Allure (magazine) July 2010

Topic - "39 Confidence Boosters."

I will not list all 39 only those I would think would be appropriate for those of us who face the "great unwashed" as who we are.

Accept praise (or constructive criticism - moi)
Forget stereotypes
Improve your complexion (proper foundation is one of the six basics)
Stop apologizing
Imagine success (passing =D> )
Straighten up (stomach in, shoulders back, boobs out, smile)
Brighten up ( smile dammit smile! work on whiter teeth!)
Assume people like you! (its called having confidence and smile)
Know your positive assets and accentuate it (them).
Clean out your purse
Make eye contact
Put on lipstick - really?! Of course!!! current style is bright colors
Stop slouching = straighten up = be proud of your "gift!"
Get physical -- in this case, gentle touching of someone. It is amazing what the response is when you reach out and gently touch someone on the arm.

It is a learning process until it become natural.

Virginia,
Those all are lovely words to live by and seems that we could not go wrong using them in our daily lives, thanks. :)
Warm Regards,
Jamie
