Plus Size vs Skinny Minnie
Plus size vs skinny minnie? Just because a gal is plus size doesn’t mean that she’s dumb, unhappy, or a person that is boring to be around. Actually, if you take a look on the TV you’ll often find all kinds of modelling shows … with most models being the skinny minnie variety.
How many of them do you see ever crack a smile? How many even look healthy, never mind happy?
You can take the exact same dress and put it on a plus gal and hands down people won’t notice the dress whether you’re a skinny minnie or not. What people will notice is the attitude that shines through your personality.
Are you a joyful person? Or, an unhappy grumpy person that just shows up when you have to? The difference is like day and night. Who would you rather be around – some one who’s negativity hangs over everyone like a cold shower, or someone who even if they have a few extra pounds is the light and joy that uplifts, and brings a sense of excitement and anticipation to everyone they’re around?
Who are you now? Who do you want to be? To borrow from the tale of Snow White … Grumpy or Happy? If you’re Grumpy and wondering why everyone seems to be “too busy” or avoiding you, or for some reason you always seem to get interrupted in conversations … step back and take a look at your attitudes about yourself, your life, the kinds of thoughts and conversations you have and notice what “tone” those thoughts and moments took.
I’ll bet it won’t take you long to discover that if other people aren’t eager to be with you, then you’re probably putting out “negative vibes” and are perceived as a “grumpy” personality.
Thoughts change things. ”If something doesn’t suit you change your thoughts and you change the thing.” I forget who first coined this phrase, but it is so embarrassingly true! I notice it myself and my attitudes. I notice it with my sales people. If they’re grumpy … I tell them to go for a round of golf, a cup of coffee or go meet a friend for lunch … anywhere to get them to change their state of mind. Once they come back with a smile on their face … wouldn’t you know it … all of a sudden their sales pick back up and they’ve got dates galore for parties and people wanting to be with them. Go figure.
When you change your state, you change your point of focus and things that you were blind to before you suddenly see clearly and wonder how you ever missed it before. Want to change your life? Change your attitude and your thoughts … and it really doesn’t matter if you’re a plus size. In fact … all that matters is your internal set point … try it and see for yourself.
