I wanted to be a film and television writer and producer.
I love the confidence that makeup gives me.
I'm competitive with myself. I always try to push past my own borders.
A lot of young girls think that the opposite of fake is rudeness. And just as ugly as fake is, so is saying whatever is on your mind because it's the truth.
Self-love has very little to do with how you feel about your outer self. It's about accepting all of yourself.
Don't make excuses - make improvements!
A smile is the most important thing you wear.
You can have all the potential in world, but unless you have confidence, you have nothing.
Keep in mind that we should always thank those who hurt us, especially those who did so bad we are forced to transform. They risk the eternal verdict of going to hell just to make us better than who we are.
Stop saying these negative things about yourself. Look in the mirror and find something about yourself that's positive and celebrate that!
Never dull your shine for somebody else.
Don't chase the money... chase the passion. Because that's what is going to keep you happy and motivated and jumping out of that bed Monday morning.
Love every part of yourself. Even the things that frustrate you. They make you who you are!
Girls of all kinds can be beautiful - from the thin, plus-sized, short, very tall, ebony to porcelain-skinned; the quirky, clumsy, shy, outgoing and all in between. It's not easy though because many people still put beauty into a confining, narrow box...Think outside of the box...Pledge that you will look in the mirror and find the unique beauty in you.
