Command confidence
This document discusses confidence and body image issues. It notes that women are much more critical of their physical appearance than men. Most women want to change at least one aspect of their looks and many young girls fear being overweight. However, confidence can be improved by changing negative thought patterns and behaviors. The document provides examples of cognitive distortions like all-or-nothing thinking and jumping to conclusions. It recommends techniques like noticing thoughts and feelings, reflecting on long-term values, reframing self-talk, and making considered responses to build confidence.

Two thirds would prefer to be mean or stupid.” 2% of us actually think we are beautiful.”

Editor's Notes
- #4 And the problem begins very young, with 51% of 9 and 10 year-old girls admitting that feel better about themselves if they are on a diet. Lest this appear to be a problem of the young, among more senior women in midlife, the ones who could be stepping into top leadership positions, an even bleaker picture emerges. A mere 12% of women over 50 were satisfied with their bodies. In order to “feel better about themselves,” 78% of them said they spent almost an hour a day trying to improve their appearance. That adds up to two full weeks a year of primping.
