If you don’t love yourself, who will?

Self-love is an essential element for living a positively present life, and self-respect is a vital aspect of self-love. The more you respect yourself, the more you are able to love yourself.

You have to learn to love yourself first, instead of loving the idea of other people loving you. Because the greatest struggle in life is the struggle to accept, embrace and love ourselves, with all of our imperfections.

We have to learn to be our own best friends, because sometimes we fall too easily into the trap of being our own worst enemies. We love the idea of others loving us, and we forget to love ourselves.

To be 100% honest about who we are, how we feel and what we need. To stop discrediting ourselves for everything we aren’t, and start giving ourselves credit for everything we are. And to be aware that not everyone we love will agree with us every step of the way, and to be OK with it. In 2017, you may have let all these happen but it is time to put an end to it. Let 2018 be the year of SELF LOVE.

To help you along the way, here are 8 things you must do to get the ball rolling

The bottom line is: People will come and go. Events will come and go. Days will turn into weeks and into months but a true love for yourself will always remain with you, if you nurture it.
