4 Reasons Why You're Worthy Of Your Own Love

We have always been told that high self-esteem will lead to a fulfilling life. If you are truly happy with yourself then no one else can change that.

But too many people confuse self-worth and self-esteem, and that’s a problem. Of course its a good thing to think and feel good about ourselves. But what happens the moment we don’t?

Just because you don’t feel good about yourself doesn’t mean you aren’t valuable. But so many people believe that’s how it works!

Instead of trying so hard to “feel good” about ourselves, isn’t it better to already know our “self” is good?

That’s the key difference between self-esteem and self-worth. Self-worth is already knowing that you are valuable, regardless of how you feel about yourself that day.

Sometimes it can be a struggle balancing your life between confidence and completely accepting yourself, and that’s OK! It takes people so many years to finally find their sense of self-worth.

But I’m here to help you get a head start on that.

Here are 4 simple reasons why you are worthy and valuable…

1. Because your past doesn’t matter.

It's done and over with! There is no point in staying in the past; pick up your thoughts and run forward.

2. Because the Universe created you.

You cannot be anything other than worthy. Realize that the Universe brings things and does things for a bigger purpose. It's no accident you're the way you are, you are perfect!

3. Because if you remove judgment from your heart and mind you’ll realize what you’re worth.

All the small things in the back of you’re mind telling you otherwise are just that, little and unimportant. The answer is simple: If you get rid of your inner judgement now, you’ll find your true, biggest worth.

4. Because you said so.

Do you know your mind doesn't know the difference between a lie and the truth? Tell yourself that you are worthy enough times. Sooner or later its bound to catch up with you.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
