Want to know the #1 reason it’s so hard to dress yourself?*
?
PEOPLE PLEASING.
How many times have you put on an outfit that you really wanted to wear and thought, “Ughh, I look _____.” Now, whatever word you just inserted there, where do you think that came from?
What I’m 100% sure of is that whatever you put in that blank space is NOT TRUE. It might be a story you’ve always told yourself, one someone else made up about you or worse, society’s expectations of you. And the thought and judgement is there as an attempt to keep you “good,” “right,” or “normal.” Being able to put you in a box helps other people feel more comfortable.
Now that that’s been brought to your attention, how does it make you feel? When I realize what I’m wearing has nothing to do with how I feel and everything to do with how others want me to be, I get rebellious. And you know what I do with that? I change my outfit and I WEAR WHATEVER I DAMN WELL PLEASE. And it feels soooooo good.
My advice to you today: Free yourself from others’ expectations and rock out in something that makes YOU feel amazing!
