W stories zapowiedziałam, że mam zamiar wyjść dziś z Instagrama na cały dzień. No ale polubiłan robić wpisy przy porannej sobotniej kawie. To odprężające. 🙂 Być sobą w dzisiejszych czasach jest cholernie trudno. Szczególnie jeśli jesteś trochę ekscentryczny 😂. Trzeba wypracować do siebie dystans oraz godzić się na pewną samotność (która wcale nie jest taka zła). Czujesz, że musisz starać się być bardziej zrozumiałym, co doprowadza do naprawdę śmiesznych sytuacji. ❤️ Wczoraj podczas spotkania z kilkoma super kobietami z @olsztyntoastmasters zwrócono mi uwagę, że za każdym razem przepraszam, że robię coś pierwszy raz. Zaczęłam się śmiać - każdej innej kobiecie powiedziałabym żeby sobie tego nie robiła. Że to absurd. Przecież po to poszłaś, żeby się uczyć. Po co się tak tłumaczysz... Robisz z poczuciem winy to, czego chcesz się nauczyć. No słodziutko 😂. Nic tylko poklepać po główce. Skromność to jedno. Ale głupie tłumaczenie się to już brak pewności siebie. A ja aż taka niepewna siebie przecież nie jestem. 😂 Być sobą wobec bliskich osób wcale nie jest łatwiej. Zawodzić czyjeś oczekiwania. Czytać nie to. Ubierać się nie tak. Mieć swój świat... I to wszystko ja sama sobie... Już z tego wyrastam, dość późno. Przecież nie jestem po to, by spełniać oczekiwania kogoś innego. Na szczęście mam bardzo mądrą mamę oraz kilka autorytetów, od których uczę się wiele - nawet tutaj, na Instagramie. Prawda jest taka, że albo będę sobą i będę się tym cieszyć... Albo będę całe życie nieszczęśliwa próbując być kimś, kim nie jestem. Wybór jest prosty moim zdaniem. 🤔 #książka #ksiazka #czytamksiazki #czytambolubie #kochamksiazki #książkiprzykawie #warsztatystylu #jakzostacpaniaswojegoczasu #zarzadzanieczasemdlakobiet #lekcjemadamechic #planer #lovetoread #lovebooks #booksandcoffee #haveagoodday #sunday #psc #olabudzynska #mariamłyńska #jenniferlscott #ksiazkiostylu #bookstagram #bookstagramtopasja

Comment of the Week
Regarding my Homemaker's Presentation post, Daisy Muse writes, "I love this! Seeing all the women all dressed nicely and smiling made me cry! When I taught first grade, I didn't think it mattered how I dressed. After all, who wanted to wear nice clothes, shoes, and perfume when you had to take thirty children outside to recess in the heat and humidity? One day, I tried dressing up for school at the advice of a fellow teacher. Everyone's attitude was improved--the students' and mine. Looking presentable works!"

Daisy, I love that. Your experience shows how important it can be to look presentable always.

I hope you enjoyed today's holiday gift guide and that it gave you inspiration for gift ideas. I am taking the rest of the week off. I hope you have a beautiful Thanksgiving celebration with your family. Have a wonderful week and I'll see you next Monday!

With love,

Jennifer
