Mirror Mirror on the wall…boost your confidence before it FALLS!

Here's some daily BeauTea... Assess what you've got. Make a list of 6 qualities you like about yourself—half should be physical features—then rank them by what you deem the most appealing. Carry the list in your purse to remind yourself that you offer a full package of inner and outer beauty. Play up your favorite physical feature(s).

Self confidence is the difference between feeling unstoppable and feeling scared out of your wits. Your perception of yourself has an enormous impact on how others perceive you. Perception is reality — the more self confidence you have, the more likely it is you’ll succeed. 

Below are my top 5 strategies you can get the mental edge you need to reach your potential and build your self confidence:


1. Dress Sharp. Although clothes don’t make the man, they certainly affect the way he feels about himself. No one is more conscious of your physical appearance than you are. When you don’t look good, it changes the way you carry yourself and interact with other people. Use this to your advantage by taking care of your personal appearance.
2. Gratitude. When you focus too much on what you want, the mind creates reasons why you can’t have it. This leads you to dwell on your weaknesses. The best way to avoid this is consciously focusing on gratitude. Set aside time each day to mentally list everything you have to be grateful for. Recall your past successes, unique skills, loving relationships, and positive momentum. You’ll be amazed how much you have going for you and motivated to take that next step towards success.
3. Compliment other people. When we think negatively about ourselves, we often project that feeling on to others in the form of insults and gossip. To break this cycle of negativity, get in the habit of praising other people. Refuse to engage in backstabbing gossip and make an effort to compliment those around you. In the process, you’ll become well liked and build self confidence. By looking for the best in others, you indirectly bring out the best in yourself.
4. Work out. Along the same lines as personal appearance, physical fitness has a huge effect on self confidence. If you’re out of shape, you’ll feel insecure, unattractive, and less energetic. By working out, you improve your physical appearance, energize yourself, and accomplish something positive. Having the discipline to work out not only makes you feel better, it creates positive momentum that you can build on the rest of the day.
5. Focus on contribution. Too often we get caught up in our own desires. We focus too much on ourselves and not enough on the needs of other people. If you stop thinking about yourself and concentrate on the contribution you’re making to the rest of the world, you won’t worry as much about you own flaws. This will increase self confidence and allow you to contribute with maximum efficiency. The more you contribute to the world the more you’ll be rewarded with personal success and recognition.

Beyonce's 'Pretty Hurts' Song Hits Home

Yes... most of us would say that Beyonce is beautiful and that she doesn't need to change or enhance one thing about herself. On the other hand, we're not in her shoes and have no idea what she may have to face (critics, haters, media, etc.) to remain 'beautiful' in everyone's eyes. I'm pretty sure it's a STRUGGLE and at the end of the day she hurts too! As a beauty and skincare expert and educator, I want to personally take my hat off to her for creating such an inspirational song, BRAVO Mrs. Carter! 

This song gives light to what every female may suffer from on a daily basis no matter what size you are or how you look…people will ALWAYS hate on you. Even if you're a pageant queen or a regular girl next door, at some point in our lives we all suffer to fit what we are told is the perfect image. We all live in a society that determines how we look, what’s considered beautiful or acceptable and tolerable all through media. Everyday there are women all over the world killing themselves to look the part without recognizing we should stop giving others the power to determine how we look. It’s been proven, pretty in fact does hurt and perfection is the disease of a nation.

Overall, the take away to this post is that you’re beautiful the way you are. Here's an excerpt from the song that 'hit home' for me:

'Pretty hurts'
Shine the light on whatever's worse,
Tryna fix something, but you can't fix what you can't see. It's the soul that needs the surgery. Ain't no doctor or therapeutic that can take the pain away, the pain's inside and nobody frees you from your body. Plastic smiles and denial can only take you so far and you break when the faithless sign leaves you in the dark. You left a shattered mirror and the shards of a beautiful girl.
