Self-compassion isn’t about being soft.
It’s not about lowering the bar.
It’s about responding to yourself with truth and kindness.

👉 You can be honest without being cruel.
👉 You can grow without shame.

It takes practice. But it’s worth it.

Becoming Superhuman

Yes, many WhatsApp contacts viewed my stories, but no one supports me in return. My contributions have gone unappreciated. Not even Meta, my ISP, or DNS provider supports me. Isn't it ironic that people did not support me at all, yet at the same time prevented me from even considering suicide and from ending my life?

Sometimes I feel jealous of my own favorite ASMR artist. She has flawless skin, a slim body, and nice muscles. I am male, and I have nothing except a fat body, problematic skin, and messy hair, with people around me telling me I'm ugly. I have no reason to be attractive or to be loved by a woman anymore. Additionally, I am poor. She is rich and can afford everything, including fancy sportswear. I guess it's a matter of comparison. Jealousy kicks in.

It's okay to feel empty. It's okay to feel like I'm missing out on everything that other people have that I don't. It's okay to feel depressed or bored because other people's lives seem better than mine. It's okay to feel powerless in the face of others' expectations and to feel upset and heartbroken that I can't achieve happiness like they do. #Vent #MentalHealth #MentalHealthMatters #YouAreNotAlone #ItsOkayToStruggle #SelfCompassion #EmotionalHealing #BeKindToYourself

We often discuss compassion, empathy, and kindness in the context of teamwork. But what we don’t always consider is how to be kind to ourselves. Back in 2022, I spoke to @mscottford and @andreagoulet for the @legacycoderocks podcast , about why it’s so important to be compassionate to ourselves… and I shared some techniques on how to achieve this.

Legacy Code Rocks: Self-Compassion with Clare Sudbery

We frequently discuss compassion, empathy, and kindness on this podcast. What we rarely focus on, however, is being kind and compassionate to ourselves.   Today we talk with Clare Sudbery.

Clare tells why it is so important to be compassionate to ourselves and shares with us some techniques on how to achieve this.  When you finish listening to the episode, connect with Clare on Twitter and dive deeper into the subject of empathy in tech by joining our new community.  Mentioned in this episode: Clare on Twitter at Making Tech Better Podcast at Made Tech Academy at   Self-Compassion by Dr. Kristin Neff at Empathy in Tech at  

Most of the “truths” we carry from trauma weren’t truths at all—they were someone else’s pain we internalized.

If you’re ready to change your perspective and start seeing the power, progress, and beauty already in your story, go listen to the latest episode. This shift could change everything. 💛

Usein iltaisin istun työhuoneella ikkuna auki, kynttilöiden valossa, kuunnellen mustarastaan laulua ja tarkastellen päivän työn tuloksia. Tämä pieni apina loistaen valoa muistuttaa minua aina ihmisen olevaisuudesta; kuinka tavoittelemme maallista mainetta ja materiaa, unohtaen niin helposti olla tässä hetkessä läsnä; avoimena ja nöyrin mielin, silti ylpeänä omasta itsestään ja eläen itsensä näköistä elämää.

Kultainen apina symbolisoi minulle ilkikurisuutta, myös liiallista itsetietoisuutta ja jopa julkeutta. Katsellen tuota pientä kitschimäistä otusta, maadoitan itseni tähän hetkeen ja asiat saavat oman paikkansa ja arvonsa; Me ihmiset olemme aikamoisia kultaisia apinoita. Sen tiedostaen on helpompi olla ihan vain oma itsensä, omine haavoittuvuuksineen, vajavaisuuksineen ja vahvuuksineen.
Ihanaa ja levollista iltaa juuri Sinulle! Tässä ja Nyt.
