Self-Love Is Not About This

Have you forgotten yourself? Have you abandoned yourself? If you have, you are not alone.

But you can reconnect with your life. You can be with yourself again. You can make your life matter again.

To do that, you have got to love everything about your life. Everything starts with self-love, but it doesn’t end there.

Because self-love is your foundation. It is your pillar. If you are okay with yourself, you will be okay with other people. But it doesn’t mean that everything is going to be perfect, that you are not going to face challenges.

That is not the point. The point is that things are going to happen. Some you can take care of. Others you are going to need other people to help you out.

But when you are in love with who you are, you can face anything. You can put yourself together, no matter what.

You can love yourself, no matter what is going on in your life. When in doubt, remember that self-love is not about being perfect.

Self-love is about being comfortable with your imperfections. It is about being okay with who you are. It is being alive. It is about loving yourself, whether things are going well with you, or you are just getting by.

It is about having the courage to be with yourself, to see the world around you in a new way.

Self-love is about knowing that other people are different, that they are going to act in different ways, that you are going to accept them, no matter what.

Self-love is not about self-abuse. It is about self-respect. It is about self-care.

It is not about being arrogant. It is not about being who you are not. It is not about thinking you are better than other people.

Self-love is your inner voice that is always there for you, especially when things are tough.

Self-love is about allowing yourself to fail, to make mistakes.

Self-love is about having the courage to do what you love, not what people want you to do.

Self-love is about enjoying the little things around you. It is being in the moment. It is about making your moments count.

So if you want to stay in love with yourself, you must work really hard to keep loving yourself.

As always, you are more, not less!

How To Keep Your Power

If you want to take charge of your life, if you want things to get better for you, you have to keep your power alive. Do not give your power away.

The only thing you can control is yourself, meaning your power. When it comes to your power, you must do whatever you can to keep it alive.

If you do not have it, you do not have anything. You need your power to keep going.

Your power is your strength. It is who you are. It is your thoughts. It is your feelings. It is your emotions. It is your actions.

Your power is your character. It has nothing to do with material power. It has everything to do with you, with how you live your life, with how you see the world around you.

You are powerful when you are in control of yourself. You are even more powerful when you are in control of your thoughts, of your feelings, of your emotions, and of your actions.

You are powerful when you are in charge of your decisions, your decisions to take risks, more risks, to follow your heart, your passion, to live your values.

You are powerful when you do not sweat the little things, when you do not fight for small life, when you do not allow small-minded people to ruin your day, when you do not give in to your fears, when you don’t try to control other people, when you have the courage to think positive thoughts, and when you have the courage to live your life.

So, whatever it is that is trying to ruin your day, that is trying to confuse you, to make you unhappy, to create a different you, you must stay calm. Focus on you, on what is most important to you.

Because your power is how you behave when things are not going well, not when things are okay.

The question is, ‘Do you have the courage to embrace your power?’
