Self-love Weekly Series Day 1 🍃
Welcome to day 1 of my weekly series with topic Self-love! Its such a great topic isnt it?
Many of us tend to forget or think we dont deserve self-love. Some of us dont know how to apply it on us. Thats understandable because we tend to be so harsh on ourselves, and criticize us so much.
Think for a second:
How would you treat your best friend? I guess not as harsh as you treat yourself right?
Todays challenge:
Write in the comments one thought you have that is against self-love. Now think your best friend is saying this to themselves. What would you tell them?
My example:
"You are not doing enough. You are lazy and you dont pick yourself up. You are finding excuses the whole time, its pathetic."
If my best friend thought that I would say:
You are doing as much as you can. You are not lazy nor you find excuses. You are not pathetic. Its okay to not have it all figured out. You go through so much. You dont need to push yourself and make it worse.
Now try to apply this to you. Whenever you catch yourself criticizing you, find a positive answer to give to yourself.
Cant wait to see your comments. ✨️
Ps: Pssst. You matter. 😝
my usual thoughts: "It's just... Everytime I try to sound cool or myself. I always end up sounding more weird and outright offensive! I can't help if my speech sounds monotonous!"
(perspective-shifted) answer: "Perhaps it's the way you phrase things, you know? Many people wouldn't understand until you clarify. I know cause I am borderline with my words and can't force a smile on my face... But, you should try expressing your words in some manner. Be it punctualities or use of emojis in texts likewise."

Great shift! Being more gentle rather than harsh is better.
Do you think using this will help you?
