competing
Quote From: gcg1211I am aging, overweight and struggle with low self-esteem. I went to Robin's beauty recipes, and tried her "morning drink" recipe. I vomited almost immediately afterwards and was sick for hours...
How can "normal" people compete with celebrity images? Look at Robin- she is nearly my age I think (58) and she looks about 35!!! How can everyday people compete with people who have the resources and ability to do things we can't?
Just wanting to vent a bit....thanks. You've said it...How do we compete. The answer is that you're not suppose to. You're suppose to be the best "YOU" that you can be. You're not going to be the best Robin. She's already taken the job. And truly, no offense to Robin but normal people just don't have the time in their day to do all things neccessary to look like her. I'm guessing she works out, may have a personal trainer, probably gets facials and manicures and has someone to do her hair, make up and wardrobe for when she's in public. We mere mortals can not afford all that luxury therefore shouldn't even try to compete or compare ourselves to such a world. It's ok to look up to a celebrity or admire them but don't try being like them. It's setting yourself up for failure. Besides, there aren't many celebs out there anymore worth looking up to. Find something that you like about you and build on that.
