How to deal with feelings of inadequacy or feeling
like I'm not good enough.
In this world, we've been counseled
by the Twelve Apostles and the Prophet
to be careful about the social media, the internet, the news,
all of these perceptions that we have of the world.
And part of that is because of the damage
it can do to ourselves.
When I'm on social media, I'm not
looking at people's worst, I'm looking at people's best.
I'm not seeing what's behind the camera,
so it's really easy for me to compare my weaknesses
to these strengths that I see or what
I think are these strengths.
And it's really easy for me to say,
"You know what, today I didn't make a meal out of scratch."
I may have gone out to eat today, but that's OK.
My best every day is going to be different,
and our--everyone's best is going to be different.
And that's OK.
It's OK to be different.
It's OK to not need the world's approval.
It's because ultimately what matters
is that our Heavenly Father really is the only one that
needs to approve of us.
And it's not even that He's going
to stand there and disapprove of us,
but He's going to push us in the right direction.
And so if we worry or if we concentrate more
on pleasing the Lord and being someone that He can be proud of
and that He knows that we can be,
then those feelings of inadequacy
will eventually melt away, and we
will become stronger and more comfortable in who
we are as people.
