With social media, magazines, and television shows nowadays, it's easy for a young adult to fall into the trap of self-loathing and jealously. "Why don't I look like them?" "They're so pretty." "They have all things I want." "I wish I could be them for a day." These questions have definitely ran through everyone's mind while looking at all the Snapchats and Instagram posts of someone they know (or don't, i.e: Kylie Jenner). While placing negative thoughts into your mind, it creates negative energy and a bad vibe all around. When this happens, many get into a funk, but it all changes when you learn to love yourself.
1) Your Mood
Your mood changes IMMENSELY when you have self-love. You're happier. More intune with what's going on around you. You smile, a lot (it's awesome). Feeling genuinely happy and ready for what the world has to offer each day is what happens regularly.
2) Your Outlook
Your outlook on life becomes so much more positive. When negative things happen, you take it how it is. You don't freak out as much when something unlucky happens to you. That's life, sometimes bad things happen, that's why life's beautiful. You never know what's going to happen next!
3) Your "Vibe"
You will attract more positive friendships and relationships when you love yourself because you know what you are worth! Toxic relationships will be a thing of the the past. (YAAAS!!!!) When you love yourself, you don't settle, you look for people who love you and respect you as much as you love and respect yourself!
Loving myself has been the greatest thing I have ever done. It wasn't easy, but once I got there I fell in love with who I am. I used to lay in bed and not talk to anyone for hours. I would wake up in the middle of the night and be wide awake thinking about something I did eight years ago and how I hated myself for doing it... eight years ago. Now I lay in bed and actually use it for its purpose - to take glorious naps! Once you love yourself for who you are everything changes. Your outlook on life, your mood, your presence, everything. People will notice. You will feel so amazing, like you should! You were given this life to do great things. Not everyone is the same, but everyone has a purpose.
