"Am I good enough?".

"Am I good enough?" is a question I ask myself a lot of times. I don't just ask myself this question, I always answer it too. And usually my answer is an extremely disappointing "no".

Hello there, I am the Earthian.

Am I a good enough son? Am I a good enough brother? Am I a good enough student? Am I good enough to be someone's friend? Am I good enough to achieve my own dreams? Am I good enough to deserve something good? Am I worthy enough to get my day made? Am I worthy enough to get someone's unwavering attention? Do I, of all people, deserve to be happy? Do I deserve to smile? Will I ever be good enough for purely the best? Will I ever be good enough for people to accept me? Will I ever even matter?
These are just a few of the questions I ask myself on an almost daily basis. Heck, sometimes, I even ask myself these questions multi times.

And every time I answer these questions with a negative answer, my self esteem drops down exponentially. I actually do end up feeling I'm worth less than a pile of garbage. Am I really that bad? Of course not.

It isn't just me who's asking these questions to himself. I've come to realize a lot of people do this too and I am here to settle this.
Yes, is the answer. Yes is the answer to all of the questions. You do deserve the best. And that is irrespective of your past, present or future. You do deserve everything and you also deserve better than everything you've dreamed of. A wise man once said and I quote "Doubts have killed more dreams than failures ever even would". Self doubt is our way of ruining our own lives. The fact that I'm even asking these questions is a hint to myself that I'm doing nothing but ruining myself. I know the journey out of this is going to long, hard and tough. I know it's going to be a struggle. But now, I just don't care how hard it is going to be for me to work on this aspect of my life. To surround myself with positivity is all I want and it starts from within me.

Remember, all of you, you all are special and perfect, just the way you are.

With love, the Earthian. Peace.
