Tenacious Tuesday = Attitude Check
Eleanor Roosevelt said, ” No one can make you feel inferior without your consent!”
That is the attitude of a bombshell. No one wants to make her feel inferior or less than. I think that is one thing I love about pin-up girls and a time when less was more. The subtleness of curves and the wisdom of a woman was admired; honored.
When did so much credence get put on numbers? Everything is measured by inanimate objects that seem to carry so much power. Think about it. Our moods and our emotions can soar and crash by these things. Money, the scale, a tape measure around our waist, the sizing tag on clothes.
The true measure of a woman is what’s in her heart and in her soul. Take a look inside yourself and what is it that you are allowing to make you feel inferior. What old thoughts or behaviors are holding you back from a bombshell attitude?
I will leave you with this other quote from Ms. Roosevelt
Somehow, we learn who we really are and then live with that decision.
It is all a matter of choice What will you do to refuse consent to the numbers and be the bombshell you were meant to be? I would LOVE to hear your choice?
I decided that I wasn't going to be pushed around, bullied or dominated while I was a young woman in my 30's. I had enough. When my then soon-to-be ex-husband patted my head and said, "We'll see how well you can make it without me," I thought, "Yes, we'll see." I've done well with my odds in my corner. I am a warrior woman – trying now to be less ferocious in my crone years – trying, I said.Hee hee hee. Now I'll decide again – ???
