IN A WORLD WHERE YOU CAN BE ANYTHING...
IN A WORLD WHERE YOU CAN BE ANYTHING...
There's a lot of talk these days about being kind to others, and it's so true.
We really need more kindness in the world, especially right now.
Many are struggling to fight their way through this twilight zone year.
But all too often we put our focus on displaying kindness to others and completely forget to extend ourselves the same courtesy.
Negative comments and an unkind attitude towards us can do a huge amount of damage to our self-esteem. And for all those people who have criticized you in the past, the one person who has treated you the worst is most likely you.
Nobody talks to you the way that you talk to yourself.
Yes, the negative self image may have started with the way you were treated by others, but then it was YOU that took that opinion as true and began to repeat it to yourself over and over. Whether you realize it or not...your subconscious heard it each time.
Do yourself a favor today...
Decide to only talk to yourself with positive words of encouragement and love.
Decide to focus your attention on all those simple things that you do right every single day. You know... the stuff you have taken for granted and actually stopped noticing.
And when you do something wrong today(because we ALL will at some point) make a conscious decision to skip the part where you beat yourself up and go straight to the part where you LEARN something and move forward more knowledgeable and more resourceful.
This small upgrade in your thinking applied consistently and repeatedly might make a bigger change in the way you feel than you would expect.
You only have one mind for the rest of your life.
Treat it with kindness. First and foremost.
