Labeling people as 'interesting' or 'sparkly' creates unfair categories, dividing them into 'worthy' and 'unworthy' of attention. Everyone deserves to be heard, regardless of how they are labeled.
People are shaped by their environments and contexts. Just because someone doesn't seem exciting in one setting doesn't mean they lack worth or potential in another.
It's important to recognize that qualities like 'sparkly' can be brought out in everyone. Instead of limiting perceptions, we should foster a mindset that encourages growth and exploration in all individuals.
Stepping out of your comfort zone can lead to personal growth. Trying new activities and meeting different people helps you learn more about yourself.
Learning can happen in unexpected ways. Sometimes, you realize you've grown just by reflecting on your experiences rather than actively studying something new.
Creating a supportive social group can inspire creativity and curiosity. Surrounding yourself with like-minded individuals makes it easier to explore new ideas and develop your passions.
TKS helped me find my drive and purpose, giving me the tools and encouragement to pursue my passions.
Despite the positives, I struggled with pressure to conform to certain ideals, which sometimes felt overwhelming and isolating.
It's important to trust your own feelings and values, and remember there are many paths to success that don't involve strict adherence to someone else's vision.
