ANTI-CAPITALIST AFFIRMATIONS

  • i am allowed to spend my time creating things, even if they are not beautiful.
  • there is no such thing as a “real Job”. all forms of work are real and vlid.
  • there is nothing that i need to accomplish to be worthy. i am already worthy.
  • doing nothing ls good for my soul.
  • i am not deflined by what I produce.
  • my worth cannot be measured by my paycheck, my job title, or a list of professional or academic achievements.
  • i də not need to monetize my hobbles, It is enough to spend time doing something i love.
  • | will not let society decide what success looks like. I can define what successful life looks like for me.

    Feel that. Girlfriend made candles as a hobby. I took them to work. Coworkers tried to buy them. Skip ahead a year later and she’s got an inventory of nearly 200 candles and a bunch of scents and doing shows and making money. Still in the red overall, but seeing people’s eyes light up when they smell them is better than any profit.

      Yep. And you know what? If you weren’t selling them and just doing it for fun you’d still be in red. So it’s not something to worry about.
