Confidence and Self Esteem

Confidence & Self Esteem

Aren’t Economic Terms

I hear about the economy every day from folks receiving beauty treatments. It is interesting to hear the motives of the folks getting the treatments.  They all have one common thread- Confidence and Self Esteem. I am really inspired to hear how each of them in different ways, have made adjustments.  Yet, to a person, they all realize that the economy is temporary, and they can choose to participate or they can choose to look for the pleasure and blessings all around us.  The financial status of my patients varies widely, like in any office, but the similarities are striking when it comes to who purchases what and why. I have found that people will not miss a mortgage payment to obtain their Botox or laser treatment, but they will skip going to restaurants so often in order to do it. The reason? As one patient put it: “Things are bad enough out there. If I don’t get this done (lips, eyes, you name it), then things are bad in the mirror too. It makes me feel better.”

Feeling Fabulous Is The Key

Have you ever had a real bad hair day and all you wanted to do was get back home before too many people saw you? With cosmetic treatments, it’s not that different. When you know you look fabulous, or at least rested and refreshed, you feel fabulous and have much more confidence about pretty much everything. Confidence in one area tends to spread to others. People look at you differently, you look at them differently, and think about this…they respond to you differently. Finding a new job, or even getting a promotion today is much more difficult than it was a few years ago. Of course you are going to wear your best business attire and be appropriately groomed. You are going to be aware of the company and have done your homework (if it is a new venture). However, the “edge” that you need might just be from the confidence that you have attained from erasing the years and looking better than ever. With that kind of attitude, you can’t lose!

I look forward to hearing from you.
