“Self-love, self-respect, self-worth: There’s a reason they all start with ‘self.’ You can’t find them in anyone else.” Many of us (myself included) tend to beat ourselves down when we need our love the most. When we fail or screw up or someone rejects us, that’s the time we often get even more down on ourselves. Today, instead of beating yourself up for whatever you think you did "wrong" or if things don't go as you planned, choose to be loving and forgiving with yourself . When you stumble and fall. When you say the wrong things. When someone rejects you or a project fails. Ask yourself what you need and then spray that all over yourself. Today, choose to love and accept yourself no matter what.

Just for today, I choose to love and accept myself exactly as I am right now. I know that loving myself and others allows me to be all that I can be. Divine peace and harmony surround me and dwell within me. I feel tolerance, compassion and love for all people, including myself. I am safe. It is only change and all is truly well in my world. And so it is.
