Why do I feel this way????

I am a person who firmly believes that the way you look has alot of influence on how you feel. I am not talking about weight, etc. I am talking about the way you take care of yourself. Do you leave your home with your hair undone, do you go about your day and don't even bother getting rid of eye crust? Is your shirt so stained you can't even take your sweater off? The way you take care of you WILL be reflected in your attitude.

Here are some things you can do to make yourself feel better about YOU. Doing some of these things may even motivate you to make other changes in your lifestyle. You can't expect others to see you in a different light when you yourself don't.

Hygiene - Very important. Make sure you wear deodorant. There is nothing yuckier than a girl with BO. A little perfume or body spray after a shower goes a long way as well. Not only will this help around others, but you will feel good about you too.

Hair - Doing your hair everyday will allow you to see yourself put together. If you are like me, not having enough time to do your hair, then look for a hairstyle that caters to that. There is no reason for ratty hair.

Face - I like wearing makeup. I think it allows me to feel feminine and pretty. I go all out when it comes to makeup. You don't have to. A little bit of mascara, blush and lipgloss can go a long way.

Clothing - I am not saying you have to go out and buy expensive clothing. Not at all. I have seen people on a budget that look great. Take pride in what you wear. Your appearance says alot about you.

Sometimes we hurt our own self esteem when we don't take care of ourselves. We begin to see ourselves in such a negative way which hinders us from moving forward and getting motivated. Challenge yourself to look better so that you can feel better. There was a time when I didn't really care about my appearance. I wore whatever and looked not so great. One day it hit me. I am worth so much more than I think of myself to be worth. I deserve the best in life and that includes looking my best. When I had that eye opening moment I realized that I had to take care of myself better. It is such a confidence booster and you will feel better the moment you start. Try it. You won't be disappointed!!!
