Арнольд Шварценеггер: "Знаешь, почему большинство талантливых людей так и остаются никем? Они включают фальшивую скромность. Они говорят: «Я творец, я просто делаю свою работу. Пускай мир сам меня заметит».
Это чушь. Ты можешь быть гением, создавать лучшие продукты или писать шедевры. Но если люди об этом не знают, у тебя ничего нет. Абсолютный ноль. Твой талант просто умрёт вместе с тобой.
Умение продавать, продвигать себя. Доносить свою ценность до других и убеждать — это не грязное ремесло. Это величайшее искусство, без которого ты никто.
Чем больше людей узнают о том, на что ты способен, тем ближе ты к вершине. Перестань прятаться в тени. Выходи и учись заявлять о себе на весь мир. Твой успех зависит только от этого"
There's a line that should never be crossed.
When someone is aware that you're facing death, illness, crisis, or deep personal loss, and they still mistreat you, something darker is at play.
Cruelty in moments of vulnerability isn't accidental. It's intentional.
And when a person can hurt you while knowing exactly how fragile you are, that's not just abusive behavior.
It's a complete absence of empathy.
I told my daughter she had to pay $400 a month to live at home after college. She thought I was being hard on her. Paid it every month without complaint. Never missed once.
Two years later she moved out. I handed her an envelope. $9,600. Every dollar she ever paid me. Plus a little extra.
She cried. I told her that was her security deposit, first month, and emergency fund.
She thought I was punishing her. I was preparing her.
She’s a very happy young woman.
Ok. I’m done with the lunch crowd. I would like my timeline to offer new/ a refreshed variety of content.
Spent 20+yrs explaining meal prep & other financially frugal tactics to hard-headed entitled people. Done. Stopped providing any $ to “help” them. Bad ROI - now their grown kids don’t want to work either . I’m tapping out!
It is entirely possible Brad’s absence was him respecting boundaries (the kids and Angie).
I know people that have experienced parental alienation and have been asked not to attend/specifically excluded from milestone events.
Just adding a bit of “we don’t know everything” to this and honestly it’s their business no one else’s judgement is needed.
@Playteaux1@Sea_Glass1115 I miss having actresses with unique beauty- the variations added depth to the story telling. so many now all have the same plastic surgery faces
Duckie didn’t just sing “Try a Little Tenderness” in that record store, he invented main character energy in 1986.
Andie watching him? Priceless. Blane’s Porsche couldn’t touch this level of rizz. Pretty in Pink scene still undefeated.
🎬🎥 Pretty In Pink🔥❤️😱
The DOJ has ONE WEEK left to charge Anthony Fauci for the worst cover-up in modern medical history.
He lied to Congress about funding gain-of-function research in Wuhan. Millions died. Trillions were spent. And Fauci walked away with book deals and fawning media coverage instead of handcuffs. I re-upped my criminal referral to the DOJ because the evidence is overwhelming, and justice has been delayed long enough.
RT if you’re ready to see Fauci behind bars.
Apple there has to be a better way to add an iPhone app to a folder than chasing said folder round the screen as it carries out fighter jet level evasive manoeuvres
@rja_carnegie@AgnesGueco@LorentLouise And babies grow to teens and move out get their own lives; providing they live that long. Death occurs, parental alienation happens, growing up and moving on occurs. Find and keep a great partner you build together what you can. Nothing is guaranteed.
@MetamateDaz Guess the generation that the makers of the film fall into - director, screenwriter, producers. What’s the ratio of the $ folk: Boomer to GenX on getting that film made? (Not the actors-paid laborers)
As a straight woman - I’m not going to tell gay men how to style or age gracefully. They can ask other gay men what they find attractive or feel suits them; if they care.
Women - Do you care about what others think about how you aesthetically
present yourself? If yes, and IF you are single, heterosexual men and lesbians are your target market. If you are in a relationship-> your person is the target. If you don’t care what others think - do as you see fit.
Straight and gay women- If you care about the gay men’s options about “what is attractive” you are lost. Babes they will not be in a grow old partner for life relationship with women. Friends sure, but they are not going to be your lover and life partner - they do that with other men.
I’ve suffered too many bouts of EDs and self hate because of gay men beauty standards in media and fashion only to learn decades later that straight men, peers, friends, and family had totally different parameters on what they found beautiful and attractive…. Hint: it’s more to do with character, heart, and intelligence than long or short hair.
