with practice one decision at a time I am doing it. I can also say at
this point that it is not easy but it is getting easier everyday. I had to learn to love myself because I existed not because of what I
do or how I behave. I began to allow myself to be who I was not what
others expected me to be. In short I began to show warmth, caring and
concern for myself. It is always easier to overlook others faults and
forgive them for not living up to my expectations but it was harder
with myself as I am my own worst critic.
Now I am still working on these issues daily many of expectations I
have for myself are not rational. They are filled with perfectionism
and I will love myself when. But I am learning to love myself for just
who I am. This has cause a real change for me in my self esteem and
self worth. Because I love and approve of myself I now am able to take
full responsibility for all my actions. I can now accept rewards of
being me and consquences. This feels really good. Loving yourself
unconditionally frees you to unconditionally love everyone else in
your life.
