True Beauty is Confidence
/She is Confident.
When I created True Beauty Movement, it was important to me that we give you all tangible things you can do to cultivate your positive body image and character instead of just fluffy words. All the time, we hear "Be confident. Be you!" However, why and how is a True Beauty confident? There has to be ways we can develop confidence... it doesn't just happen magically.
Confidence is the key to fueling a True Beauty's light. She knows who she is, what her purpose is, and what makes her different. She knows that there is a unique calling on her life that only she can fulfill and she stays in her lane - she enjoys her given mission and finds power when she steps into that.
We've created a YouTube series dedicated to growing confidence, click here!
Today, we're also providing you with 3 Strategies for Growing Confidence. Let us know what you think.
- Comparison is the thief of joy. When the temptations come to compare your physical or true beauty to someone else's - list three things in your head that you love about yourself. We grow by building ourself and others up, not by tearing them down.
- Create an inner circle of positivity! Every True Beauty needs someone she can go to and use to help her see what she can't. Often others see the best in us that we are blind to. Their outside perspective allows us to see the beauty we radiate to others. This positive inner circle is there for you at your highest highs and lowest lows... they are an extension of you. We were never created to be alone and this team is a sounding board for life.
- Fold a piece of paper in half. Get all your negative thoughts about yourself out on paper. Get them out of your pretty little mind. Write them all on the left side of the paper. On the right side of the paper... write down the truth about those feelings. For example, on the left: "I have huge thighs that are ugly".... on the right: "I have powerful legs that allow me to run and they are beautiful exactly as they are."
It is my genuine hope that these strategies not only empower you but also inspire you to be intentional about growing confidence. I believe in you and I'm cheering you on. I can't wait to hear how these 3 strategies and our YouTube series empower you!
