@@ste_channel3591 everyone does not like tea or may not even like the tea you drink so just be the best version of you. Porridge is sort of similar to Grits it’s a breakfast/lunch meal
At 29 I decided I wanted a new life so I quit my corporate job, enrolled in grad school and started my journey. I’m 31 now and I still haven’t figured out what I want lol but I know I for sure that an inauthentic life is NOT it!! ❤️❤️
I always remembered this quote and it helps to keep me calm, cool, and collective-“those who anger you conquer you”. No one will conquer me, ever again
Omg I love this quote! This is basically what I was trying to say but couldn’t find the right words! But yes trust me I have a learned to master my emotional intelligence because I will never allow another person to control me again 🗣🗣🗣🗣
I live by this too. Am always calm and people look at me and think am rude or not grasping whats going on. 😂😂😂 when in reality am not letting them conquer me.
I'm 39 and I haven't cared whether people liked me since I was 12. It was revelation from very early on and I've lived my life with less stress than I see other people experiencing. I was always called different and different is not always a bad thing. Different is peaceful and quite a cool place to be. I have never consulted anyone about decisions I wanted to make. People can be so negative. It takes a very thick skin not to care but it's something that must be learned from very early on. I have been called ugly and I have been called beautiful. I have been called fat and I have been called too skinny. I don't absorb any of it because who asked them? Not me.
Love this video! I'm a 34 year old single mom and a full-time government employee. I decided to relaunch a business I started when I was 20 years old and went back to college to finally get my degree. I can't believe I'm finally graduating after nearly 20 years lol. It's NEVER too late. When I turned 34, I vowed to stop caring what people thought about me and finally started living life ON MY TERMS.
Tap tap...is this me? I’m 34, a single mom and I work full time for the federal government. It didn’t take me until now to get my degree but BOY did I struggle with getting my bachelors and finally went on to finishing my masters. I WOULD LOVE to dedicate some time to my business . I’m unsure and worried it will fail. I’m a horrible risk taker I go with the guarantee and the guarantee will forever keep you broke. Sure I live decent and I thank God for it but I want financial freedom.
listened while I drove to work and this was so well received. I wish I had this peace of mind in my 20s instead of my 40s..my life would be so different. However ...where i am I'm happy and that is to be valued
I definitely understand where you’re coming from I often times wish that I learned this much earlier but I’m so grateful for the experiences and the lessons that I’ve learned.
I was going to leave the exact same comment! I am in my 40’s as well and I wish I had this peace in my 20’s. So proud of Octavia for figuring this out early...
**NOBODY cares.** literally. If you’re struggling with anxiety just remember that. I was so nervous about finally starting a TH-cam channel and when I finally posted my first video I realized that no one actually cares 😂. It’s sad but kind of freeing lol. Don’t let fears of what ppl will think stop you from doing the things you want to do. Thanks for sharing Octavia! ❤️
The likes and dislikes analogy also relates to Instagram as well. Post your pictures because YOU know you look good. It doesn't matter if you don't get enough likes or lose a following. The ones who don't stick around wasn't genuine to begin with so why shrink yourself for applauds. Wonderful video !
Yeah, I needed this video. I am 27 and I feel stuck terribly stuck in life. Which is sad because I really am not! I haven't even been able to indulge in things I like including TH-cam and videos just wind down time. Just stuck in my job and hours... I can't wait for my next step. I feel it coming!
Oh ladies I can relate to this all too well ! I’m not sure if you guys are able to see the difference from when I was working a stressful 9-to-5 job versus now. I felt like I was being drained but I also know it’s not easy to just pick up and leave a job that is basically sustaining you . I literally prayed long and hard to be freed.
27 here too! Been working on myself. Covid really changed where I thought my life was going but I’m taking it a day at a time. All that you need to know is that YOU come first! Always!
Love it!! Your feminine energy is fully loaded. ❤❤ When we stop caring about what people think about us, we can start living life on our terms. Understanding who we truly are and what truly matters in life, everything else will fall into place.
I needed this more than I knew. I turn 27 tomorrow 8/12 and I have a very pessimistic mindset that I need to work on. I never focus on my present only things I haven't accomplished not realizing I have accomplished so much. Thank you so much for this video 💖
Wow, wow, after seeing this video I don't feel guilty about this weekend. Will stop being so hard on myself. Its ok to not be perfect. Thank you.... Love from South Africa
Exactly. Be okay with people not liking you. So true .. as long as you’re happy that’s what matters really🤍 also, do what you wanna do and what you think it’s right!!!! Don’t ask for people’s opinions. 😘
Incase anyone needs a breakdown of this video 😘. 1. Nobody really cares 2. Stop asking for people's opinions and do what you wanna do 3. Develop thick skin a.k.a desensitize yourself 4. Protect your energy 5. Understand that you cannot please everyone 6. Understand that you are not perfect and cannot be, so mistakes are welcomed. 7. Stop reading negative comments and reviews, and feeding into it 8. Work on your emotional intelligence 9. Focus on the positivity and leave the negativity 10. Get to know yourself and appreciate you.
