Some people just seem to find life easy, and bounce from one accomplishment to another. Conversely, others struggle with everything they do, and can always give you a reason why life is so difficult. Attitude is most often what separates the victors from the victims.

When embarking on a slimming regime, it’s critical to take on the outlook of the victor to get your result. Feebly attempting a weight-loss plan without taking responsibility for the outcome will put you in the ‘victim’ camp. However a victor has already visualised his or her success mentally before the reality catches up.

Let’s envision we’re on court for a tennis finale. We listen to the players before the start – One player says the outcome is now in the lap of the gods, whereas his opponent states “I am destined to be the champion!” Guess who’ll win the tournament?

If we split up the word OAR we have the definition of a victor – someone who takes Ownership of his/her task, is Accountable for their actions and assumes Responsibility for getting it done. The victim can be defined by the term BED – one who stays in bed and gives up. BED = Blame, Excuses and Denial.

Taking ownership of an assignment is the hallmark of a victor. A victor likes to be accountable for everything he does – a problem solver not a problem maker. He doesn’t take excuses from himself and is responsible for the outcome of his activities.

On the other hand the victim will always have an explanation for his lack of achievement. It’s always someone else’s fault – he feels out of control so justifies it by blaming someone else. So he can always find an excuse for his lack of accomplishment. The victim is in complete denial after a while, assured that he has no option but to put up with this situation.

A mental overhaul is no bad thing for anyone looking to address weight management issues. To really embrace the health-enhancing program, any traces of the victim syndrome have to be wiped out.

Both sets of attitudes are just habits, and with constant repetition, habits can be changed. When you’re alone with your thoughts, are you thinking like a victim? If the answer is yes, then take control right away. Achievers are just like the rest of us – except they’ve conquered their demons and taken control.

We’re not victors from the day we’re born – we become a victor by working on our attitude. To achieve the weight and health we want, we must adopt the right frame of mind. Then we become capable of anything!

Dry skin is quite often sensitive as well, which just makes it harder to deal with. Dry sensitive skin feels taut because of the deficiency of natural oils and has a tendency to develop small expression lines that will eventually become wrinkles. Moreover, this kind of skin makes one more liable to allergic reactions, rashes, capillaries breaking and sudden flushes. Therefore, the taking care of dry sensitive skin proves quite a challenge at times. It is worth stating the fact that it afflicts people regardless of age, colour or gender.

You have to follow rigorous steps in your choice of cleansing, moisturising and make up products if you have dry sensitive skin to care for. First of all, you need to reduce the amount of products you put on your skin. The fact is, the more chemicals you come into contact with, the bigger the chance of developing rashes. The products ought to be fragrance-free and hypo-allergenic so that you don’t get red, irritation blotches. Blusher and foundation could present some difficulties for dry sensitive skin.

Try not to use too much make-up in order to allow your skin to breathe adequately. When you are shopping for make up, other than looking for the hypo-allergenic label, you should also try to make sure that they are oil-free. Foundation and blusher should be water-based because they won’t clog your pores. Furthermore, oil-absorbing foundations are not recommended for dry sensitive skin, because they will make your epidermis even drier.

It is also not to be recommended that you use exfoliants or astringent products on dry sensitive skin because they can irritate the thin epidermis. The same thing must be said in relation to washing – too frequent washing of the face means eliminating the natural oils that lubricate the skin, which will result in an accelerated dryness.

Furthermore, your day-time moisturiser should have a sun-protection factor (SPF) of at least 15 incorporated into it. However, although you may enjoy sunbathing, dry sensitive skin does not really permit you to enjoy such outdoor, skin-parching pleasures.

Don’t expose dry sensitive skin to the sun in order to tan it, because you will only achieve premature ageing and maybe even quite serious health problems. And last but not least, a warning must be given that you should change some of your cosmetic products for others.

If you decide that you should to switch to another skincare brand, it is very important that you test the product on a small patch of skin in order to test whether it triggers any negative manifestations.
