Power Of Self Love

As I began to love myself, I freed myself of anything that is no good for my health, food, people, things, situations, and everything that drew me down and away from myself.

At first, I called this attitude a healthy egoism.

Today I know it is

"LOVE OF ONESELF"

-Charlie Chaplin

Do you know what makes you so elated and gratified? When you love yourself and to be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment because if you don't love yourself first you'll never feel like anyone else does either. We are so willing to love others, Yet resistant to love ourselves first.

Self-love is so important to us because when you are all alone and lonely, and you are lying on the floor unhappy and crying and wishing it would end, you know who's going to be there for you? You. You have to pick yourself up and find the strength to carry on, because at the end of the day, nobody's with you but you have yourself, you're all you've got.

Self-love is important to living well. It influences you who you pick for a mate, the image you project at work, and how you cope with the problems in your life.

Self-love is not simply a state of feeling good. It is a state of appreciation for oneself that grows from actions that support our physical, psychological, and spiritual growth.

The way we are able to love ourselves sets the tone for the way we love others and essentially the way we show others how to love us. If we treat ourselves with little care it is opening the door for others to think it’s ok to treat us with little care. That being said the opposite holds true as well. If we hold our standards of love for ourselves high then others learn to treat you with that same amount of love and care.“Self-love harbors lifetimes of happiness and prosperity, inspiring growth and positive change for the world around you and the generations after you,”

Be brave enough to take off the mask you wear out there and get to know who you are underneath. Be vulnerable enough to accept your flaws, know that they are what make you real. Don’t minimize them or hide them. And be confident enough to accept and cherish your strengths. Give yourself the same care, value, and attention you give to others and watch yourself bloom.

Know Your Worth Always

Be clear on how you want to be treated. Love yourself and know your worth, Always.

"You can always hold out for something better when you know your self-worth" -Bryant McGill

Know your worth always, value yourself always, treat yourself good always. Love yourself so much that when someone tries to defame you and treats you wrong, you recognize it and you should know where you have to stand. Never settle anything less than you don't deserve!

Remember, you teach people how to treat you.

Love yourself enough to set boundaries, your time and energy are so precious so you should have to choose how to use it. Be the best version of yourself and never look at yourself with disgust, you are beautiful, Yes you are! My Friend, you are too beautiful to not feel good about yourself. You may not be exactly what you want to be in life, But your worth isn't determined by success, body, or maybe what others think of you.

You are worthy because you are you so hold your head high and start loving yourself right now.
