Guys can I just say while thinking of all these things that could be what you're thinking I was very emotionally distressed and saddened to think that not only me, but almost every girl out there would be feeling for sure more than one of these negative things
It's sad how society has really made girls have more things to be guilty, saddened, embarrassed and even envious about.
We should be encouraging each other to be ourselves, the best version of ourselves, and to be unique in all aspects of our lives, despite our different situations.
My goal for everything I do in life and when I started this book was to simply HELP OTHER PEOPLE
I am a selfless person. I honestly see too many girls who are insecure or who don't feel like they're ever good enough and wouldn't even imagine themselves as the most powerful, famous, loved woman in the world.
It saddens me because, if only you all knew that, YOU ARE ALL CAPABLE OF THAT!!
Self love is something I want everyone to feel, I want everyone to love themselves, because if we don't love ourselves, how can we cope with life?? And how can we expect others to love us??
You don't even have to love yourself because you're the best woman in the world, but love yourself because of all your special unique qualities that stand out from everyone and the little good things and even the bad things that are unique to you.
Lucky for you girls, I'm here to help you achieve that!!
I'm here to provide you with all the advice, extra resources, tips and personal experiences that can help you succeed in whatever areas you are having trouble and feel insecure in!! I'm here to make sure you feel like you can do anything, and that you can be the best version of you!! And most importantly, love who you truly are!!
In this century we are more than capable of being the best versions of ourselves, we have all the tools and resources to do so!!
Most problems can be fixed nowadays, whether physically, mentally or socially!!
There are going to be quite a lot of different chapters for different things addressing all of the dot points above, and even more!!!
Please comment here what kinds of things you would like advice on, or are insecure about!!!
I hope you guys can gain from the upcoming chapters!!! I want nothing but for all you girls reading, to love yourselves
And just as importantly, to love each other and encourage each other to do great things and to be ourselves!!!
Until next time
Stay Pretty
