| What kinds of things run through you | | | | about it and making it happen to you. |
| mind when preparing for the beauty | | | | You are not helping yourself to win, |
| pageant? What do you think about on | | | | instead those statements and questions |
| stage? How about before/during a judging | | | | are just making you worry about "what |
| interview? What runs in your mind? Some | | | | if" something bad happens. This |
| of the most common worries that I gather | | | | negativity shows through in everything |
| from being at the backstage of beauty | | | | you do, whether it's through your smile, |
| pageants are these? I hope my dress is | | | | eye contact or GLOW. So what should I |
| ok. Is my smile looking sweet? Will they | | | | do? Instead, what pageant winners train |
| like me? What if I trip and fall? Are | | | | themselves to think about is: I have the |
| you sure they won't boo me? Are you | | | | best looking dress out here tonight. It |
| asking these kinds of questions to | | | | makes me perfect The judges will all |
| yourself? Chances are you have! And | | | | eyes on me only. Everyone is just |
| guess what? You might be upset with me | | | | mesmerized by my every move. My |
| but I have to tell this straight on! | | | | interview went amazingly well. Say these |
| These are the kinds of things pageant | | | | to yourself over and over like a mantra. |
| LOSERS think about. Sorry for being so | | | | Sink them deep into your mind. Live like |
| blatantly blunt, but it's true. Let's | | | | one, stand like one, talk like one and |
| face it, there is only going to be one | | | | feel like one! Positive comments to |
| winner. Everyone else is going to lose, | | | | yourself like these are what it takes to |
| but there is one thing that is | | | | put yourself into a pageant winner mind |
| guaranteed. The winner of the pageant is | | | | set. Sure, they may look a little |
| going to have completely DIFFERENT | | | | boastful, but remember, you ARE NOT |
| thought running through their head. So | | | | saying these things to other pageant |
| what exactly goes on in a winner's mind | | | | contestants, just repeating them to |
| as oppose to a loser's mind set? Simple, | | | | yourself before and during the pageant. |
| it's thinking about the positive rather | | | | Change this one little thing and next |
| than the negative. Look at the comments | | | | time you WILL SEE dramatic improvements |
| above again (which are what most | | | | in your pageant results. So that's why I |
| contestants think about). These are all | | | | say, You CAN WIN YOUR NEXT PAGEANT with |
| negative thoughts. You are thinking | | | | just a little change in your thoughts! |
