Over
the years I have made many mistakes and taken numerous turnings on the road we
call life. I made choices that I
believed were right at the time, but the long term effect was that they were
not the best decisions I could have made.
During those years I got into experimentation with mind altering substances; I committed
acts that I am not proud of,; I got into financial difficulties and lost a
couple of houses. and I left the person that I love the most in the world while
she was expecting our first baby.
I
am not proud to have all those things in my past, and over time I have tried
several ways and attempts to “write the wrongs”
However,
I have now come to understand that all the decisions I have made in my life have
mafe me who I am today.
I
have tried to emulate other people that I viewed as being successful or having
life “sussed” but I have always fallen short of the mark so to speak. Sometimes my life has felt as it I was trying
to swim through custard!
However,
all of that being said, I have recently made some significant changes and as a
result of this, things are happening that I have previously only ever dreamed
about.
I
discovered that probably one of the greatest gifts you can give yourself is
“Self Love”. After all, if you can’t
love yourself then how on earth can you expect other people to love you?
So
I think that now is a good time to look at a few of the ways that we both
personally and as a global community can practice and benefit from Self Love.
Self
love brings with it a number of things - the 4 main ones being Self Worth; Self
Respect; Self Forgiveness and last but by no means least Self Confidence.
So
here is a short challenge for you
Make
a list of all the things you love about yourself
This
is important because you have to acknowledge yourself, and love yourself,
before you can truly give love back to other people
Having
made the above list now you also need to make a list of your flaws.
Making
these two lists helps you to embrace everything about yourself. Remember, nobody is perfect and the flaws that
you have listed are part of what makes you who you are
DO
NOT JUDGE YOURSELF FOR HAVING THOSE FLAWS instead, declare to the universe and
to yourself something like this:-
“Despite
all of my faults and flaws I love and respect myself all of the time”
Work
on your self care – ask yourself what you need to do to feel your best every
day and write down your answers.
What
will make you feel good about yourself all the time?
Stop
making comparisons between yourself and other people because you are on your
own path through this life.
Whatever
he or she does is their choice!
Learn
to understand that life is not a competition, there is sufficient room on this
earth for all of us.
Keep
a self love / gratitude journal every day.
And
finally
Compose
your own personal affirmation that is designed to make you feel powerful. Make it a “must” to repeat this phrase every
day without fail.
For
example
“I am a
child of the Universe and a being of ultimate love. Therefore, I choose to love and respect
myself today and every day!”
