Too Nice? 5 Reasons to Invoke Your Bad Girl

Stephanie Modkins
Being a good girl has its drawbacks. Friends always need favors. Family often asks for loans. And, the boss tends to be 'extra' bossy. For these reasons (and more), on certain occasions, you should invoke your bad girl. We all have one. She's the gal inside of you who curses while waiting at the DMV, eats a few grapes on the side in the grocery store and refuses to let 'mom' dictate her every move. You need to let her take charge when being 'nice' isn't helpful and being 'bad' is good. Invoke your bad girl when . . .

Sex is dull.

Your bad girl won't think about church hymns or scripture while trying to get her freak on. She is willing to experiment, forget about body flaws and other hang-ups. Help bring her out by creating a sexy alter ego with a hot name like Cherry or Sasha.

People are scary.
Are you afraid to speak in public or ask the boss for raise? Channel your bad girl. She is fearless and understands that 'people are people.' You are good enough and don't have to worry about giving a little speech in front of a bunch of corporate stiffs or asking money from someone who couldn't run the office without you.

Saying no is hard.

Unfortunately, most women have difficulty saying, "no". We would rather lie and make up a silly excuse than reject a request from another human being. As a result, we end up doing things we hate like babysitting for a family member on a Saturday or attending a birthday party with gift in hand for a person we hate. By allowing your bad girl to rise up, you can say no with more ease. She isn't worried about pleasing everyone or the backlash of a disappointed co-worker, friend or family member.

You want change.

What is the difference between a successful happy woman and a downtrodden sad one - change. People who enjoy life and get what they want understand that change is not their enemy and exact it when necessary. Your bad girl will face twists and turns without any issue. She can kick out that freeloading pretty boy and live by herself or give him an ultimatum to get a job in 30 days.

You need help.

The best part of your bad girl is that she is honest. She doesn't have to fib about secret desires or dark emotions. She will tell a counselor what she (or he) needs to know to provide effective help. Your bad girl will also challenge herself to do the work - even though it's hard.

Did you find a reason to invoke your bad girl? Let her become a part of your world. She will give you the strength to be a well-rounded woman who is strong and able to take care of herself.
