If you are kind to others, help someone at times of need, never hurt others intentionally, stand for the right cause, this makes you a good person. I believe these few reasons are enough for loving yourself. Once u start believing in yourself and start ignoring all the things you hate yourself for, you will find more things to love yourself for. It’s something like the saying, once you stop focusing on the bad things only good things persist. Your flaws and mistakes are what make you YOU. They’re stars that make up the constellation of your life. Without them how will you be yourself? If it seems difficult let’s take one step at a time. Even if you one reason to love yourself for, it’s okay. Keep going and one day you will have countless. When we try out something new, thoughts like ‘Will I be able to do it?’ What if people hate on me for speaking out? What if I make a mistake? I know that things don’t always go the way we want them to or imagined them to, but it’s not necessary for it to always end up being bad. True love begins with loving myself. Don’t try to fit yourself in the mould that others have created for you. I’m not saying that everyone will love you for who you are. There will be people who keep criticizing you for everything you do. There will be people who won’t smile back at you and there will be people who will try their level best to put u down. But all this shouldn’t concern you. We don’t need everyone to like us. We need just a few people who will always stay by our side no matter what, who console us when we are low and who will always be there to support us in our ventures. When someone says u can’t do this and try to deflate our confidence, isn’t it more exciting and fun when u actually do succeed? It’s a slap in their face. So , it’s okay if someone criticizes you. It’s okay if they are rude. Let’s turn the gate they throw at you to love for ourselves. The world is a jealous kind. People hate on you when u have something they don’t. So if they’re giving u hate for it, let’s love ourselves for it.
