"I'm selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best." - Marilyn Monroe
This week I'm gonna give ya the top six songs on my ultimate confidence playlist. Music is totally powerful - it can express how you're feeling, and pick you up when you're feeling down. These songs are all about making you feel absolutely Fab. So grab some headphones and turn up the volume!
1. "Don't Stop Believin' " - Glee Cast Sing this one at the top of your lungs and you'll feel better in an instant. Promise.
2. "Single Ladies" - Beyonce Whether you have a BF or not, this one's a good reminder that you deserve to be respected for the FG you are.
3. "Into the Rush" - Aly & AJ An oldie but goodie. This one always reminds me you can jump into any challenge.
4. "Believe in Me" - Demi Lovato The ultimate confidence song. The title says it all.
5. "Change" - Taylor Swift Taylor has had an amazing year - she knows all about how things can change for the better.
6. "Make Some Noise" - Hannah Montana Hannah's music has always been about confidence and being true to yourself. She may just be another side of Miley, but her music is so FG.
So FGs, what would be on your confidence playlists? What artists and songs make you feel totally Fab? Give me a comment to share your thoughts.
So I have a little confession to make here: sometimes, I don't feel much like the Fab Gal. I mean, I've always thought it was important to believe in yourself and be confident in who you are. That's why I came here in the first place. But lately, that whole confidence thing has been hard for me. Like, way hard. But the thing is, for me anyway, when you don't have that confidence, it makes it harder to do lots of things. It's harder to make decisions (chocolate or vanilla? flip-flops or cowboy boots?), to say how you feel (I can't tell ya how many times I changed my mind on this post!)... it's harder to really enjoy all the great things you've got.
Anyways, enough about me! I don't want to be a downer. But what I wanted to tell you is this - if you've ever been there, been down on yourself, feeling a little less than Fab - you're not alone. That's just part of growing, of being a Fab Gal who wants to be the best she can be. And the good thing is, the power to change that is all inside of you. And we can work together.
So if you need a little confidence boost, or just want to celebrate how Fab you are, you're in the right place. I believe in you... and you deserve to believe in you too. We could all use a little more Fab in our lives.
xoxo
