MINIMIZE/REMOVE EMOTIONAL CONNECTION TO THE BODY By this I mean that when a judge provides their feedback, do not at all take it as a personal attack. Judges feedback is intended to help you improve your stage physique show to show, not to tear you down or make you feel worthless.

Be proud of all your physical and mental successes!
