Answer of the Day: Avoid Underselling Yourself-- Honey, you got it goin' on!

This week I was chatting online with, Mo, who lives in the great state of Utah, in Salt a Lake- the City!  She is a wise friend, who somehow manages to always know how to say the exact right thing to me at the exact right time. It's sort of uncanny how she accomplishes this.
Here is a portion of that conversation...

what's with all the self doubt, B???

ME: it's me Mo.  I am a ball of insecurity when it comes to my personal life...

look at my track record, doesn't it sort of speak volumes!

I'm working hard to change that track in my head... but a lifetime of habits don't change overnight.

okay - here's my wisdom for what it is worth...everyone has a shitty track record until they meet the right person...and 50% have a shitty track record even after that!

ME: you are totally right

my wise friend. i miss you

but your biggest flaw is CONSISTENTLY selling yourself short

exactly

ME: you nailed it

First of all, I'm amazed at the the wonderment that is real friendship.  I could say this much about each of my girlfriends: we really know each other.  We have been through hell and high water together and that is something.  I'm so grateful for the mirrors I have in the form of my girlfriends who feed back to me what I need to see, good, bad, or ugly.

After this conversation, I put on my (hot pink) big girl panties, my black VS bra, made myself up so I was feeling myself like I should be and remembered that I have got it goin' on!

I'm smart, funny, generous, accomplished, witty, intelligent, considerate, attractive--- and I'm well loved by so many of the most amazing friends and family.  I need to stop underselling myself and remember that any MAN should have to show me he is WORTHY of me.  And most importantly, the right man, knows this and reminds me of it everyday.
