It is so easy to put yourself down and feel your self confidence shake nowadays. I always compare myself to how others are living, or how they look, or who their friends are. It's also so easy to believe that if you don't have someone special in your life then you're not important. I fall into this trap daily. That's why it is so imperative that you learn to love yourself! There are some simple ways on how to do that.
1. Stop texting him
Tough and truthful love time, if he isn't replying, then he doesn't see the real beauty in you and that is his loss! You are perfect and wonderful in so many ways. He's the one missing out on someone willing to treat him right. You are walking away from someone who doesn't see your worth. He's not worth the heartache. So why would you keep wasting your time on him?
2. Ignore the others
There will be so many people in this world that will tear you down, that will hurt you, that will leave you hanging. You don't deserve that. You are not the opinion of someone who doesn't know the real you. Show them who you truly are and if they can't accept that then that is someone you don't want in your life.
3. Wear what you love
This week I created the "crop top challenge" and I wore a different crop top every time to try and boost my body image. I can say that I felt way more comfortable in my own skin, and I knew that even though my body isn't perfect, I still looked great! Don't let anyone tell you what does or doesn't look good on you. Not even the mirror. Trust me, you slay in anything!
4. Treat yo'self!
You earned that ice cream! You deserve those cookies! Your body is flawless and food is great! Need I say more?
5. Do something that scares you
If you aren't taking risks, nothing is truly exciting. Live your life as much as you can and try something new! Who cares what others think? Go back to number 3! Go out of your comfort zone and you may just find the perfect fit for yourself.
6. SHOP
Do I really need to elaborate?
7. Don't be afraid to ask for support when you need it
We all need a friend. Don't try to fight every tough situation on your own.
You are worth more than you could possibly imagine. Love yourself. You're not being conceited; you're being confident.
And don't forget to always dress yourself up with a smile!
