SELF LOVE
Hello dear friends, I hope you are very well and that you are making the most of your week. Today I want to talk about a topic that sometimes we overlook, "SELF LOVE ", I believe that before anything else we must know ourselves and love ourselves as we are. Many times we ourselves are the ones who hit ourselves with harsh words and thoughts and that is something we must change, if we do not like something, let's look for a way to change it, but that does not mean that we must verbally attack ourselves.
Words and thoughts are very important, if we think and believe it, it becomes a REALITY FOR US, that is why modifying our thoughts and attitudes is something necessary to be really happy.
For me, self-love is a mental and emotional state in which we MUST FEEL GOOD WITH OURSELVES, WITH OUR BODY, WITH OUR SKILLS, WITH EVERYTHING WE ARE. It is something that we must exercise daily and not let others harm us with their way of thinking and seeing life.
There are steps we can take to learn to LOVE OURSELVES, we must remember that we come first and that our good mental health is paramount.
Saying YES to the things and moments we love is good, we should not feel bad for wanting to feel good and take advantage of life, not everything can be work or worries, living life is what we should have in mind, but in all areas. ALLOW YOURSELF A REST, we all at some point need distraction, entertainment or simply a quiet day, life is about living it doing what we like or at least I think so.
Forget all our mistakes, nobody is perfect and we do not have to be the exception, sometimes we are very hard with our mistakes but there is always a new opportunity, in fact mistakes are necessary to learn and gain experience. That makes us GROW AND BE BETTER PEOPLE.
FEEL PROUD OF YOURSELF, each achievement is an important moment that we must take into account, small goals lead us to big GOALS.
BE KIND TO OURSELVES AND ACCEPT OUR EMOTIONS, those words that sometimes we say to others to make them feel better we should use them on ourselves first of all. Talk to ourselves in the best way and love everything we do, and if we make a mistake we can always get something good out of it.
NOT COMPARE OURSELVES, this is something very common, sometimes we idialize a person and we try to be identical to them, but the truth is that we are all different and each one has something interesting to contribute in this life. This can generate a lot of stress, we must learn to love ourselves as we are and not pretend to be like other people, each person has their ESSENCE. We are all UNIQUE!!! :)
Thank you very much for reading my publication!
Remember that there is always something you can contribute and that no one can take away your essence.
hello @franyeligonzalez,
one of the things we need in life is self-esteem, knowing how to say yes or no to anything allows us to develop self-esteem not to mention that our culture makes us believe that failure is synonymous with a failed person, based on that belief we criticize ourselves in a very harsh way, we must understand that we are all different and that each person has their own path in life.
To be able to love others and to love humanity at large, we must first love ourselves. The love that shows on the outside must first come from the inside.
Nice piece dear friend
You have shared a very powerful message here. Selflove should always come first in anything and everything. No one will do the loving for us as a task. And self love begins with taking and accepting all our strength and weaknesses just as we are, and putting effort in making ourself a better person. By doing this, we will always derive happiness.
