There are very few people in Generation Y that don't know what a "selfie" is. Just in case you are one of those individuals-a selfie, according to webster dictionary, is a photograph that one has taken of oneself, typically one taken with a smart phone or webcam and uploaded to a social media website.
Yes, for those who are unaware, "selfie" IS an actual word that can be found in the dictionary.That is how big of a fad these selfie pictures have become.
The great thing about selfies is that they can be exactly what the definition entails: all about you. There aren't any pressures, burdens or stresses involved in taking a selfie. You can take as few or as many as you'd like. There's no minimum, maximum, due date, etc. Selfies create a very quick boost in confidence, in basically any situation. Headed to school? Selfie. Did your makeup perfectly? Selfie. Doing homework? Selfie. Went to the gym? Selfie.
Selfies are a simple, fast, and a faint way of promoting positive self talk. They give you a chance to feel good about yourself. Ultimately, selfies don’t have to be about the number of likes likes or comments you receive on your picture. Sure, everyone enjoys a bit of admiration and appreciation, but these pictures are also about your relationship with yourself. You don’t have to apologize or feel guilty for being able to recognize and admire what you like about yourself.
So I really so encourage every one of you to go out, get ready, and take a selfie. Self confidence will make any good day a great day!!
