Well done to Rebel Wilson for winning Cosmopolitan's Ultimate Woman of the Year! Great to see this go to a woman who knows that inner beauty is worth 100 times more than appearances.
Boost of the Day #102: Meryl Streep
I saw this below post on Facebook from Fight For Equality today and it gave me a much needed Monday Motivation boost! Meryl Streep - this is her on her way home from an audition for King Kong where she was told she was too "ugly" for the part. This was a pivotal moment for the young … Continue reading Boost of the Day #102: Meryl Streep
Boost of the Day #67: Perfectionism, by Julia Roberts
Perfection is a disease of a nation. We overlay our faces with tons of make-up. We get botoxs and even starve ourselves to become that perfect size. We try to fix something but you can't fix what you can't see. It's the soul that needs the surgery. It's time that we take a stand. How … Continue reading Boost of the Day #67: Perfectionism, by Julia Roberts
Boost of the Day #66: An amazing message from Scarlett Johansson
Behind the glamor, behind the make up, behind all those flashy clothes, there's an ordinary girl who just happens to have an extra ordinary job. I have seen young girls follow celebrities and try to be one of them. They try to attain perfection, have the perfect body, perfect skin tone. They aren’t fully aware … Continue reading Boost of the Day #66: An amazing message from Scarlett Johansson
Boost of the Day #61: If at first you don’t succeed…
Loving this quote from Michael Jordan, standing proud about the fact he's failed over and over during his life. It's funny to hear statements like this from such a successful athlete, which is exactly why it's so brilliant to take in. If you have low self-esteem, I'm betting you hate to fail. It might make you lose … Continue reading Boost of the Day #61: If at first you don’t succeed…
Boost of the day #30: Air of mystery
I've mentioned before that attention seeking is often a big sign of low self-esteem. Emma Watson is such a wonderful role model for young women - she is successful, classy and intelligent. Her success comes from her ability to act, now through attention seeking 'Miley Cyrus/Kim Kardashian' methods. An air of mystery is a great … Continue reading Boost of the day #30: Air of mystery
Boost of the day #23: feeling sheepish?
One way to corrode your self-esteem is to believe that you should be like everyone else. On some level, you are probably thinking that what you really are is not good enough. So you become a sheep. You pretend to like the same music as your friends, to enjoy the same movies, to share the same … Continue reading Boost of the day #23: feeling sheepish?
Boost of the day #21
Another excellent example of a celebrity using their powers for good and spreading the word that... It's okay to be different - be yourself. Don't compare yourself to others, you're beautiful in your own way. Don't waste the one thing that makes you unique: YOU. Embrace being you. Thanks Miranda!
