Announcing the Winner – Operational Beautiful Giveaway

2010 August 16
by Grace Boyle

Last week, I was happy to host a giveaway for a very inspirational (and true) book, Operation Beautiful.

Today, (via Random.org) I’m announcing the winner and it goes to Meagan Kelly! The book is en route to you, Meagan.

Thank you to everyone who contributed. I hope the book and blog touched you. I was particularly touched by everyone’s comments as I asked each of you to tell me what you would say on your very own Operation Beautiful Post-It.

Here is Meagan’s:

Just because you don’t look like the girls you see in magazines, doesn’t mean you’re not beautiful!
I included a few others that caught my eye:
Love now.
Worry later.
No more comparing yourself to others. Be you and be proud!
You are strong, capable, resilient, extraordinary and loved. Put those worries aside!
Positive thoughts lead to positive actions – you can do it!
Good way to start the Monday off, right? I encourage everyone who commented to put their post-it idea on their own mirror and anyone else, to share the love of support, resilience and beauty on mirrors across the world.

Note: It has been asked, but author Caitlin Boyle and I are not related, although she does have a fantastic last name :)

    Those are great, nice work everyone. And thanks for hosting Grace.

    I particularly loved Rebecca Hansen's from her blog Drunk Literature – “You are a beautiful woman, own it.” Seems like it was impactful for her.

    That's also what I tell FIWK co-author Scott every day. (Yes, I am reusing that joke.)
