It has been a great week- but it reminded me how fragile we are as humans – and how even if all we aspire to is comfort and happiness, our minds try to protect us  and move us back to that comfort zone whenever we try to move outside of the zone where it feels we are safe.

Where this week have you found yourself starting then stopping on a goal or project to create a new fashion image in your dressing? Did you try to look at your closet and remove some of the outdated clothing items, then suddenly get too busy with other things to get back to it or to finish it?  It happens so often with life that we can miss the signs of stopping ourselves just before we make the big breakthroughs.

Things to be alert for:

• If you are cleaning out your closet, as you are getting close to beginning on your plan, are you beginning to feel sadness that you will soon be losing your friends, those old clothes that are in your closet and need to be removed?
• Then that pesky little nagging doubt of what if I have spent all of this time and no-one thinks you look great.
• Then you might feel like you might be criticized by anyone who sees your new fashion look and you know how much you dislike being criticized.
• Then you might feel like you do not know how you will take it if you get good or bad feedback about how you are dressing.

 
Here is the deal–it is so easy to reside in a comfort zone – unwilling to receive feedback that might shatter the dream that you might find it easier to stop going for it than risk going for it and not succeeding.

But it has to be done.

Start–put an outfit together–then do it again. The more you repeat, the more you will move toward your dream of becoming well dressed.

Dressing is about what works for you and your lifestyle. While you can take fashion into consideration ultimately it has to match who you are and want to look.
