Simply Feminine � Surprising Insights from Men Wonderly, Morgan (best electronic book reader .TXT) 📖

Never compete with others. Instead, focus on self-development and only compete with yourself. No feelings of envy or jealousy come from that.

Try something new. Nothing opens us up more than something new, even if it’s driving home on a different route or trying a new recipe for dinner.

Read positive, uplifting books to quickly and easily change moods and outlook.

Attend personal development seminars, workshops, classes, and/or camps. We are living beings, and if we are not growing, we are dying. Growing is a lot more fun.

My Happiness Teacher

My happiness teacher is someone I grew up with. No matter what life throws her way, she maintains a great attitude. She laughs often and is full of fun. Everyone she meets is a new friend. She displays a high level of trust in others, and she always gives people the benefit of the doubt. She loves to joke around and tease. She never gossips or judges anyone. She has no fear of being judged. People are happy to see her because she radiates energy that brings a smile to everyone’s face. To me, she represents the best example of what is possible for humanity.

She is my big sister Ruth, who displays these wonderful qualities even though she suffered severe brain damage at birth. Her positive qualities are something we all have at our core, yet she naturally lets these qualities shine through without overcomplicating things, which could be seen as a blessing in disguise from her early-life incident. I am convinced she was put on this Earth as an angel to teach love and to be an example of how wonderful life can be. I feel blessed to have her as my sister. She smiles at me whenever I remind her that she is my happiness teacher.

Men Love Our Classiness

In talking with men, I find that they speak often about classiness in women. To men, being classy is much more than just the way we dress. It’s also about attitude. Classiness means making men feel good about themselves when they’re around us. Classiness is about making men feel masculine by treating them with respect, trust, and admiration. Classiness, according to men, means being a woman of quality who doesn’t resort to passive-aggressive, shaming, emasculating behavior, even in the midst of a heated disagreement.

Men seek women who value honesty and integrity. They want women who treat people with kindness and respect. For instance, if a woman thrives on gossip, a man will not trust her with his innermost thoughts and feelings.

By being honest with ourselves and our hearts, we will attract better quality men. An added benefit of being classy is having increased self-respect, which builds self-love. A quality man will move heaven and earth for a woman with a heart of gold.

Men Love Our Kindness

“Choose being kind over being right and you’ll be right every time.”

– Richard Carlson

While men’s natures tend to be direct and mission-oriented, heart attributes like kindness and compassion are part of our female nature from birth. While being “nice” can be faked, kindness cannot. Our natural kindness comes out when we see a tiny baby or newborn puppy. Men see kindness, sweetness, compassion, and empathy as desirable feminine traits. When men observe our sweetness, they are in awe. When we are warm and caring to others, they perceive us as more beautiful. Men are inspired by our compassion, and it makes them yearn to be near our sweet, loving energy.

It’s no accident that nature blessed women with an extra dose of heart qualities. We need these qualities because we are the gatekeepers of relationships. Women need kindness and compassion to nourish those closest with tender loving care. This creates fertile ground for others to grow and flourish. Never underestimate the influence of sweetness and gentleness! In addition to being wives and girlfriends, women are the mothers who nurture little boys and girls who will grow up to be our future men and women—what an incredibly important role! Men understand the undeniable treasure of mothers. They know that the hand that rocks the cradle is the hand that rules the world.

My kindergarten teacher read to our class one of Aesop’s fables called The North Wind and the Sun. It made an impact on me that I will never forget.

The North Wind boasted of great strength. The Sun argued there was great power in gentleness.

“We shall have a contest,” said the Sun.

Far below, a man traveled a winding road. He was wearing a warm winter coat.

“As a test of strength,” said the Sun, “let us see which of us can take the coat off of that man.”

“It will be quite simple for me to force him to remove his coat,” bragged the Wind.

The Wind blew so hard, the birds clung to the trees. The world was filled with dust and leaves. But the harder the wind blew down the road, the tighter the shivering man clung to his coat.

Then, the Sun came out from behind a cloud. Sun warmed the air and the frosty ground. The man on the road unbuttoned his coat.

The Sun grew slowly brighter and brighter.

Soon the man felt so hot, he took off his coat and sat down in a shady spot.

“How did you do that?” said the Wind.

“It was easy,” said the Sun. “I lit the day. Through gentleness I got my way.”

Men Love Our Authenticity

According to men, one of the most attractive attributes a woman can have is her confidence. And at the root of true confidence is the courage to be authentic.

Authenticity comes from a place inside that transcends ego, looking good, and people-pleasing. Quality men want genuineness in a woman, not games, tricks, or other manipulations. That’s why they don’t see arrogant women as being confident. Men usually see right through this fakeness, and it does not honor them as human beings who deserve our honesty. Instead, it’s a form of emasculation. If you can’t be honest with the man you’re with, why are you with him?
