I am finally here at the Honor Academy and I know it is going to be everything that I hoped/ worked for and more! As I said in my last post, I have several goals that I am really believing God is going to help me accomplish, one of those goals being that I WILL overcome insecurity in the year of 2013. I may not overcome every part of insecurity but I will see a drastic turn around in my life, I refuse to see anything less!
For years now I have struggled with all kinds of insecurity, but one of the main ones is my weight. I have never thought that I was thin enough or I was attractive enough so I hid it by wearing jeans and tshirts every day. A couple of weeks before I left home for the Honor Academy, my mentor (praise God for mentors) told me that you feel how you dress. In other words, if I go around dressed like a bum, I'm going to feel like an unattractive bum. However, if I dress like a beautiful woman, I will feel like a beautiful woman. After she told me that I began to make extra efforts to dress myself a little better, it was only baby steps but it WAS a step. Little did I know that at the Honor Academy, you have to dress nice for EVERYTHING (besides corporate workout). I was a little concerned about that at first but you know what, this morning I dresed myself with boldness and confidence in who I was and how I looked. Is the insecurity of my self image gone? No, but it is decreasing and it will continue to leave more and more as I continue to present myself as the beautiful young woman that God sees in me!

Time to Go to Work
The big day is here! I arrived in Texas last night, and today I begin my internship at the Honor Academy. I want to say thank you to everyone who has supported me so far and everyone who will continue to support me as the year goes on. I am so excited and a little nervous to see what this year will bring. The work begins now, I have several personal goals for this year and I know God has His own goals for my life as well. It's going to take a lot of work to accomplish it all but I am confident that through Him, the goals will be reached.
