Testimonies about today's real beauty standard: Confidence and Self Acceptance

Hello beautiful reader!
Searching the internet I found a couple of testimonies that prove that today’s beauty standard is positive and it’s all about being confident and self-accepting. Most of them are blogs from YouTube, but I also included books about “formulas” and experiences that have made many celebrities reached their confidence, while at the same time, be beautiful. In fact, I believe this is not going to be the only post of lists of uplifting and real videos or books about this topic.
The truth is that while reading or listening these books, I may have cried. Just a little, but I am a crybaby. Anyways, I hope that you lovely reader like this stories and google this books about today’s real beauty standard. Enjoy!
This inspiring video is about how Candy gained her most recognized confidence. She says that she wasn’t always confident, but she developed it by trying new things and moving forward. Everyone has their own “demons” but these ones can be controlled, and that’s what she did. After she gain her confidence, she tells us how she got successful on her career and everyone sees her as beautiful. And she exhorts us that we should do the same thing, it can change your life.

This testimony is about how the raise of plus models have helped her be more confident in herself. She tells us that one thing that she’s proud of is that she’s taking more selfies and actually liking them. It’s not a physical thing, but a mental state. That’s why confidence and self-acceptance is beauty. She’s a clear example of this. (She also has a blog so check it out at http://littlemindseeds.blogspot.com/)

This one is a recording of the Today’s show in 2011, they are interviewing super plus size model Lizzi Miller when she did the super famous “nude” picture for Glamour. What we see here is many testimonies and the positive response this pictures or articles have accomplished. Women are feeling more confident and, therefore, happier. They prove this and remember us that it’s normal to have insecurities but those can’t control your life. We’re beautiful just the way we are. Also, the magazine Glamour has decided to continue integrating every type of body in their magazine since that’s what the people wants and finds beautiful, and they have kept their promise.

This book dear reader is a must have on your collection. I recommend it to anyone. It’s funny, and filled with tips about how to learn to love your flaws and stories about how the amazingly talented Amy Poehler got to be who she is. In a humorous way, she tells us that confidence is the key of everything and it’s what makes us awesome and beautiful.

This book was made by Demi Lovato. May I repeat Demi freaking Lovato, she’s such an inspiration and one of the biggest examples of how self acceptance and confidence is what makes us beautiful and successful (big fan!). This book is about how to accomplish that life key and testimonies about the own Lovato of how the past affected her and now she’s a “warrior”. It works like a diary with tips and tricks on how to do this, and one should read a page or mini chapter daily for 365 days.
If you guys know of more testimonies of have one of your own, I would love to hear them. So comment below or write me at princesaanaily@yahoo.com. Thanks again!
