I’m Too Self-Absorbed To Watch The Super Bowl!
“Working on me is much more satisfying than glorifying those individuals who have already done the work!”
I just uploaded a short clip of me dancing, and it suddenly dawned on me that I have come a long way when it comes to my technique, femininity, and stamina in my dancing. And I can proudly attribute my upgraded skills to being consistent with the exercise, no matter what fleeting distractions manifest; not only with my dancing, but with my writing, strength training, and self-care rituals as well.
Being vain and self-absorbed is my form of self-care.
With that being said, I had no idea the Super Bowl was yesterday. If it wasn’t for one of my friends informing me that Rihanna was performing for the Halftime Show I wouldn’t have known. This morning I logged into Facebook and caught a glimpse of the buzz surrounding her performance. That’s when I knew I was going to take a 24-hour Sabbatical from social media today, because I have no interest in watching other people be great when I can cultivate my own greatness!
Why on earth would I watch Rihanna dance when it is a better benefit and payoff to me, my mental health, and my body to dance in my bedroom? Why would I spend even a few minutes of my time worshipping her when I can worship myself?
