“To practice means to perform, in the face of all obstacles some act of vision, of faith, of desire.”- Martha Graham

You want to be successful. You want to change your life. You want to live a great life. You want to run a successful business. You want to marry the best person in the world. It sounds good. It feels good. But what do you have to offer in return? Are you willing to pay the price? Have you prepared? If you haven’t prepared enough, do not even think about it. If you know you have what it takes to do whatever it is you want to do, then go for it.

Life Isn’t About Searching For Love. Life Is About This One Thing

Love is about acceptance. If you don’t accept yourself. it simply means you don’t love yourself. And if you want to do great things in life, tie it to self-love. Because we cannot do anything productive with ourselves without self-love. It is the beginning of everything.

Self-love is self-acceptance. No matter what you are going through, no matter what people may have told you in the past, no matter what you are telling yourself, the best way forward is to love yourself. Learn to love yourself. Do not wait for other to love you. They are not going to do it for you. You are responsible for making yourself happy. You are responsible for giving yourself real love. So why not now?

Why not give yourself love now? Are you postponing your love? Remember that love is not something you postpone. It is something you give to yourself. It is something you practice every day. Love is not in the future. It is in the now, in the moment. If you are not loving yourself now, if you are not accepting yourself now, when are you going to have the courage, the confidence to practice self-love? When?

The answer is NOW! Because life is about giving ourselves love. It depends upon ourselves.
