Girl, Wash Your Face Book Summary Preview

Are you constantly feeling down about yourself?

Do you tend to listen to outside forces rather than the voice within?

Why do we keep believing things that aren’t true about ourselves?

Well, it’s time to wash your face of it!

“You, and only you are ultimately responsible for who you become and how happy you are.” - Rachel Hollis

Rachel Hollis in “Girl Wash Your Face” tells us that we can have everything we want if only we stop listening to the negativity around us. All we have to do is believe in ourselves and our ability to achieve what everyone else is already achieving.

You are the only one in control of your life. And, it is your responsibility to work toward your dreams. There is no one that can stop you once you’ve made the decision to close your ears to the lies you’re telling yourself.

Stop Breaking Promises To Yourself

It’s way too common to make a promise to yourself that you simply don’t keep. You make excuses, life comes up, blah blah blah. But, really these promises are the ones you should keep over any.

These promises to yourself whether it’s about eating healthy or waking up earlier are set to help you achieve your goals. By breaking these promises, you are putting a stop to your progress.

“When you really want something, you will find a way. When you don’t really want something, you’ll find an excuse.” - Rachel Hollis

Try forming the habit of keeping the promises you make to yourself. You will feel much more productive and you’ll definitely have a higher respect for yourself.

Only You Can Make It Happen

Listen up! Never take ‘no’ for an answer. That is how successful people make their dreams come true. If you are faced with a problem, find a creative solution to override that problem and keep on your journey to success.

Failures happen, but the people who keep failing and failing while still smiling toward their destination are the ones that find success in the end. Some goals aren’t easy and neither is creating the life you’ve always wanted. So, when failures happen, suck it up and keep going.

And, please, do not settle for less just because you’ve failed. Always keep your eyes on the prize and be true to yourself. Be patient, it should matter how long it takes. If it is truly your dream, any amount of time is worth it.

Your Love Life Should Never Be Boring

Love is one of the greatest gifts in life. And, if we are lucky enough to experience true love in our lives, then it definitely should never be boring.

Now, let’s talk about sex. We’ve all heard that sex gets boring after you’ve been in a long relationship. But, that’s a lie. Again, YOU are responsible for how your life plays out. So, there is no reason why good sex should be compromised.

A huge reason women don’t have fulfilling sex lives is that they are not embracing their natural bodies. If you are telling lies to yourself about your thighs...
