Self Love and Worth
Hello,
I hope everyone’s week is off to a great start and that last week’s tips helped you gain some balance in your life. Striving for balance in life is reinforced by the self-love and worth we show ourselves, which is the topic I will be discussing this week. Showing appreciation and compassion for ourselves allows us to create the balance needed within our lives. At times we look for appreciation from others or even show appreciation to others; in doing this, we miss appreciating ourselves. Acknowledging ourselves gives us a chance to take time out to examine our achievements and create awareness of our goals. To embrace our self-love and worth, have an idea of standards for living, a sense of value, and confidence in abilities.
Below are a few tips that you can start doing today to help enhance your self-love and worth.
Tip #1: Focus on your needs:
A need is a requirement because it is essential or significant for you. Our needs are the helpers guiding us toward our satisfaction and fulfillment. This is why your needs should be your focus. At some point today, think about what you need to gain strength in love and worth for yourself. An example of meeting a need is going to bed at a reasonable time due to an early start the next day. Executing this standard of being in bed at a decent time allows your need for sleep to be fulfilled and results in happiness and refreshment for the next day. Fulfilling this need and others is something everyone will be able to sense, especially you!
Tip#2: Forgive yourself:
Having shortcomings or feelings of frustration and inadequacy is a part of life, but how we handle getting back up matters. Take time to ponder your hurt or wrongdoing; this will help you identify feelings and thoughts to verbalize, create action, and learn from. Forgiveness is a mindset of moving onward to make progress with purpose and understanding as we gain knowledge and grow. Not forgiving ourselves leads to self-shame and guilt, and we don’t need that extra baggage.
I recommend the Life Kit Podcast “Why forgiving others actually heals you.” Suppose you have difficulty forgiving yourself and others.
Tip #3: Be Mindful
Being mindful is to be aware or conscious of yourself, others, or something. Now that you have made yourself aware of your needs and are practicing forgiveness within yourself, it is time to stay mindful of these areas. Acting on the knowledge of yourself helps your ability to make decisions that support your intentions and goals that lead you to fulfillment and happiness.
Remember to take the time to show compassion and appreciation to yourself. Do this by being mindful of your standards of living, sense of value, and confidence in your abilities and worth. Please forgive yourself when you fall short by moving onward and progressing with knowledge and purpose.
