What do you do when you need a little ego boost?

Do you pamper yourself...talk with someone who makes you feel good...reflect on your past achievements...think about the blessings in your life?

I usually do all of the above...how about you? smile

I generally will spend longer than normal doing my hair, putting on make-up, selecting my outfit. Maybe wear fun jewelry I don't often.
And then make sure I go out and about so I can pull in the compliments. It's silly and petty, but you know what? It works.

I'm cooking great food. The smell of fresh vegetables, spices, always make me feel much better.

i do most of what you do apples ...

i also dig deep and stir up the settled crap within to sift through

working out my own troubles and "shit" boosts my ego the most

i enjoy the outside bosts like we all do but the ones that make me feel the best are the ones that come from within myself

I don't know about ego boost, but working my ass off at the gym always makes me feel better.

sorry to hear you're feeling low..changes upsets our balances. How about looking in the mirror (ala Al Franken) and saying this.."I'm the best me!...Noone else can be me, but me...I like me.."

Being happy doesn't mean that everything is perfect, it means you've decided to look beyond the imperfections... unknown

I try hard not to focus on my ego..

I like Mach like to boost my soul, rather than my appearance.

Put on my tight jeans, go to a bus stop full of women, face away from the crowd and stare at the road - but so that I can at the same time shrewdly see the women reflected from the plexiglass staring at my ass. lol

Hey, you said "ego boost".

I listen to my favourite songs, I even have a playlist on my Ipod dedicated to it! shrug I get down a lot!

Also all the girly stuff thats been mentioned, getting dressed up or even just more make up. I wear more make up if Im not feeling confident, just eye make up, and less when I am. I think I hide behind my eyelashes, lol...

I sit in the bathtub and ponder deeply my superiority over humanity, in general, and over everybody I know, more specifically.

Great thread! thumbs up!
Probably the biggest thing for an ego boost is a trip to the salon. Nothing says “I’m ready for the world” like a good makeover. Trust me on this people, when the world paints ugly colors, combat that by brightening your hair with fiery highlights, or streaks of golden Safire.
A lot of times, an hour with your stylist beats any crummy old 12 step program or pointless introspective approach to feeling better. rolleyes
Life’s got you feeling gray? Wash that gray right out of your hair at the salon. Bed Head Inc makes a great product called “Lusterizer” and that stuff is miraculous at reviving even the most drab, dry, over stylized hair. Trust me folks, when you’re hair is healthy, your inner beauty will shine through.
Also, buy a pair of nice jeans. My favorite jean designer is Levis Straus & Co. Their brand of premium jeans which you can obtain at their factory outlets or at boutique shops like Urban Outfitters, conform to anyone’s shape and makes you look great. Price ranges from $90 to &170 depending on the style and cut. Asses always look better in Levis if you ask me. The only ones that come close are Dolce and Gabanna, but with D&G you’re mostly paying for brand name recognition.
Finally, get some nice cologne (or perfume). Tried and true pleasers for the opposite sex for me are Aqua Di Gio (spelling?) and D&G. Close seconds are Burberry and for youthful zeal at low cost, OP Juice.
Finally, look at yourself in the mirror. Stop seeing someone ugly. That’s pointless and a waste of fucking time. Look at your nails? Do they need a trim? Damnit, then trim them. Got a grey hair here or there? Are you using carmax on your lips? Do it! Are you not smiling? Smiles are super attractive—I don’t care who you are. Everyone likes a smile.
Finally, don’t be afraid to step outside of your shell and try colors that match your skin. The trick here is that it doesn’t have to be your favorite color—it just has to match your skin. Don’t be afraid to wear pink if you rock it!
Too broke to afford new shoes? Stick your sneekers in the washer, and they’ll look like new. Get some wax and polish those old leather shows and they’ll look great.

The point is, everyone is beautiful, even if it takes a few hours to clean up.
