Best.Advice.Ever Part 19

Do not read beauty magazines. They will only make you feel ugly.

It's true...even when I read some parts of Glamour or Cosmo (which i LOVE) sometimes I feel inadequate...maybe it's best to take these magazines with a grain of salt...I've tried to read them just for fashion and other advice, but some days I sink back into old habits.

Read the directions, even if you dont follow them.

You don't always have to follow the "one" path to get to your goals. You'll get there in the best way for you, as long as you make your decisions in your best interests. One person's way isn't always the best way for you, but take advice and suggestions to heart, they can only help you pave your own way.

Dance even if you have nowhere to do it but in your own living room.

This is one of the most sound pieces of advice that I have heard. It may sound stupid, but starting your own dance party can be really good for the mind and the soul. It can help clear your head, release frustration and endorphins. It gets your body going and makes you feel good; not to mention, it is a good form of exercise that does not feel like exercise.

Enjoy your body,
use it every way you can dont be afraid of it, or what other people think of it,
its the greatest instrument youll ever own.
.

Your body is also the only thing that you came into this world with, and the only thing you leave with. It's something you can take pride in, and you should.

What ever you do, dont congratulate yourself too much or berate yourself either
your choices are half chance, so are everybody elses.



Learn to be happy with your accomplishments, but not too satisfied; if you become too satisfied or fulfilled, you will never have the drive to push yourself any more. You work to make things happen, and each should be a source of pride and experience; don't tip the scales and gloat on one side; try not to pity party too much when things don't work out.

Maybe youll marry, maybe you wont, maybe youll have children,
maybe you wont, maybe youll divorce at 40, maybe youll dance the funky chicken
on your 75th wedding anniversary.



The only way we can see if these things will happen is to take chances, not sit around waiting for things to happen magically...doing that pretty much guarantees nothing will happen. Take a chance and see where it leads you.

Get plenty of calcium.

For real-keep moving, you don't want old, fragile bones too early; keep the dance parties up and the calcium in

Dont feel guilty if you dont know what you want to do with your life
the most interesting people I know didnt know at 22 what they wanted to do with
their lives, some of the most interesting 40 year olds know still don't

I've seen this more and more as I've grown up-when we were little, we knew exactly what we wanted, but as we got older, we found more interests and things that we didn't even know were possible...Always work for what you want, but don't leave yourself out in the cold while, you're waiting to get there.

Stretch

Not only is stretching good for your muscles, it can also help you destress and clear your head. Stretching out your muscles will warm up your body and your brain; it will help you feel better. Practice deep breathing while you stretch; you will boost the oxygen flow throughout your body and feel refreshed.

Keep your old love letters, throw away your old bank statements.


I love this idea...keep the things that make you happy and remind you of happy things. I don't really have any love letters, but I keep every single letter or note that was written to me...I love the memories-they help me see the evolution of friendship and really appreciate the awesome people who I share my life with.

Remember the compliments you receive, forget the insults; if you succeed in doing
this, tell me how.


Okay, I am standing up right now and saying that I am the WORST at taking compliments...if you're at least half way honest, you'll stand up here with me. We don't want to seem too self absorbed to say thank you, and on days when we aren't feeling 100%, denying a compliment just helps us feed into our own self destructive bottomless pit. To be honest, when I think about it, when people can't take a compliment or deny a compliment, it actually seems like they are trying to fish for more compliments than just that one. I am going to try from now on to thank everyone for the compliments that they give me (even if I do not feel like they are true or deserved), and think positively so that I can hopefully see those aspects in myself that they chose to notice.

Dont waste your time on jealousy; sometimes you're ahead, sometimes you're behind
the race is long, and in the end, its only with yourself.

This is something that I have a lot of issues with-not so much jealousy as often as just feeling inadequate or comparing myself to other people. Most of us have this issue and it's not a healthy one; it definitely is a waste of time and energy

Dont be reckless with other peoples hearts, dont put up with people who
are reckless with yours.

Just like "treat others the way you want to be treated" but with a twist...Respect others, but give yourself the respect that you reserve...inside AND out. Respect your body, your mind, your heart, and your soul; don't compromise yourself just because it will make someone else happy. If they really care about you and love you, they won't be reckless with you and won't make you put up with any of that.
