Just Enough Delusion

When the going gets tough, I need just enough self-delusion to keep going :')

Connie on Ko-fi

[3-panel borderless comic about being your own toughest critic. Panel 1: Girl with a bun looks at her reflection in a bathroom mirror, discouraged, while her reflection gives the opposite of a pep talk - "You're not good enough and never will be...maybe you should just give up." Panel 2: Girl reacts defensively, pointing at the reflection with emphasis - "I'll have you know, it's going JUST FINE!" Panel 3: Girl walks off-frame with an indignant "Hmph." Heading in bold text: "When you are your own toughest critic, but self-delusion is still strong." By Connie Sun, cartoonconnie, 2023.]

The mirror is the deluded one in this case, Connie. You are good enough. Heck, you're internationally famous! I know this, I'm in Europe.
Remind that mirror how fragile it is; much more fragile than you are. Besides, we all know mirrors show things the reverse of how they really are.
