Day 23:
What physical feature do others seem to find most attractive about you?
What is your ideal outcome of this challenge?
Wasn’t this question asked already? I think it’s my hair. At least, I sort of believe it when people say nice things about it. I have received other compliments, but I find serious flaws with those parts of me, so I kind of feel like people aren’t serious when they say something nice. I think they are making fun of me or something. My eyes are a good example. Some people say they think I have great eyes. I think they are boring. Plus they are still a little crossed and they are scarred from the strabismus surgery.
The ideal outcome of this challenge would be that I accept who and what I am and be happy with it. I do enough, I have accomplished enough, I am enough and will continue to be enough. That’s not being realistic though. I started this hoping that by being forced to be optimistic and look for good things in myself that I would see them and believe them. I was hoping that would help me feel worth it and help me to get back to working for what I want.

I think you’re spot on with the ideal outcome. Maybe another part of it is more than acceptance, it’s realising that it will take continuous effort to maintain a resilient level of feeling good enough. And I know that sounds like really hard work. But maybe in time it will become your default setting. You’ve had enough determination to stick with the challenge, and also shared all on your blog. That takes strength.
