I'd like to share one of the best things in my life. Get yourself one. I'm talking about a folder in your mail with all the encouraging things people have ever sent you. On blue days, you read through it all and get a boost. I call mine snyggochsmart. Gorgeous and clever. This is not about subtlety or modesty, it's about picking oneself up when you're really down. Such an undertaking calls for superlatives. This is no place for criticism or self judgment.
Go make yourself a Gorgeous and Clever folder today. Should anyone make fun of you, tell them you were ordered to do so by your boss. That would be me.
Ps. If you're self conscious you could always make it a sub-folder. No one needs to know except you. And me.
