One thing I feel very passionate about and get excited to share is helping other people feel good about themselves. Women in particular can feel very rubbish for different reasons and one thing I love to do is put a smile on other peoples faces.
There are a few ways I attempt to make people feel good about themselves…
The first is by smiling at strangers. This may seem small but a little smile can really make somebody’s day. I know if someone smiles at me it makes me feel good and so I am sure it does the same to others. You never know what is going on in peoples lives and so a smile can make them feel good, even it’s just for a few minutes. Smiling will also make you feel happy too – So it’s a win win!
In recent years I have become passionate on working on my own self-improvement, this has mainly been through reading and listening to positive audios. I love to share what I have read with others and see them develop too. By reading books, even if it’s just 10 pages or half an hour a day it can make a huge difference. It’s so much fun to grow in my own confidence and it makes me really happy to see the same in other people.
I find giving people compliments is also great for a mood booster. There is nothing worse when people brush them off. If somebody gives you a compliment accept it with a ‘thank you’. You will certainly feel much better if you do this than to reply with ‘this old thing’. If you are giving a compliment just make sure it’s genuine.
Within my business I love it when people feel good about themselves because of the products I have shared and recommended to them. I can confidently recommend products and it’s great when people are showing more confidence because their skin is improved or they have makeup on which suits them. I believe whatever products you use they should make you feel good about yourself. If you don’t usually wear bold lipstick go for a bright red, you may just find you have a fun and confident day!
It’s so great to have had an input in making people feel good and in turn this usually puts a smile on my face too.
So next time you are out and about give someone a smile or a compliment and make somebody else feel good about themselves. In time I believe the favour will be returned and when you need it you may just get that smile back.

Buying a coffee for anyone who is not having a good day always seems to be feel good winner.

I really need to get back to reading! I spend so much time on the internet, does reading blogs count??

I am always mindful to smile at strangers, you usually get a surprised yet grateful smile in return! My favorite are little old men at the grocery store. You know they’re there with their wives, against their will, and a smile helps make it all better 🙂
