Welcome to DAMN YOU LOOK GOOD TODAY!!!

You were probably led here via an email from me or maybe you found us while surfing the web. Regardless of how you arrived here let me say Hello and Welcome.

We are an all female group, who started out mostly as strangers but over time have become friends. Our motto is "DAMN, YOU LOOK GOOD TODAY!!" Said with feeling! HA HA. We normally communicate via email. The plan is to use this space to share messages and ideas that may be too long for our normal emails. For example, this feature is our way of introducing you to the group.

Our goals are to become more confident, happy women, to increase our self esteem and learn to love ourselves INSIDE AND OUT!! How can we accomplish all that??? The first step is to adopt a positive attitude. Unfortunately it's not that simple. Suddenly declaring "from now on I will be 100% positive" is like a smoker quitting cold turkey. It almost never works. I believe that a good way to make a life change is to start slowly. Take small steps, and then gradually add more until you reach your goal. We've developed some exercises that helped us get started.

1. Tell yourself, everyday, that you look good!! Many women have difficulty appreciating their outer beauty. Why can we believe that we are smart, or strong, or good mothers, but not beautiful?? I know so many beautiful women who are unhappy with their looks. I feel that we have wasted our lives being unhappy with ourselves. It's just wrong and we are not going to stand for it any more!!!! RIGHT? Of course right. So every time you look in the mirror, smile and tell yourself, DAMN, I LOOK GOOD TODAY!!

Just because we recognize our outer beauty doesn't mean we stop all efforts to improve ourselves. In fact I think the opposite happens. Believing in our beauty improves our self esteem. This gives us the confidence needed to make changes. When we begin to love ourselves inside and out it becomes easier for us to concentrate on those areas we may want to improve. Women want to care for the people they love. So add your name to that list and give yourself some special care! Clarification; 'improve' means - diet, exercise, makeup, jewelry, skin care, well fitted clothing, NOT LIPO!!!

2. Keep an eye out for MEN!! Don't laugh!! It's not what you're thinking. You need to be observant, at work, on the street, in the store, any place where there are men. Whenever a man looks at you, for any reason, you are to smile and say to yourself. "DAMN, I LOOK GOOD TODAY!!" It doesn't matter if he's trying to get your number or if you almost killed him by swerving into his lane. When he looks, you say those magic words "DAMN, I LOOK GOOD TODAY!!" This is not meant to be a way to pick up men. It's meant to help us gain confidence and feel good about ourselves. Just try it.

3. Tell others that they look good. Tell the ladies in the group, and tell others that you meet. Due to the delicate nature of some people, you may want to leave off the Damn part. HA. However you say it.... JUST SPREAD THE LOVE!!!

OK, that's enough to get you started. Check back here for more exercises, and messages, and don't forget that YOU LOOK DAMN GOOD TODAY!!
