I knew this fella to say hello to as he was a friend of a friend. 6ft, Athletic, sporty captain of the rugby team in school. Even as a straight guy you had to admit the fecker was extremely good looking. Wealthy parents too so he was never short of cash but he wasn't spoilt by them. He was down to earth and knew the value of money. He also seemed like a really nice guy. The one consolation about his luck with the genetics lottery was that I assumed he wasn't too intelligent. I had always assumed he was in the pass classes in school because those were the classes the friend was in and I assumed thats how these two lads knew each other. About 8 years after school I am in St Vincents for an operation. Who walks into the ward but this fella, still handsome as fcuk, still 6ft and athletic........and giving a consult to a patient. He was a fcuking Doctor!! Turns out he was a straight A student on top of everything else. Jammy jammy barsteward!!

Do you have any idea how much thought has to go into being good looking. You become incredibly self conscience that you are not looking you best, and that people will see you for how you see yourself. Sure you know you are attractive but it really is not as amazing as you think. It can be very hard to relax and if you embarrass yourself you feel it 20 times worse. Although obviously it has its benefits, but you do get treated so badly by a lot of people. You constantly have to prove that you are not just your looks.

One guy in particular popping into my head here absolutely idolises my Cheryl Cole-esque friend (she's jaw-droppingly hot) but will ignore any of the rest of us that are with her, to the point of rudeness. And on my last flight,I was looking a little rough as I'd had a really late night and early morning, no make up, hair tied back, etc. I was seated beside two D4-stereotype lads, who completely brushed me off when I tried to make conversation with them, they were so snobby to me, made me feel like I wasn't worthy of their conversation.

What he meant to say was, exposing yourself to situations/submerging yourself in challenging situations. That situation that your terrified of, you just throw yourself into it and work with what you got. It's a huge challenge. And it's surmounting this challenge that gives us belief in ourselves (confidence), because we've done something that we were afraid of and we used our strength and determination to get through it. It's not knowing you could do something, but actually doing it, that matters. ** Find something to challenge yourself and then just throw yourself into that situation. For me; I was such a quiet and basically non-confident, if that's the word, guy at 17. I left home then and realized I was in the big bad world and had to make a life for myself. So I realized the above, that I had to do something to challenge myself and give myself a good sense of self worth if I was going to have a good life. My first step was actually just that - leaving home. Being alone, away from my family and friends, that was a situation I just had to throw myself into, as does everyone really at some point - and learning how to cope with that, that made me a stronger person. ** I guess that loneliness, in a sense, is a great motivator. Pain is a great motivator. One of the ways I coped with it was by developing good qualities as a human. I was never athletic - but I knew it was a great quality to have, so one evening I went down to a local boxing gym. I was so intimidated going in the door, but I just got stuck in and got to work and stayed focused and I really owe everything in my life to that. It's brought me around the world and every time I step in the ring it's a new challenge, one that I learn from and gain strength from.

Possibly a youtube clip of a Christina Aguilera song. Not sure yet. Anyway, lets carry on and ignore that silly distraction for now.
