Does Your Self-esteem need a Boost?

A simple question which will generally have a simple answer of, “of course, I love myself.” Do you really? We all say we love ourselves, however our actions towards ourselves often betray our true feelings. It might not be a conscious thing but, something that you do habitually. We talk to ourselves negatively; we eat poorly, don’t exercise and don’t exercise our brains constantly. We don’t even keep our spiritual connection intact. Do you engage in quiet time with yourself to relax and get centered? Some people don’t know how to be with themselves. They have to be in the company of others at all times. That is why some of them have to be in a relationship constantly. They have to have someone around to make them feel loved. They are completely missing the point that they must first love themselves.

Are you constantly doing for others and neglecting yourself? You may feel that you are doing good and it is the right thing to do. However, if you really thing about it, you are frustrated and even angry on the inside. You are thinking to yourself, “When do I get the time to do things for myself.” Please recognize that you are in control of you. You are the architect of your life. You must make time for yourself. No one will do it for you. Let me tell you a secret. No one will do for you unless you do for yourself. You must love yourself first before you can love someone else, I am talking real love.
