6. Don’t Seek Attention
In other words, don’t be thirsty. Let’s face it: Many women are so starved for attention that they’ll do anything for anyone who will give them the time of day. Many women measure self-worth by the number of likes and comments their photos yield. Ladies, this is NOT sexy.
It comes off as desperate and kind of pathetic. Measure your self-worth by personal success and love, not by double taps.
7. Be Compassionate
Be caring, loving and loyal. This is such an easy thing to do, but we are so stressed and irritable that often, we forget to be mindful of it. I’m pretty sure that none of us are intentionally selfish, bitchy or irrational. We simply get so caught up in seeking attention and possession that we forget how to love.
Learn to be more compassionate, caring and kind, but don’t forget to stand up for yourself. It’s all about keeping a healthy balance.
8. Don’t Play Games
I don’t believe in playing “the game.” I think it’s utter BS. Whatever you are feeling — good or bad — you need to express it. Tell it like it is. Ask for what you want. If you expect someone to be straight with you, you must be straight in return.
Remember, you get what you give. If you feel like you have to play games to keep up with certain people in your life, it just may be time to re-evaluate.
9. Be Open-Minded
Your way isn’t always the right way or the best way. Be open to other people’s opinions and experiences. You might learn a thing or two. Explore outside of familiar territory and expand your comfort zone.
Be adventurous; be spontaneous and go with the flow.
10. Know What You Want
In life and for dinner, be decisive. Know what you want and learn to express it. Make up your mind and say what you think. Don’t let someone else decide your life for you. Be confident.
I know that some of these things won’t come naturally, but stick to your guns and cultivate your life with consistency and practice.
Being awesome is hard work, but you can do it.
