How Do You Define Yourself?

Good Morning Smart is Sexy Loves!

This 3 min video is an awesome experience to visually demonstrate the power of the brain. We may never recognize that we are short changing ourselves with the way we think—until proven wrong. So how will you EVER prove yourself wrong?
[more…]

Perhaps not until you SEE it for yourself. Watch what the power of visuals can do…

I challenge you to stray from the obvious concept in the video– recognizing beauty in the form of confidence, self-esteem etc. Nah, we kick the obvious out! Here at Smart is Sexy, we break stereotypes and elevate the Status Quo.

We all know that our minds have tremendous strength and influence over a large amount of what we can, and will do. During the week when we alternate from being hypochondriacs to convenient phobia-holics to on our most hungover days—just plain assholes, we’re left with the days that we are Game Changers, very diligent, positive thinkers, students, aunts or uncles that ask, ‘WHY?’

WHY do the men and women in the video project such a skewed version of themselves? What if the built-in system that has educated us since a young age is how we have developed to see and place value to things like beauty and even ourselves. In what part of our education do you remember learning to appreciate yourself and recognize your values? Because it happened at some point. Personally, I can’t tell if this happened in my teens with my friends flipping through glossy magazines, or loooooong before at home, or when the first time a boy fell in love with me and made me feel beautiful. Can we pinpoint it? Probably not.

But here is a start:

Educating yourself in ways to recognize the value you possess, is Smart.
Allowing yourself to appreciate them, is Sexy.
Making the most of your physical features is—Smart.
Feeling beautiful based on what you define to be is—Sexy.

Remove the mask, life might just be better without it.

Smart Choices,
Sexy Life,
Smart is Sexy

Who decides if you are beautiful? You or others?
