Validation
Why is it that when we think we have a good idea as soon as someone else agrees it just gets better? The answer is it just got validated. To be honest I am in constant need of validation. Decisions usually set this off for me. Things like, my clothing choices, my hair style, my job, my car, should I go here, should I go there, do I look fat in this bikini? If I think about it there is a certain desire for validation in every aspect of my life. Hopefully I am not the only person who does this because if I am then I could be considered clinically insane!
Other than losing weight and getting healthy, hot and FABULOUS. This is something that I am trying to work on. My thoughts are that when my self-image gets in tact I will not feel the need for validation as much. So I suppose my affirmation for the day is, “I am strong enough, smart enough, more than capable to make decisions on my own and I look hot in this outfit”. See I already feel better about my day! A friend of mine sent me this video and I love it so I hope you enjoy it as well.
