Thinking Like A Star

Good morning angels! How is everyone's week going? I had to refilm the blue liner tutorial due to some issues I had with the first one :/ being a perfectionist can really bite you in the butt! Just want to make sure I'm giving you guys the best quality every time! But I refilmed this morning and I think it came out pretty good :) Just in the middle of editing it and it will most likely by up tomorrow morning (or maybe even tonight). Excited to show you because I absolutely love this look! It's so fresh yet still has something unique about it, and as most of my tutorials, it's so easy & simple to do!

A little preview of my next video! 

I love sharing quotes with you, and here is another one of my favorites!

"If you think you can do a thing,
or think you can't do a thing,
YOU'RE RIGHT!"

- Henry Ford 

In my words, this quote basically sums up the idea of "You are what you think". So if you say, "I suck at doing makeup/playing sports/cooking" or "I can never be healthy" or "Bad things always happen to me" or "I am not confident" - then that is what you're brain is going to function by.

However, if you say "I might not be an expert at ___, BUT I am going to try my hardest to improve on it" your attitude is completely shifted, and so is your brain and your thoughts, thus your actions. If you say "I can be healthy", "I am confident" - you're brain is going to go by what you say. Make sense? And notice how good it feels to say that - I am strong! I am confident! I am beautiful! I am smart! I am special! Good things happen to me! (Even if you don't fully believe it now, and it's almost like you're 'lying' to yourself, keep repeating it until you feel it coming naturally.) This also goes back to positive thinking, and The Secret (which if you haven't watched or listened to yet, you should really!)

A good quote which sums it up: 

"The mind is everything. What you think, you become."

- Buddha

Have you guys experienced, or put this idea into practice before? I certainly have! :) I remember having to give presentations in class, and I'd sometimes get pretty nervous and choke up a little, but then I'd literally tell myself "I am a great public speaker!" (lol even if I'm not, it just makes you feel so much better and really gets your through it!). When we have positive thoughts, our mind and our actions follow accordingly. What are your thoughts on this? Let me know in the comments! :) 

Be back soon with my new video! XOXO
