Yesterday, I had a very realistic conversation that I would like to share with you all. Someone asked me "How do you do it!" I didn't quite understand her blatant statement. As we traveled further into conversation, she was asking me, 'How did I gain confidence within myself?" I explained to her in order to find happiness it all starts within you, not other people. YOU!
You have to be the one to remind yourself you are beautiful, you are kind, you are smart, you're everything you have ever dreamed. Don't be the girl who depends on others to determine your worth in ones self. It wasn't easy, I once upon a time used to be the person who depended on others approval. I felt if I didn't look like her, I was ugly or if I didn't dress like that, I couldn't dress. As, I grew older I didn't understand the values of being myself. Many years, I used to be the girl who wanted to follow into the crowds and do what everybody else was doing reaching the age of sixteen. I had to understand following the crowds wasn't cute. It made me regular just like them. I wasn't the person I am now. Explaining to her, in order to "do it" you have to be able to let somethings go not everything needs to be followed. Stop trying to put on this image you have to be naked all the time for attention or you have to wear your hair in a certain style or you have to wear loads of makeup on your face to be "pretty". I'm not saying wearing revealing clothing is bad because its not bad. Its good to have confidence in yourself where you are proud to show your skin that's beautiful, but wear it because your not ashamed too. Wear makeup because you like makeup not because you look at the fact that everybody approves of you in makeup. Do it because its what you like! Don't worry about how those other girls look. YOU are what matters! Stop letting the negative comments of others bring you down. No matter your shape, size or looks your beautiful. Stop trying to add to yourself to gain attention. Being yourself is what deems you worthy of attention, not being somebody your not. If you like it, do it. Wear it. Style it. Make it you! So again when you ask, "How do you do it?" You remember that it is OK because its what you like.
