Taming the Lion

Hello positive readers,

I wanted to start off by apologizing for my atrocious grammar in my first post, embarrassing. I copy and pasted the wrong draft, but thank you all for seeing past that and leaving me such lovely comments!

Today’s insight is about taming the lion. I woke up this morning and was a lion. No joke. I yawed baring my teeth and then pounced on the nearest pray, sorry Kev. Crawled out of bed, looked in the mirror and let out a huge growl, “Oh my god, my hair!” The main of a lion! It’s really astonishing how I can go to bed, obviously looking like a goddess, and wake up looking like I belong on the Serengeti.

After I decided to make morning matcha’s for the king and I, play with Mittens and help groom Moufasa, it was time for this lioness to tidy up her own main. Straightening iron here I come!

I’m about 1/5 of the way done, which means I’ve really just turned the iron on, parted off my first section and looked in the mirror, saw that light bulb above my head and had came to write this.

20-30 minutes later, my masterpiece is done. I am walking a little taller, my chest puffs out a little and I tend to strut and flip my hair around like I’m on the runway. Please tell me I’m not the only one that does this, otherwise the rest of this post may be a little embarrassing!

Whenever I do this ritual, I have the same amazing feeling afterwards, so I move right on to the next stage feeling that much better. Make up is next, then pick the clothes to match today’s attitude, one last strut in front of Moufasa and Presto, I am ready! God damn, I am one sexy bitch! I love that feeling!I'm Sexy and I Know It - YouTube

I think us women need to feel this all the time. Whether we are doing domestics, driving around, working, whatever. How you ask? Well, today I am going to unveil a couple of my personal tricks to positively feeling fabulous!

PFF tip # 1:

When you are doing something domestic around the house, whether it be doing your hair, having a shower, dishes, laundry, cleaning up cat puke (yes, sadly, that’s a normal in my house) turn up that music and drop it like it’s hot .Whether you’re alone or not, (ha I rhymed) shake your butt like it’s going out of style!  (Not sure how to do this? Take a look here: Drop It Like It's Hot YouTube)

PFF tip #2:

Driving to work, to friends, to see family, to get gas, put your shiny lip gloss on, those over sized bug sun glasses, like all the rock stars wear, and sing at the top of your lungs. With or without your window being open. I highly recommend the song Baby Got Back or, I’m a Bitch, my personal favorites.I'm A Bitch, Baby Got Back

PFF tip # 3:

This is by far the most important, I believe. If you are walking around on the street, in the store, at work, basically anywhere in the public eye somewhere, smile. I don’t think enough of the world today is comfortable smiling, or saying hello to strangers on the street. The power of a genuine smile is under estimated. You will be amazed at how many people will not only return that smile, bringing out that goddess feeling, but even complimenting you on your radiant smile! Boosting that feeling even more.

Time does not always allow me to go through the personal ritual that I mentioned above, which sucks. Some days there’s just not always enough hours in the day, however, fellow lioness’, missing a step doesn’t stop me from positively feeling fabulous most of the time. Remember to smile genuinely, goof around and let out that growl when needed.

So ladies, how do you tame the lion?
