Don’t be afraid to be who you are or
what you are-be yourself.
Have confidence in who you are.
Keep a glowing smile on your face.
Make it contagious for everyone to catch.
Think of yourself as someone
strong, sophisticated, amazingly
stable…then others will too.

If you think you’re
beautiful, intelligent, and outgoing
so will everyone else.
Don’t be afraid to get crazy and wild.
Go out of your way to show
people a new side of you.
Let your hair down; let it blow in the wind
Show them a side of you that you
never thought that you would share.

Show people the real you. Let
Them know what kind of person you are.
Show them how crazy you can get, but also how
Normal you can be. Show them a side no one has
Ever seen, but in the comfort of yourself.

It’s better to be hated for what you are,
then to be loved for what you’re not.
Be who you are.

Don’t be afraid to be yourself.
Have confidence, dignity, strength and support
in who you are.
Follow the golden rule:
If you respect others, they will respect you.

Let people know how you feel.
Don’t be afraid of their response.
Find people who like you
No matter what you are wearing like Hollister or

If your hair looks amazing...

Wear something outrageous like
Neon green tights with a neon pink
Skirt to let them
Know you’re not afraid to express
your inner creativity.

Don’t be afraid to be yourself.
Show a different side of you.
Dance randomly if you’re in a
Random mood.
Have confidence in who you are.
Whether you’re short and plump like
A troll or tall and slender like a green bean.
Don’t let people influence your style;
be creative.
Be yourself.
