International Woman’s Day is
coming soon, 8th March 2014. How do we embrace ourselves in this
celebration? Being a Wonder Woman in current era is not an easy task. These days women
are more multitasking and being more empowered in decision making in workplace
and family. The UN theme for International Women's Day 2014 is "Equality
for Women is Progress for All”. Some non-government organizations consider the
official recognition of International Women's Day as an important reminder of
women's role in the society. Thus we have the upper hand to become independent
and received recognition of our rights.
Social media and press play huge influence
towards young woman these days. Women
are expected to carry themselves in certain portrayed image by the society. Such
influence may be positive whereby we can cultivate independency and empowerment.
Some may be negative influence such as sexual exploitation and perverse standards
which leads to insecurity and inferior. Yes, perhaps we may not inherit
beautiful face like Angelina Jolie or Victoria Secret’s body. All of us comes in
different sizes and shapes in terms of physical appearance. Some women have higher earning power in corporate and some earn lesser. Some are more popular than others. There is no perfection in everything
because definition of “perfect” differs for everyone.
Is there a time where you
are dissatisfied with your appearance? Or is there a time where you regretted for
decision you made in the past? Or is there a time where you could have turn
back your clock and strife for more? The answer is “Dont Be”. It is never too late
to pick yourself up and move forward.
So how do we embrace ourselves in
every aspect?
1.
Physical
appearance
If you have a hooded
eyes or crooked nose, embrace it because this is you being a unique person. God
creates you individually. There is nothing you can do about it unless spending
thousand bucks for cosmetic surgery. Chances of getting your preferred outcome
may not be as what you expected. If you
think you are unfit or overweight, have a routine work out that keeps you stay
in shape. Consult your trusted personal trainer or even read up some fitness
book. Make a habit to eat healthy. Invest a good skin care/facial regime. When you are healthy and fit, you will feel good
and able to encourage and take care of others as well. Sign up a grooming or
personal makeup class. Have a makeover according to your features. Not all makeup
application is the same. You need to identify your face features. Dress up
according to your body shape and appropriately. Always be comfortable with yourself. You are not trying to gain acknowledgment and acceptance from society.
2.
Renewed
mind

3.
Relationship

4.
Savings

There is more aspect to cover in
our life but these are common topic to raise up. Never give up and pursue your happiness. Start to love and embrace
yourselves!
Happy International Women’s Day!