I try not to care how people think about me, but it’s hard not to. People are mean and will make you feel bad about yourself, for no reason. I have depression and feel so behind in life. I just don’t have the motivation to do a lot of things at times. It’s draining. But watching these videos helps to motivate me and push me to keep going forward.
Hey I really needed this video. I'm in college and in a room of four and sometimes when they are talking , I just feel like they are talking about me. But this video has taught me not to give a damn.
I needed this! I am 26 also and have been in the process of elevating my life. Sometimes I battle with the fact that not everyone will like me but I realize that it has helped me to weed out ppl who most likely weren’t meant to be apart of my journey anyway.
Thanks 🙏🏾 for this video. I struggled with being liked from teenage years until my late thirties or early forties. I’d been through bullying and rejection. Even in dating I’d been rejected too. Around various groups of people I knew as friends or acquaintances I was so worked up why certain people who didn’t know me were so horrible towards me. I wanted to fit in badly via social media and in person. Then a friend told me “not everyone is gonna like you. Be ok 👍 with that.” It’s so true. I moved on and eventually deleted social media. I accept that not every man will find me attractive. Not everyone wants me as a friend. Not everyone would invite me to their wedding or gatherings. I go where I’m appreciated
Love this! I remember Jackie Aina saying something like she would post a 20 min video and like the second she posted she'd have all these dislikes, needless to say there's people who will always dislike your videos for no reason at all, even before watching like that is their job in life haha pretty sad
I found your channel a little while ago. Recently i have been struggling with not feeling pretty or like my normal self. You have really helped me with living my best care free life! Keep shining!! ❤️
I hate to openly admit I never comment on your videos but I definitely do alwaysssss like them. I especially enjoyed this one. I love the growth! The self love , the confidence, and the way you carry yourself with a level head is beautiful. I hope this video reaches all the wonderful beings out there that need it . This truly made my heart smile. Keep it up beautiful ❤️ sending love from Los Angeles 😘
Could not agree more about the coming to terms with "Not everybody is going to like you and that's okay" and to stop asking people for their opinions! It truly doesn't matter at the end of the day and you should never sacrifice who you are for others! Loved this video girl and glad you're doing better! Sending lot's of love to everybody! 🙏🏻💞
These tips are so authentic and You’re so right we are so much stronger than we think. Everything we need lives on the inside of us! Sending love God bless ♥️
Thank you for sharing and being vulnerable. I’ve learned that a long time ago we not for everyone, and not everyone will like us. My energy is not for everyone and I rather protect that.
Loved the tip about not asking people for their opinions! That clip was so true. I tend to ask people for their opinions on my personal decisions sometimes and realize even when they do provide their opinions, 10/10 it is still up to me to decide.
The fact that no matter what you do, is not enough for most people!!... is so unbelievable!! The fact that you are a nice person, and you think that, that's the way you have to be, to be accepted. You are wrong!! And the fact that you gotta accept that, HURTS!! BUT DO NOT STOP BEING WHO YOU ARE!!,... WHICH IS BEING A NICE PERSON!! DO NOT CHANGE THAT FOR NOBODY AND OR SITUATIONS!!
So BEAUTIFUL ( inside & out). This was so eloquently stated. You are wise beyond your years in the GREATEST way. I learned what you are mastering at 26 later on in life. So, by the time you get to my age, you will be SUPER. By the way, wish I saw this video in my early 20s, I could have by passed so many things. AWESOME video
@@OctaviaB So, sorry you had to go through what you went through in your early 20s. Thank God you're here now. You are still at a very pivotal point in your 20s , so it's AWESOME that you have learned what you have so far.
Love the accent. God’s glory is on you. My babe is glowing. Told my 10 year old girl to start watching one video of yours everyday. She said ‘Mommy she’s so beautiful’ 🥰🥰🥰
I am jamaican just like you.... please ignore negative comment.... God is good and he will continue to bless you.... I look forward to your video's weekly.... ♥️
Hi Octavia, I cry so much throughout this video because literally this video is about me. Everything that you Mention am struggling with and because of my struggles I don’t have friends.Thank you so much for your Video it helps me a lot to know am not the only one.
@@OctaviaB Thank you so much. I want to ask you this question but am so nervous. I just started my own channel, I don’t have much content there yet but I would be so happy if you like and Subscribe to my Channel? I had a lot of doubts starting my Channel but and going for it.
Thanks you so much for sharing. I love this because I was too much for myself and Opinion of every damn person. And pleasing everyone which’s killed me everyday. Watching this video free thanks you so much❤️❤️
I have been on my self love journey for a couple months now! It's so important to make yourself a priority ✨ ITS OK to be selfish sometimes for your own health & well being 💪🏼🙌🏼 Love this video 💖 thank you so much for sharing!
