Once again, I’ve been thwarted by the massive difference between my vision of the successful me and the me I’m currently stuck with.
I must work harder to achieve my goal of not seeking approval from those whose approval I’m not even sure is important to me.
Anyone can smile on their best day. I like to meet a man who can smile on his WORST.
Today, I would pick the person who made me feel warm, rather than the one who left me cold.
Because who wants to Fast Forward anyway? You might miss some of the good parts.
In my experience, there’s no secret to accomplishing almost any goal worth pursuing.
I’ve always thought my strengths were I’m smart, and I have a good sense of humor. I definitely struggle with feeling confident.
Like my dad, I have a Christmas party most years. I like to celebrate and see as many people as possible.
For a time in high school, I had glasses, braces, and a cast. I like to call this look ‘no date for homecoming.’
I’ve pretty much always been on a diet since I was born. And the women in my family struggle, so I find the less I think about food, in a way, the happier I am. In general, I think I eat less the less I think about it.
I get a delivery of a diet food during the week, which doesn’t mean that I don’t eat the occasional Krispy Kreme doughnut.
I didn’t grow up identifying with beauty. I grew up thinking I could be smart and funny – those are the things I got feedback on.
Honestly, I was such a tomboy as a kid. People were taking from their mothers’ closets – I was taking from my dad’s closet. It was the ’80s, so it wasn’t terrible, but I was wearing my dad’s dress shirts over jeans from the Gap.
