Daily Diva & Inappropriate

The following quote (WHICH I LOVE) is taken from ................
Bobbi Brown Beauty - The Ultimate Beauty Resource
chapter 2 - The Bobbi Brown Philosophy

"I try to look my best, as most women do. I do it mainly for myself, but I like it when someone tells me I look pretty. I think everyone likes to hear that compliment; pretty is a magical word. After fifteen years as a professional makeup artist, having done thousands of women's faces, I believe looking pretty is not just about doing nice makeup or possessing exceptional God-given features. No, I am convinced that confidence is probably the most compelling element of real beauty. In every aspect of my life, I consciously strive to boost my self-confidence. I make a practice of limiting negativity and hassles that can drag me down or erode that self-assurance. A positive outlook shapes my roles at home and at work-as a wife and mother, and as a makeup artist and the head of my own cosmetics company: it is, I hope the guiding principle of this book."

I don't mind joking around with my co-workers, but sometimes people just get creepy. Must you turn everything I say into a sexual joke? Why do you always have to say hello in a creepy way? Why do you think because I am a woman it is okay to make sexual jokes in front of me? There is a big difference between joking around with me and getting very inappropriate. Well I'm not going to take it anymore, I WILL call you out on your inappropriate behavior.

Diva, Fragrance, & Managing Conflicts

DIVA:
If someone compliments you, accept is gracefully.

A DIVA knows how to take a compliment. DON'T shrug it off or make an excuse. ACCEPT IT... Thank the person, but don't feel you need to make a fake compliment in return. They complimented you for a reason.

JUST accept the compliment. YOU DESERVE IT!!!!! A DIVA always deserve compliments!!!!!

Fragrance:
I finally found a fragrance I love!!!! Cool Water for woman. I wanted a sophisticated and sexy smell, and now I have it. I just have to figure out the perfect amount to apply so that it lasts all day but is not overwhelming.

Managing Conflicts: I had a workshop on Wed morning. The presenter was awesome, she just makes you feel powerful. I have techniques for understanding personality types of those I work with and strategies for dealing with those people.

Catching on & Tis the Season for COLDS!!!!

OH MY, so many people have told me they LOVE getting the Daily Diva emails. This makes me so happy! I want every woman to feel powerful, confident, and beautiful.

The past two DAILY DIVAs....

MONDAY: Walk with your head up, shoulders back, nice and tall, and look everyone in the eyes. You know where you're going. People will notice your power and step asside. Your power and sexiness bring energy to the room, even when you leave your escence is still there.

TUESDAY:

What is sexy?

The definition is different for all of us, don't force it, don't pretend. Be yourself, be natural. When you feel good with yourself, when you feel confident, when you're having a good time........... You're a DIVA.
.
Enjoy life, smile, laugh, have a good time, your natural beauty will come through.
.
Being a DIVA is more than just sex appeal, its power, its success, its confidence.

The cold is coming, I just know it. I can feel it in my nose, chest, and throat. I have been drinking lots of OJ, bundling up when going outside, I have the mucinex pill ready to go when I need them. It's just so fustrating. When I get sick it always turns into bronchitis or a respitory infection.

Attitude, Diva, & Annoying People

My friend sent me this email and I thought it was wonderful.

There once was a woman who woke up one morning, Looked in the mirror, and noticed she had only three hairs on her head. Well," she said, "I think I'll braid my hair today?" So she did and she had a wonderful day.

The next day she woke up, looked in the mirror and saw that she had only two hairs on her head. "H-M-M," she said, "I think I'll part my hair down the middle today?" So she did and she had a grand day.

The next day she woke up, looked in the mirror and noticed that she had only one hair on her head. "Well," she said, "today I'm going to wear my hair in a pony tail." So she did and she had a fun, fun day.

The next day she woke up, looked in the mirror and noticed that there wasn't a single hair on her head. "YEA!" she exclaimed, "I don't have to fix my hair today!"

Attitude is everything.

Be kinder than necessary, for everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.

Live simply,

Love generously,

Care deeply,

Speak kindly......

Leave the rest to God

Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass...
It's about learning to dance in the rain.

2. Today's Daily Diva: Remember, sexy isn't a dress size its a state of mind.

3. Seriously, how many times should I have to explain to someone what my role is at work???? You can compliment me all you want, make plans for me, but I WILL NOT DO YOU WORK FOR YOU. Not now, NOT EVER!!!!!

Confidence and Board

So, things are going pretty good on the board. I put in a motion to purchase a tape recorder in order to take accurate minutes. Once the minutes are approved at the next board meeting I will erase the recorded minutes. We are all working together as a board.

The other night we had a special meeting to inform owners that a well-know bank will be building right next to our property and using our drainage system (which we already have problems with). Certain board members are currently working with the bank and Planning and Zoning Committee to resolve any problems that may arrise in the future.

We were thanked by many owners for informing them and doing what should have been done years ago!!!!

So many friends have told me they love my daily diva emails and feel so confident and powerful. We have had conversations about beauty, and we all agree it is about CONFIDENCE. It is about how you feel about yourself. It has nothing to do with the tightness of the clothes, the missing clothes. It has to do with how you feel about yourself.

"Beauty is how you feel inside, and it reflects in your eyes. It is not something physical." -- Sophia Loren

Instead of whishing you could be like that "woman" on the street that you envy, imagine..................

YOU are the one everyone is envious of. You are the one that woman sneer at because you are beautiful, you are the one woman sneer at because you turn heads everywhere you. You are hot, you are gorgeous. You are, YOU ARE A DIVA..........
