a little something for you, then definitely by all means. Do that. I'M just saying when you care for yourself says even if that's taking a bath every and i'm talking about soaking in the tub, i'm talking about just taking a bath that you're supposed to do daily. I'M just saying like if you take a bath and you soak in the tub and like you have your me time, you got your candles going. You got your book here or you got your uh favorite, youtuber or favorite tv series, or whatever going in you know you just getting all these good feels or whatever, like that's caring for yourself. You want to me and that's definitely going to help with your self-confidence. Try for at least a few weeks since i promise you you'll, see a difference like you'll start feeling good like, even if you were like meditating and things like that, that's still caring for yourself. You are doing things to feed your body to feed your soul, to feed your mental. So when you do those things like, i promise you, like your whole little life, will change um and another thing really quick before i end the video i'm sorry sis, but i just want to speak to my sisters like. I know that we live in a time where social media is literally something that we just cannot escape. You know what i mean social media is very much prevalent. It'S very much out there it's very much in our face, especially with instagrams like a little freaked up algorithm. All we see is just a lot of like influencers and celebrities, and you know they're out here and getting their breasts done. Their body done their boot, their booty done um lip fillers, you know eyelash extensions and all that extra stuff or whatever, like you know - and i don't wear eyelash extensions. So don't come for me these are little lash strips or whatever, but i'm just saying and there's no shade to people that wear eyelash extensions because something's cute okay, i want i want to try it, but i'm so sensitive that i'm scared that, like you know it's Going to cause allergic reaction because maybe i'm just sensitive or whatever, but people like living a fantasy. We are surrounding ourselves, or we just kind of view, a lot of celebrities and influencers um on our feed that are doing this going this place and traveling, and that can really really play a lot on our like self-confidence. You know what i mean and self-love and just all types of things self-respect, especially if you see girls out here, you know shaking twerking or whatever all on instagram and doing certain things and they get this amount of likes or whatever the case may be, or this Amount of love and comments based on them like twerking and stuff or whatever, but you have to really remove those. This goes back to what i was saying earlier. You have to remove yourself from that, for example like. If you follow me and um, i remember like um my girl aaliyah, i love aaliyah's face like i remember her, seeing this or whatever in one of her videos. I love watching her definitely go check out her channel because she's bomb.com period just load a girl, but anyway. So i remember her saying you know basically like if you follow me and i make you feel that way. If i make you feel insecure or you're not worthy or whatever it is, then you need to unfollow me, sis, okay, that is not healthy and - and i don't never try to put that out there to be honest with you like. I never try to be this type of person where i'm just like this badass and it's because that's just not me, that's not my personality, no matter what people see on camera, like that's a perception that y'all see on camera, but that's just not who i am You know what i mean, i'm very much, a caring and loving person. I want to see everybody win, like literally everybody win um. I feel more, i'm a little too nice where people be trying to like you know, push push me over, but i'm very much caring. I'M very much loving and i will literally literally help anybody. I just have that sensitive spot in me. You know what i mean so, but just to get back to it. If you follow me and i make you feel any way that any way other than you know you feeling beautiful or just being empowered or whatever the case may be, then you don't need to follow me and if anybody else makes you feel that way, you don't Need to follow them, so you can control your environment, you know what i mean, i think that's. The most important thing is to control your environment, to build your self-respect, your self-love self-confidence, and all of that like self-worth, you need to do that because, once you do that, i promise you a lot of things will change i'm not going to follow anybody that i Feel like dang, i wish i had her life. You know what i mean, because when you do that like it's just so it becomes very negative and it becomes like i feel like it becomes like a little bit of a resentment like you resent that person, and you don't like this person because of x y And z um, all because of like you wishing that you were them or you wish that you had a body like them or a face like them or hair like them or whatever. That'S what i'm really trying to tell you it's just like that's another way to really really help your self-confidence is when you stop when you, when you interact the least with people that you know really just makes you feel not worthy and interact more with things that Really help you make, you feel good, even if it's for a split second like if you read a message you like that spoke to my soul like keep interacting like comment, uh see something that's similar to that. You know what i mean and you're gon na start. Seeing a lot of things like on your explore page that surrounds you know nothing but whatever you like previously, which is like past positive messages or you know whatever so yeah. I think that's really it and, like i said, that's the most important thing as far as like being self-confident, love yourself, girl, like you, only get one life, don't what other people say about you and what they're doing and what they're not doing it if they support You and if they don't support you like there's still something that i'm working on today, like with me being in social media, whatever, like people who support me, who don't support me, people who i thought you know would support me and they haven't supported me or i Just don't see that support from them, like that's, still a struggle with me, but it's still a learning process and don't be so hard on yourself if it's not coming overnight. So it can take time. Okay and i think that's the beauty of life - that's just the beauty of evolving and just leveling up. You know what i mean take it day by day, step by step, and you know you'll you'll get there. I promise you you will, but just remember that you are always always beautiful and that personal want you or if this person don't want to be your friends bump them. There are so many other people in this world period. Okay, here your design squad, so that completes this video. I hope that you enjoyed it.