I'm watching this and im like yo.... I'm listening to myself. I'm happy I'm past this and I know it's a daily practice for me but I'm grateful for you sharing this video bc for me when I was in that dark spot I thought only I experienced it. xx
I'm currently in that space in my life where I feel something is missing, I know what it is and now really figuring out my next steps. I work in corporate and have been since forever! I'm so ready for change. Everyone has their own journey but the goal is the same... to be HAPPY!! ❤🙌🏽
I wish I could hit the like button a thousand times plus infinity! Well said young lady. I'm twice your age and it's amazing that I learn something every time I watch your videos!!! There is a force, (a power) behind you that no one can touch. Be well, be healthy and may God continue to bless you Octavia!!!!
I just found you on youtube and the one thing i already love about your video(s) (2nd one i watched) is you seriously open up and share the step by step process of your thoughts, not just give us a list of advice.
You are growing into such a beautiful woman! Of course you are beautiful outside but your inner growth is so beautiful to witness! God bless you and never stop growing! 💕
I literally glanced at that book sitting on my bookshelf this morning. I read it a few years ago. It’s so matter of fact. It’s like ripping the bandage off and allowing yourself to heal. The Art of not giving a F... is a good read. You’ll walk away with thicker skin for sure. Great Video 💞
After watching part 1 and just stumble upon part 2 I am so happy.i never did subscribe and you probably thinking girl what are you waiting for.i am subscribing right now.those videos helped me so much and I want to thank you
Thank you! For this video I needed this solo much, I have a twelve year old and sometimes when she tells me of her issues I cry inside and then talk to her and just now when I started watching this video I had to call her because some of this was for her and all of this was for me...thanks Octavia..you rock!!!!
All well said and well received in this video.. You continue to inspire me. I have always been very optimistic for others but pessimistic when it comes to getting me together. I've started making positive changes to improve myself.
You’re becoming my therapist lol. I’m a new subscriber and I just want to let you know how inspirational you are. Sending you so much light and love ❤️
thank you so much for this .... like am in the same PAGE am trying to get up ...am 19 ...i really needed all this thanks alot ... the part one actually u said like everything am going through ...i felt like ur life is my current life ....
That’s why you are one of MY FAVE TH-cam CONTENT CREATOR(s)! 💞 Your transparency and genuine outlook on never apologizing for who you are is truly AMAZING! Keep being AWESOME, GORGEOUS, AND STRONG - QUEEN 👑 A MILLION AND ONE BLESSINGS TO YOU! 😍🙏🏼
Thank you so much baby girl honestly this is what I needed to hear I'm 24 but I'm going through the same thing but after hearing all these things you said I feel so relieved and happy thank you so so much and you got a new subscriber today
I'm starting to change my life too & octavia Inspired me 😭❤️❤️ Subscribing to similar women like her is so refreshing❤️ Now i'm starting youtube as well! Best of luck ladies in your journey🥰🥰🥰🌹
That video definitely impacted the way I look at things. I've watched it like 3 times just to reiterate the points to my self. I really appreciate this video and I am confidently taking on my healing journey 😌
Octavia B, such a great video..new subbie!! I MUST SAY EVERY SINGLE VIDEO I HAVE SEEN SO FAR OF YOURS, I LOVE IT..A TRUE DEFINITION OF A CLASSY LADY...JUST LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT YOUR CONTENT! LEARNT ALOT FROM THIS VIDEO. THANK YOU SO MUCH! KEEP DOING YOUR THING GIRL❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
And that’s on THAT 💁🏽♀️💕✨, this video came in perfect timing! I’ve struggled with similar things that you’re mentioning and it’s SO good to hear someone else speak on it especially using the platform that you have! You’re one of my top fav TH-camrs
I heard this today “ you are not gonna be everyone’s cup of tea so be the best bowl of porridge you can be”

I just found you on youtube and the one thing i already love about your video(s) (2nd one i watched) is you seriously open up and share the step by step process of your thoughts, not just give us a list of advice.
🤍🤍🤍🤍
You are growing into such a beautiful woman! Of course you are beautiful outside but your inner growth is so beautiful to witness! God bless you and never stop growing! 💕
Oh thank you so much ❤️
@@OctaviaB I’m sorry I’m so late responding! You’re welcome Octavia! ☺️
I kept on smiling throughout this video! Wow I really needed to hear this!!! Thank you Octavia ❤️🙌🏾 sending love and piece your way.
Best video yet!! Spilling some serious wisdom😘😘👏🏾👏🏾
I literally glanced at that book sitting on my bookshelf this morning. I read it a few years ago. It’s so matter of fact. It’s like ripping the bandage off and allowing yourself to heal. The Art of not giving a F... is a good read. You’ll walk away with thicker skin for sure. Great Video 💞
