6 WAYS TO LOVE YOURSELF

 Many of us have been enslaved by others because we've lost sight of our real self and living in the personas created by people read on YOU ARE GOOD ENOUGH for more of this.

Pleasing people is a losing battle. When you focus on self-love and self-compassion, you build your self-esteem and that helps you form healthier and happier relationship with yourself and others. 

Loving yourself can be one of the hardest, yet most important things you’ll ever do. Honestly. your relationship with yourself is the most important and longest relationship you’ll ever have. It’s worth spending the time and effort to develop. 

Here is my list of ways to love yourself. 

1. KNOW YOURSELF

 

It’s impossible to love yourself if you don’t even know who you are. Invest in discovering what you believe, value, and like. Self-discovery may be one of the difficult or challenging step in finding self-love but it worth it.

2. DON'T COMPARE YOURSELF TO OTHERS

Others aren’t better or worse, more or less than you. They’re just different. You have value just as you are and accepting yourself means there’s no need for comparisons.

3. SAY NO WHEN YOU NEED TO

Boundaries are an essential form of self-care because they let others know that you deserve and expect respect. Don't be too accessible to people.

4. KNOW AND USE YOUR STRENGTHS

 We all have incredible gifts, but many of them go unnoticed. When you’re busy and distracted it’s hard to access these great qualities. Focusing on your strengths will increase your positive feelings for yourself. 

5. BE HONEST WITH YOURSELF

 

This can be harder than it seems. Some of us are so good at self-deception that we don’t even know we’re doing it. Honesty is key in all relationships and your relationship with yourself is no different.

Frankly, you can’t love your entire messy self if you’re lying, minimizing, or making excuses. True self-love means taking responsibility and accountability.

6. GIVE YOURSELF A TREAT

A treat is something special that you just give yourself. It could be anything special unlike a reward, it doesn’t have to be earned. Be good to yourself. Go out and chill if that makes you feel good. Give yourself the best there is.
