You Don't Need Permission

3 Comments

You don't need anyone's permission to be the beautiful, radiant, confident women that you are. You don't need anyone outside of you to tell you it's OK to do anything. A beautiful woman walks radiantly through a field of grass with a scarf trailing behind.We all have times when we feel like I'm just not sure if I can do this, or Who am I to think that I can be like that?

It seems like such a stretch to think of ourselves as strong enough, or good enough, or just enough in general to aspire to actually be or do something outside of our comfort zone.

I felt this so many times when I was single, it was like an old friend.

Who you do think you are that he would choose you?

Why would he want to commit to you?

What could you possibly have to offer him that would make him want to be with you?

It was enough to squelch what little self-confidence and self-esteem I had managed to muster up, and once again I would find that I was looking outside of myself for someone to validate me. Someone to give me permission to be all that I knew deep down inside I really already was.Continue Reading

The Best Way to Build Confidence

A woman is dancing in the rain because of her confidence.
This one simple change will dramatically boost your confidence!

If it seems to you like everyone else has it all together, knowing just what to do to have a healthy relationship and making it look so easy in the process, while you're struggling along, feeling like there's something wrong with you, well, you're not alone.

I used to feel that way, too.  There always seemed to be someone who did relationships better than I did.

While I was constantly trying to figure someone out, trying to be the perfect girlfriend, figuring out whether I should try to give him some more space or show him just how excited I was about him, there was always someone I knew who had that amazing confidence about them and their particular relationship.

Just confidently being in it, seeing where it went and not putting all their focus and time and energy in it, just being normal about it.

And oh how I would envy her. I wanted to be that nonchalant, too.Continue Reading

Radiant, Confident, Beautiful YOU! Part 2

Beautiful, confident woman laying in the grass smiling.
Here's how you get there.

I’m guessing you might be wondering just how we get to that place where you actually feel radiant, confident and beautiful.

It begins by asking yourself some basic questions that you may not have thought about before.

Like what do you like to do?

I mean, what do you really like to do. Not what you like to do because you think a guy will like you if you like to do it.

What would you choose to do with your time if there were no men in the world?

Sometimes it helps to think about what you don’t think you can do or have been told you can’t do.

Especially what you’ve been told you can’t do.Continue Reading

Radiant, Confident, Beautiful YOU! Part 1

A beaufiul, confident, radiant woman with her arms spread wide looking up into the sky, with the sun behind her.
It's time to start living the way you were meant to!

I’ve got some breaking news for you; you don’t need a guy to live your life.

You don’t need a guy to have a world to fit into. You don’t need a guy to feel like you can start living. It’s what you choose to make of it.

You can keep waiting, hoping for the right guy to hurry up and come along and rescue you from your current life because you think it’s easier to find yourself in someone else’s ready-made life than make one of your own.

But the price you pay for that is your self-esteem, your worth, your confidence, your you.

Did someone forget to tell you that you can be anything you want to be? You can! You can do anything, be anything, achieve anything, if you believe in yourself that you can.

Hear me on this one.

The only reason that you can’t do something is because you don’t believe you can! Do you get that?Continue Reading

It Begins With You!

You have it all in you!

If you’re anything like me, you know what it’s like to always be looking for that elusive secret.

Trying to figure out what you’re missing to finally get it right. To finally find and be found by the guy that would be the right one for you.

Or at least the guy who would be the right guy to enjoy a real relationship with.

Because like you probably are, I was so tired of finding myself in dead-end relationships over and over again. It took me a long time, too, to finally attract the right kind of guy into my life. No matter how many books I’d read or advice columns I’d found.

In looking back, I realize that what was eluding me was simpler than anything I was making it out to be.Continue Reading
