They say that a woman’s greatest enemy is herself, and they’re probably right. However, the truth is that many of us, in the pursuit of perfection in all areas of life, can be too demanding of ourselves, and that isn’t always a good thing. Here, you’ll find a list of 13 things that you should stop doing now to help improve your life.


1. Saying sorry all the time

It’s been proven that women say the word “sorry” much more often than men do. It’s not necessary to say the word “sorry” if you want to split the bill in a restaurant or if you don’t want to go out with your partner one night. You have the right to do what you feel is right for you. As long as you’re not hurting anybody, saying “sorry” all the time isn’t necessary. Give it a try!



2. Saying yes to everything

If all you want to do is get into bed and watch a movie, then you don’t have to go to a cafe with your friends. Sometimes, women say “yes” to not offend anybody or to get along with everybody. But the most important thing is to be happy with yourself.


3. Saying “no” to yourself




Sometimes, insecurity or low self-esteem can make you feel like you can’t do something, so you decide not to try. It’s also important for you to give yourself permission to do crazy things. Leave the “good girls don’t go out at night” nonsense to your great grandma.



4. Thinking that food is your enemy




Magazines, TV, and advertising in general have filled our heads with ideas about what is beautiful and what isn’t. That’s when food becomes a woman’s enemy because it causes us to gain weight, which we can’t allow under any circumstances. Don’t let it make you feel bad for eating an ice cream or a delicious pasta dish. Enjoy it! As long as you don’t overindulge, there’s nothing to feel bad about.



5. Criticizing your body (out loud or inside your own head)

You’ve probably looked in the mirror before and thought to yourself “I look terrible,” “I’m so fat,” etc. Stop doing this! You run the risk of ending up really believing this, thereby requiring psychological treatment.



6. Feeling bad when you experience success at work




Never doubt whether you deserve your success or not. Value your accomplishments and feel proud of yourself.



7. Removing tags of yourself from photos, in which you don’t like how you look

You don’t want to always have to control your appearance. Accept yourself how you are and you’ll become more sure of yourself, not because of how you look on the outside, but because of what really matters.



8. Comparing your real life to the virtual life of somebody else





Obsessing over life online can be very stressful, especially if you obsess over the life of somebody else. It’s been shown that Facebook addiction goes hand-in-hand with low self-esteem. When you feel like you’re spending more time than normal looking at somebody else’s photos, comments, or posts, it’s time to turn off the computer or cell phone and start living in the moment. Read a good book, draw something, call and chat with a friend or family member, or simply get out and enjoy your own reality.



9. Wearing heels every day




Heels look great, but you don’t have to wear them every day. It’s also good to feel comfortable. There are other kinds of shoes that look great and won’t destroy your feet.



10. Trying to be “zen”

While there are those who can pull it off, you don’t have to if it isn’t who you are. It’s all about being yourself, and if you occasionally get stressed, breathe, work out, or do something you like to feel calm again.




11. Having fear of being called “crazy”




The most common way to discredit a woman’s emotions is by calling them “crazy.” At the end of the day, as the saying goes, “we’re all a little bit crazy.”



12. Looking for medical solutions online

Having a bad headache doesn’t mean you have a brain tumor. Don’t look for a doctor online. If you’re genuinely worried about something, look for a real one.



13. Feeling bad because your life doesn’t resemble a Pinterest profile

Not all women were born experts in handicrafts. It’s great that you want to redecorate your home. But don’t feel bad if it doesn’t look exactly the same as the photos you saw. You need to separate yourself from the world of aspirations and do things your way.
