I could not find love because of low self-esteem.

I could not find love because of low self-esteem.

I won't even mince words here. I remember how I used to feel less of myself when I was a bit younger.

I mean, I didn't start this way. I used to carry myself with pride. Everything changed when some people began to make me feel less of myself. 

I had friends who called me ugly. 

The one I want to talk about today is a guy I met at a particular time who was interested in me. I also loved some things about him but I began to feel less of myself when he would always refer to my arms as being too fat.

He would say it subtly but it was gradually affecting me. Whenever I wanted to wear any dress, I always checked for the “Fat” arms. I of course knew he was the wrong person considering the many other red flags I noticed. 

Still wondering if I had gotten married to that kind of person, I would have become something else by now. 

Do you know the good news? When I met the love of my life, he fell in love with everything he saw in me.

He cherishes those arms and I am even surprised it was one of the things that attracted me to him. He sees my arms as fresh and beautiful. The other guy saw fat arms. 

Behold the fat arms!


Where am I going today? 

You should never be angry that everyone is not interested in what you do. 

  • Some will talk down at what you do. 
  • Some will never show interest in it.
  • Some might even try to compare you with others when it is obvious your journey is different.  

Ask me why they do this:

They are not your target audience. 

Your offers are not for them. 

No matter what you do, they will never be please with you.

When you encounter the people who your offers are for, they will not in any way stress you. 

You can't be selling to everyone. 

The day I understood this, I began to have tremendous results online. 

When next someone tells you that you are too pricey, don't get offended because they may not be your target audience. 

This Saturday, I will hold a free masterclass with people who want to position and build an enviable brand on LinkedIn. Have you joined yet? All the free slots will soon be taken.

Your arms are fresh and beautiful. As you rightly said, everyone can't be interested in what you are selling, those that are interested are your target audience and really, they won't stress you

I am not everyone's cup of tea. The earlier I understand this, the better for me.
