Fall in Love with Yourself
by It is easy and, at the same time, very difficult. Millions of people are searching for it every day. Many of them don’t find it at all, some of them know where to look but are too lazy to do it, and only a few find it. Happiness is a blessing that makes your life shine.
There are days of glory and joy, and there are days of sorrow and frustration. We all have those days at one or another stage. Sometimes we absolutely hate ourselves, or feel tired, stressed, angry, frustrated, lonely and upset. At such time nothing goes right and we desperately want to receive any help to get out of this state. However, the trick is that nobody can help us but us. Everyone else is outside and there is only one person who is inside and can say what is going on and how to make you happy. It is you. Nobody else knows the formula of your happiness.
Everything starts within you. Deep inside your mind. So, to create changes you have to truly fall in love with yourself. Ask yourself, “Do I truly love myself?” If yes, there are two things you have to do. First, ban all negative thoughts, like, “I am fat”, “I am old”, “I am sick”, “I don’t deserve good life”, “I don’t have money and I am poor” or “Nobody will ever love me!” (Remember, nobody will ever love you, if you do not love yourself.) Second, don’t do the things you hate, like working for a company or a person you don’t like, eating food you hate or having drinks you don’t want. Seek the ways to do the things you really enjoy.
If you really love yourself, re-organise your daily schedule, get rid of the old clothes that don’t fit you anymore and everything which sucks out your energy. Think of people with whom you get in touch every day, things you do, your job, your hobbies and your leisure time. Are all these making you feel better? Are you happy or bored, angry and frustrated?
You can make yourself a happy and healthy person by following ten simple rules. Remember, that you always have to:
- Respect your feelings and never be ashamed of them. You have the right to be sad, happy, frustrated, angry or bored. Don’t hide your feelings and your relationship with yourself and others will improve.
- Learn to make you happy with little things. Sun is shining bright through your window, your husband gave you a rose, your wife said she loved your, your flowers in the garden are fresh and lovely, or you ate a wonderful dinner. These little things can make you happy if you learn to pay attention to them.
- Plan your future, but be happy with your present. Don’t put aside the pleasure and leisure; don’t say that you don’t have time enough to do that.
- Break up your daily routine.Change the bit of your time-schedule. Make shorter working periods. Swap the places of the main tasks. Start your day with less important things and finish it with the more important ones or vice versa. Close your day with something more pleasant than a report to your boss.
- Don’t think only about someone else’s feelings. Once a day think of you! Once a week go shopping and buy yourself something very special. Or go to the restaurant and have dinner all alone.
- Don’t be too busy. People who want to do everything without any help can get stressed. Once a week try not to be the best worker, artist, secretary or a business owner. You will be surprised as you will do the same things automatically with the same quality, but you will feel happier.
- Don’t think negatively. Change the sentence, “I won’t be able to do it” to “I’ll think what can be done here”. Every morning read like a mantra, “I can do everything. I reach my aims easily. I am living my dream”.
- Even if you are too busy have small breaks; have a cup of tea, look into the mirror to apply some lipstick, brush your hair, do some stretches or punches to relieve tension and stress, leave the office for a couple of minutes or simply breathe to relax.
- Everyday have half hour exceptionally for your precious self. Your friends and family will have to learn to forget about you during that special time. During those thirty minutes you can do whatever you want. Watch TV, go for a walk, have a bubble bath, read a book, have a massage, or meditate. In a week or so you will feel refreshed.
- Be happy. Banish all bad and negative memories and thoughts from your head; think only of positive events, people and allow only positive ideas to enter your mind.
It’s easy. If you try it only for a couple of days you won’t see big differences. Be persistent and in a couple of weeks your life will become better forever. And in twenty one days you will turn into a happy smiling person. Try and see for yourself. However, don’t get upset if these steps don’t bring desirable changes fast, change the order in the list given above, add whatever you like or skip something you don’t. But never skip the rule number ten! Be always happy. It will improve your health and performance forever.
