We're all guilty of putting ourselves down, me included. It's something we're conditioned to do.. by society, the media, our friends and family etc. Being an empowered, strong and self assured person is seen as narcissistic, egotistical, and big headed..but it's not. Its vital to love yourself - it changes your life for the better. TENFOLD! Learning to really and truly love yourself is hard, it takes a lot of work and dedication, especially if you're like me and you have suffered all your life with a really low opinion of yourself. I wasted so many years hating who I was, from stupid things like my feet, my nose, my voice, even my personality. I tried to change and manipulate who I was, to be more like other's who I saw on Instagram, the internet, even people I knew. When really I should of been looking after me, and loving who I was, every 'flaw' and every part of me. Trust me, when you embark on a journey of self love, your life will change. You'll wake up with a new perspective, energy and drive. Relationships with people will improve, work, social life etc. You will stop caring what people think of you and you'll be achieving your full potential. It is hard, and trust me i'm not 100% there but I have changed my mindset over the 6-8 months to such an extent that I see myself and the world differently. I'm still on this journey and it'll be some time before I am totally in love with who I am, but embark on this journey with me and see how your life changes!!!!!!!
