On Overcoming Self-Doubt and Building Self-Confidence
"Doubting myself is what drives me. A part of me hates being underestimated, but loves to be underestimated because I'm driven by proving people wrong. That's the Capricorn in me. 'Oh, you don't think I can do this? Let me show you.' There's so much fun in that."
"I compare myself a lot to others. Sometimes, we feel like, 'Why is that not my opportunity?' But what's meant for you is meant for only you. You get anxious. You feel like everybody's surpassing you, and everybody's doing better than you are. That's just not the case. Everybody has their own journey, and your journey is yours."
"For a long time . . . I defined myself by what I wasn't, which constantly set me up for failure and disappointment. And my life changed when I focussed on what I was good at, what I liked most about myself, and what made me stand out. Once I learned to like me more than others did, then I didn't have to worry about being the funniest or the most popular or the prettiest. I was the best me and I only ever tried to be that."
