Self-Love First
Deep down, do you believe any of the following?
“It’s important to give to others first.”
“My needs don’t matter.”
“Selflessness is a virtue.”
“What makes me worthy is giving to others.”
These types of beliefs are signs you are denying yourself self-acceptance and self-love.
If you do that, no one wins, including the people you want to give to!
Make a commitment to start to truly love yourself.
This is foundational for a flourishing life and career.
P.S. If part of you thinks this is self-help BS, then I invite you to love that part of you as well. ; )
