TAKE THE CHALLENGE... FALL MADLY IN LOVE WITH YOU!
LOVING ME STARTERS...
So where the heck do we start? Of course, like most things in life that really matter, there is no simple answer... but there are some really bright guideposts to follow, ‘must haves’ for any woman who can honestly say “Yes, I am living and loving ALL of me.”
Be your own best friend. Love hanging out with you. When you are deeply connected to ME, there’s no reason to fear being alone. Honestly believe, “I would rather be companionless than with others who take away from how great I feel about ME, whether it’s family, friends or a man.”
See your magnificence and beauty. Embrace the amazing woman you are everyday. Share her with the world, and let everyone around you see her too. Cherish your own brilliance. Let it shine brightly, without reserve or fear of it being greater than someone else’s light. The more radiant you are, the more others will be inspired to show their own splendor.
Love all of you, even the shadows. Accept your flaws, idiosyncrasies and weaknesses. Love yourself for who you have been and are. Forgive yourself for decisions that were not self-supporting and nurturing. Acknowledge the dark parts of your life and spirit and love them.
Make decisions through the lens of self-love. Take actions and make choices only if they uphold your commitment to self. Always be honest about how a relationship or situation adds or detracts from loving ME.
Change your perspective on beliefs that counter self-love. Tell your gremlins to take a hike, throw the “shoulds” into the garbage, and leave the bags of guilt at the door. Be willing to believe in the possibility of new possibilities, ones that breed and nourish love.
Never apologize for who you are. Believe that your choices, made from integrity and love, never have to be justified to anyone other than your conscience. Be confident in who you are and never let anyone say you should be someone else.
Give and receive. One of the best parts of loving ME is getting to love WE, too. Love others freely, without attachment, expectation or resentment.
So exactly what does falling madly in love with yourself mean? Some say it’s selfish... others even narcissistic... maybe even ridiculous. But those of us who have actually learned to love the woman we are and then live a life that expresses her fully know without a doubt that everything in our lives -- careers, relationships, health, wealth, happiness -- all start with loving and living our truest self. When we love her fully and unconditionally, we can love others more, without losing ourselves. Imagine a world in which every woman and girl made her life choices from that place!
So how does a woman fall madly in love with herself? It’s a journey that we can take for the rest of our lives. When we say YES! to loving ME we begin a lifetime of discovering, celebrating and expressing our unique version. There is no one exactly like us... and as women and girls, we share a lot of the same stories. Click here and discover what your journey could be.
