Well hey there! A little late today? I wasn’t going to post but today is Operation Beautiful in the Elf for Health Challenge (read more about it here), and it inspired me to send you all a little something to brighten your day.
From the Operation Beautiful Website:
“The goal of the Operation Beautiful website is to end negative self-talk or “Fat Talk.” If this little blog only does one productive thing, I hope it helps readers realize how truly toxic negative self-talk is — it hurts you emotionally, spiritually, and physically.
Through my own experiences fighting Fat Talk, I’ve realized the power behind an anonymous act such as Operation Beautiful. When I post a note, I’m saying, “I CHOOSE to be positive!”
I began Operation Beautiful by leaving positive messages on the mirrors of public restrooms — at work, at the gym, at the grocery store. I scribble down whatever comes to mind — “You are beautiful!” or “You are amazing just the way you are!” My personal goal is to leave as many Operation Beautiful notes as I can. Maybe some people read them and just smile, but I bet some people are truly touched by the effort of a random stranger.”
Today I decided to be the Operation Beautiful Fairy in Lakeview and I’ve been leaving notes everywhere, from my gym to stores and even on parked cars! I hope that’s legal…
Anyway, here are some more positive thoughts to send your way!
You can find more like these on my Pinterest Life Quotes Board!
Have a great Friday!
