The first piece of advice offered to anyone who wants to do anything is always “be confident.” Doubtlessly, this is good advice and the cornerstone to getting anything done. Due to this, everyone wants it and everyone admires it. But what if you aren’t confident? Should you attempt to get attract this amazing quality to yourself or should you just use your knowledge that everyone wishes they were more confident in order to prey on the insecurities of those around you?
You know those people, be they relative, co-worker, or friend, who make you feel like complete shit about yourself every single time you talk to them by way of those little cutting remarks, designed to “knock you off your high horse” or “bring you down a few pegs” or “put you in your place?”
They are assholes, and they are totally wrong about you.
“We gotta pretty yourself up some,” the woman who hired me at my first strip club told me after I worked my first shift. “If these guys wanted to look at the girl next door they’d just peep on their neighbor. It’s a lot cheaper. Get yourself some jewelry. Right now when you take your clothes off, it’s just… you.”
Ouch!
