Dance like you're stamping on a human face forever, love like you've been in a serious car crash that minced the front of your brain, stab like no one can arrest you, and live like there's no such thing as God.
As you develop, the people around you also develop. As you progress, the world progresses with you to a certain degree.
Once you feel nice about yourself, you have planted the first seed to develop self-confidence.
