self-discovery journey

People need to KNOW themselves to LOVE themselves.

October 15, 20241 min read

Yes, it's true! A lot of us don't really know much about ourselves. It can be because we've never had a chance to really discover what our strengths, weaknesses, likes and dislikes are.

Or we've changed so much over the years while we've been looking after everybody else and putting ourselves "on hold" that we have no idea what we are like anymore. It happens a lot. The good news, any day is a good day to start the rewarding self discovery journey.

Self-love is not the same as selfishness or arrogance. Self-love is knowing your talents and flaws, self-love is looking after yourself. Any little step in that direction is good.

Instead of being "self-less", it's much better for all of us to be "self-full". Not selfish or egocentric but being supportive of ourselves and caring for ourselves.

If you feel like having a bit of fun, write down 5 things you enjoy (or used to enjoy) doing, your current or old hobbies, things that make you happy.

Celebrate your taste and style. Enjoy your "You" time.

"People need to KNOW themselves to LOVE themselves, and they need to love themselves to love others."

Keep shining and keep smiling

Have a super powerful day
