How often, as women, do we look in the mirror and never see the fairest of them all?
We say the mirror never lies. The mirror doesn’t lie, but we lie to the mirror.
Women look into the mirror and tell themselves how they don’t look, how they don’t feel, and what they see they are not. These words whether spoken out loud or silently affect our mental and emotional health. Our minds are a great source of health to our bodies but our mental words affect our whole being.
What are you saying to yourself today?
What we tell ourselves is often what we become. Words like “You’re not as young as you used to be”, “Who is going to love you now?”, “You can’t do that”, “You’re not good enough” and more changes the way we see ourselves and view the world around us. It also makes us think that’s how others see and accept us.
How sad to think we reduce our worth ourselves more than others. Change your view of yourself by changing the words you use to more positive and honest ones like, “You are worth more than you believe”, “You can do anything you are willing to work for”, “Accept yourself before anyone else does” and more.
Believe me, when you change what you are telling yourself, you will feel treasured, you will walk with confidence, and enjoy your life more. The world around you will see this too and love having you in their space too.
And what if others put me down with their words?
Forgive them and leave them behind. Women don’t realize it how often we judge each other to make us feel better about ourselves. However, it actually makes us judge ourselves more and in turn, damages our own mental health. Don’t be average and judge. Be extraordinary and uplift!
Our time on earth and in this life is so short. Why do we waste it on creating more negativity and anxiety? The world is already in dire straits. Imagine if every woman embraces their image in the mirror and encourages the next woman to do the same every day, how the world would change.
Women, realize that you are a powerful being on this earth, and all people around you, need our nurturing and talents to uplift and create a better tomorrow. Women, to become a superpower on earth, you have to become your own superpower for you.
How do you do this? Check-in with yourself on a regular basis. Tell yourself all the good things that form your being, the good things you have to offer to others, and the good things you still want to learn.
Not sure what the good things are? Don’t be afraid to ask others what qualities they appreciate and love about you. We don’t see what others see. Change your perspective on yourself and you will change your perspective of others.
