Only One You: You're Worth It

Do you love yourself? No, do you really love yourself? Does your actions show how much you love yourself? Does your appearance show how much you love yourself? Dictionary.com defines self-worth as noun: the sense of one's own value or worth as a person; self-esteem; self-respect.

Why do people not love themselves? See so many adults are hurt children trapped in adult bodies and they have either been trained to feel a certain way about themselves from the upbringing or influenced by someone who was important in your life at some point to think a certain way about themselves. Some adults were either emotional, verbally, physically or all of the above as children which leaves them with the value they have placed onto their own self at this very moment. Are you still holding on to that hurt child? Have you been trespassed as an adult and still holding onto that as well?

The main reason people do not make themselves or their own care as a priority is because of their low self worth. See these people do not view themselves as a gift from God and they are always seeking approval or too busy serving others at their own sacrifice. they do not feel like they deserve abundance, greatness, and love. The irony is that there is only one you. The temple you are given is what you get and if you do not take care of it, then you sacrifice your longevity and quality of your life.

We have to be 100% and value ourselves enough to see that people are not getting from us what they could if were were at 100%. You can run a car on fumes and neither can you run your body without proper fuel and maintenance. Assess how much you really value yourself and how much you love yourself. You derserve abundance and the same love that you pour into others. Fill your cup first, then share. What does making yourself a priority look like? It should include great nutrition and some form of exercise. Treat yourself to massages, schedule those chiropractor appts. for adjustments, take a yoga class, get a mani/pedi, schedule golf, etc. Just make time for yourself.

As an adult, we have the choice to train people how to value and treat us, but it starts with you. If you do not value your ownself, then do not expect others too. Lead by example, by setting boundaries and scheduling self-care. As long as you are not in love with you and grateful for who you are, you will never be in alignement or have the ability to stand in integrity. On the other hand, you will wrestle with yourself and not have peace and happiness until you find a way to love you first.
