Sometimes I get super ahead of myself, and I try to tell people what to do or how to live their life in order to be happy. (Not that I'd know, I'm not always happy or content.)But I don't understand what they go through, I can't fully identify, and what they need is different from what I need. But I still want to help, and I want to give people keys to make their life a bit better.
Well here's the first key: Start with the basics.
Not Starbucks-drinking, hoodie and legging-wearing, topknot-twisting basics. Like, beginning principles basics.
The most important thing you can do is to love yourself. Begin there. Find the life-altering truth that you are worthwhile, you matter, your existence is a plus. Then move onto things like understanding that you are beautiful, intelligent, talented, and capable. Find the good in yourself. Love yourself. From there, you can find confidence, empathy, forgiveness, hope, clarity, and compassion. As you discover your own worth, you become even more worthy, and the cycle never ends. Infinite goodness is in you, just awaiting discovery. The world itself blossoms for those who have confidence in themselves.
Actually, that's pretty much the basic. From loving yourself, everything else can grow. Love yourself. See the goodness in yourself that you've been blinded to. It may surprise you how you shine.
