!: most importantly if you are going to be Brittney Hougaard you must try to maintain a postive outlook at all times. For instance your best friend is shitting on you, your ex is with-holding your shit and you have like a shit ton of homework to do and no free time. Well too the fuck bad you smile god damn you. This a relatively new step to being Brittney. One that came about one day as I sat on the couch crying to my mom about how sad I was. She looked at me and said sometimes you just have to fake it until you make it. So I did and I am. I faked it until I made it. She also mentioned something about the importance of reinventing yourself from time to time, this does not mean you change who you are, that will always stay the same. It simply means if you want to be one of those people who is happy all the time and just generally positive then be that way. So I did. Therefore while this may be a new step it is definitely the most important. The reason for this is if you are sad what good does that do you? if you're mad who does that hurt? No one but yourself thats who. and being sad is only going to further drag down your mood. Therefore Happiness is a key part of the Art of Being Brittney.
2: Hair. Anyone who knows me knows that there is one thing that I love about me and that is my hair. Granted this may sound self centred but who the fuck cares I love my hair. I admit sometimes I would love to just shave it off but the truth is I would cry my eyes out and mourn my luscious locks for a long ass time. :) They key is a good blow out. Round brush that shit! On days when the blow out is not being felt you curl. Curled hair is not only exceptionally sexy it is also a good way to make yourself feel gorgeous. Plus it adds volume making your hair appear super thick and who doesnt want thick hair. The color of your hair does not really matter all that matters is the style. Also important do not let your hair just lay flat on your back or even worse directly over your chest like a beard. No the hair must be brought to the front and left to hang on the sides think armpit area, but please ladies we do not want hair that smells like gym socks. Figure your shit out. The hair should act as a beautiful frame for your boobs <3
3:Body Language. Now this step may sound similar to step one in that the idea is to come off as a positive open minded person but trust me it is entirely different. Do not sit with your arms crossed scowling at the world. Instead you should always have shoulders back arms to the side resting easily on your lap anywhere but directly in front of you creating a arm wall between you and the rest of the world. Lets face it no one wants to walk up to someone and start a conversation if you dont look approachable. Generally what this says (the open body language) is hey Im a nice person open to new experiences and people.
4: Know who you are. Brittney knows who she is and you can tell by the way she carries herself. I will not stoop down to anyones level because that's not who I am. If you are true to who you are as a person eventually everything will work out the way its suppose to. If you're pretending to be someone you're not you're gonna get stuck with someone elses life. It is fixable in my belief but it will take longer.
5: Honesty. BE HONEST. To yourself, to family, to friends, to strangers, everyone. If you have feelings for a guy tell him. If you do whats the worst that can happen? he says he doesnt feel the same? so what what, if thats what happens then it obviously wasnt meant to be. Sure it'll be embarrassing for about a minute but in the end you were honest with yourself and with him, in the end only positive things will happen if you are honest. IMPORTANT: do not use honesty as an excuse to be mean. When I say be honest I dont mean tell some guy whos into you uh not in a million years because you're kind of a loser. Remember the point of honesty is to breed positivity, being mean will never bring you positivity or anyone else.
6: Kindness. Try to be nice to everyone, this is sometimes easier said than done but never the less it is important.
Remember the point of these steps is to bring positivity to life (maybe with the exception of the hair thing thats not gonna do much more than make you feel super awesome) therefore if you find a situation where the steps will not bring positivity tweak it. Remember life is yours to create this is just what I have created some self rules that I believe will bring me happiness and positive experiences in the future and present and it may even put the past in a more positive light.
Last but not least;
BE BRAVE, LOVE LIFE
