Quote- "Thanks to my mother i haven't wasted any time dwelling on whether i'm brilliant or a fool. It's completely unprofitable to think about it. WOODY ALLEN

Demi's words- You could spend your entire lifetime worrying what other people think of you but then you wasted your life's energy worrying about the things you have no control over. It really doesn't matter what people think of you. You can't be liked by everybody and that's not why were put on this earth. What matters is that you can go to sleep at night knowing you did your best and acted with kindness, honesty, and compassion for others and yourself.

Goal- Spend your days wisely, focus on what matters, not on the things you can't control, or they will end up controlling you.


The most powerful thing about this entry was the goal, spend your days wisely, focus on what matters, not on the things you can't control, or they will end up controlling you. This is very powerful to me maybe because this is kind of why i developed an eating disorder in the first place among my other issues such as self-harm, depression and anxiety. The most important thing to not fall down that dark trap that i fell into is to have confidence in yourself and to not believe everything that people say to you because most of the time they're only trying to get a rise of you. Your well-being is more important than any self-destructive behavior or wasting years of your life trying so hard to find satisfaction with the thing that lead to my way of controlling or you will later realize is that it's controlling you and it's a way to cope with life on the outside. Focusing on what matters is important to not get so deep into the trap that you can't get out of it, ask for help right away because you're worth more than what anyone thinks of you.
