LIFE’S FULL OF BIG DEALS. SOME CAN FEEL AWESOME—LIKE SCORING A SOLO IN THE SPRING MUSICAL OR YOUR CRUSH FINALLY ASKING YOU OUT. OTHERS? NOT SO MUCH…
So what if...
THERE’S ONE THING THAT *REALLY* BUGS YOU ABOUT YOUR LOOKS?
Fact: Your body has over 2,000 unique parts. That’s a lot to love—so it’s reasonable not to be crazy about every single inch. But as much as you’d like to trade in a couple areas for new ones, the truth is that you’re mostly stuck with what you’ve got—so show your head, shoulders, knees and toes some love. Think of a few positive traits about your least favorite part. Maybe you have some ginormous feet...but they’re probably what make you such a speedy swimmer. And those freckles on your face? A beautiful badge of your Irish heritage. This approach worked for Grace G., 14: “I used to hate my small eyes. But they just so happen to be framed with extra-long lashes. So now, I play them up—and my eyes are the first thing I’m complimented on!” Bottom line: If you think you look good, others are going to pick up on that confidence. So get those parts out of hiding, and flaunt, flaunt away!
