Learning how to love yourself and be confident it’s not an easy thing to do. But it’s a must if you want to live the happy life you desire. How can you expect to live a happy and fulfilling life if you’re not happy with yourself?
Sometimes the image you have of yourself it’s not actually true. It’s mostly made up by your limiting beliefs you gathered over the years.
If you’re looking to gain confidence and self esteem you first have to make peace with yourself.
You keep hearing and reading everywhere that you should love yourself but you have no idea how to start? Check out these tips for gaining more confidence, build self esteem and learning to LOVE YOURSELF!
Say I Love You!
You treat others with so much care and you do anything you can to make them happy. But what happens when it comes to you?
How come you treat others so nicely but you’re always hard with yourself? Learn to love, respect and appreciate yourself. Treating your body with love and care and always taking care of yourself should become a daily habit for you.
If you don’t love yourself how can you expect others to do it? How can you expect them to do something that you’re not doing?
Go in front of the mirror, take a good look at yourself. Take as much time as you need. Forgive yourself for any mistakes you’ve made and say “I love you”. YES to yourself!
Make Peace With Yourself
Some time ago I spoke with a friend who told me “I like how I think but I don’t like myself.” When I asked him “why don’t you like yourself?” He said “because of my weaknesses”.
He’s a great guy with a lot of potential but his attitude toward himself drag him down.
The most important thing you must do in life is to be happy with who you are. And happiness won’t come by hating yourself. Focusing on your weaknesses and letting them drag you down it’s not the way to go. You’ll only amplify them.
Learn To Love Your Body
Look… you have this body you live in. A body that keeps you alive every single day. Stop hurting yourself. We all have good parts and not so good ones. Learn to love both and work on improving every day. Work on what you can change!
So you want to lose weight? Well that weight won’t just vanish over night while you’re eating unhealthy food lying down on the couch. Get active!
Stop finding reasons not to do it and limiting yourself. Pick an activity you’d like and do it. Change your eating habits too.
Switch to a healthier lifestyle. Of course it’s much easier to find reasons not to do it, blame it on others, not make a change and continue to feel depressed and miserable but… it’s your choice how you want to spend your life.
You have to want it bad enough to really put some work in. It won’t happen over night. It will take some time but YOU CAN do it!
Be Yourself, The Real YOU!
Stop trying to be someone you’re not, trying to fit in what others think, want or need. You are unique!
Every day, every moment you keep on searching for validation from others to be something you don’t even like, just to fit in. To feel accepted.
And all of these for people you might not even like and who won’t give a damn about you.
Let your true light sparkle and surround yourself with people who like you for who you really are. And yes! Those wonderful people do exist. But you won’t find them by wasting your time with the ones who drag you down.
