There is no way to self-improvement and strength but by loving and celebrating yourself, your life, your accomplishments in the present moment.
Stop complaining. stop fighting for what is not yours. You are not perfect. Instead of trying to be perfect, why not focus on improving your life. If you can do that for yourself, it will help you a lot. It will bring peace and harmony into your life.
Epictectus once said, “If you wish to improve yourself, be content to be seen as ignorant or clueless about some things.”
What you know is your power. So do not worry about what you do not know. But it does not mean you should ignore it. But do not let it bother you.
Remember that life is not going to give you everything. So do not worry about what is not there. You have a lot going well for you. Focus on them. Reflect on them. Celebrate them. Sharon Salzberg says, “When you recognize and reflect on even one good thing about yourself, you are building a bridge to a place of kindness and caring.” She is right.
If you want to enjoy your life, if you want to make peace with your inner self, you must learn how to reflect on what is going well for you. When you do that, you will have more to celebrate.
Who are you? What are you doing here? Are you here for you? Whether you know why you are here or not, you are here for yourself. You are here for you. Because if you are not here for yourself, no one is going to be here for you. You need you than others need you. So why do you need you?
You need you to…
Improve your life. Because if you do not improve yourself, no one is going to improve you. It is your responsibility to take care of yourself. Whatever you can do to make your life better, you must do it. Do not wait for anyone to do it for you. Abraham Lincoln once said, “The way for a young man to rise is to improve himself in every way the can…” If you have the courage to do what you fear, you will improve. You will grow. You will live a meaningful life.
You need you to…
Figure out how to live. It is not enough to be alive. It is your responsibility to know why you are here, what you are doing here, where you are going with your life, and if you are progressing. Remember, you are not here to exist; you are here to live your life. To do that, you must first figure out how to live. Abraham Lincoln said, “If we could first know where we are, and whether we are tending, we could then better judge what to do, and how to do it.” Wherever you are going, assess where you are before you make any move.
You need you to…
Change your life. You need you to figure out what you want to do with your life. Remember that you are responsible for changing your life. No one can change you. It is you who can change you. If you do not do it now, when are you going to do it? If you want things to change, you must do it for you. That is why you need you. According Jack Canfield, “It’s up to you to make the change, to do something different. The world doesn’t owe you anything. You have to create it.” Yes, that is why you need you. Because no one can create you. Only you can create you. Why not now?
You need you to…
Challenge you. Life full of different challenges. If you are not for you, if you are not here for you, if you are not doing what you are doing for you, you won’t be able to face life. And to win you must challenge yourself. Richard Branson says, “If you challenge yourself, you will grow. Your life will change. Your outlook will be positve. ” So if you want to grow, if you want to be successful, you must be there for you. You must do whatever you are doing for you, not for others.
