I am trying to figure myself

Trying to figure yourself out and starting from scratch. It's hard because you go through a lot of days of your just floating because you're so much we're thinking about in your head.

2025/7/24 Edited to

... Read moreSelf-discovery is a deeply personal and ongoing process that often involves feelings of uncertainty and mental overwhelm. When you’re trying to figure yourself out, it’s common to spend many days feeling like you’re just floating—caught in a web of thoughts and emotions that can make starting from scratch seem daunting. One important strategy is to practice mindfulness, which helps in grounding yourself and reducing anxiety caused by overthinking. Techniques such as meditation, journaling, or focused breathing can clarify your thoughts and provide a sense of calm. Engaging in these activities daily supports mental clarity and emotional balance. Another valuable approach is setting small, achievable goals. When you’re overwhelmed, large tasks or life changes can feel paralyzing. Breaking down your journey of self-exploration into manageable steps offers tangible progress and a sense of accomplishment. This makes the process less intimidating and more structured. Seeking support is also essential. Connecting with trusted friends, family, or professionals such as counselors can provide external perspectives, encouragement, and guidance. Sharing your experiences can reduce feelings of isolation and help you gain new insights about yourself. Furthermore, embracing patience and self-compassion during this journey is critical. Understand that self-discovery is rarely linear—it involves ups and downs. Giving yourself permission to feel confused or vulnerable without judgment enhances resilience and fosters growth. By combining mindfulness, goal-setting, social support, and self-kindness, you can navigate the challenging process of figuring yourself out. These steps not only help in managing the mental noise but also empower you to rebuild your identity and direction with confidence and clarity.

HOW TO: HOURGLASS FIGURE W/ SQUARE WAIST GENETICS
As a girlie who has square waist genetics I always compared myself to others who had a natural hourglass look without even trying. It drove me to try to be the smallest version of myself as possible and it was an extremely unhealthy mindset to have, especially as a young adult trying to figure out

The HOURGLASS figure
People tend to think that training your core everyday is the answer to having that hourglass figure. In reality it is the training of all muscle groups- the main one being the BACK. Pull-ups changed the game for me- not only did it make me fall in love with the gym all over again, but it got me
