Love yourself

As the song goes : "The greatest love of all is learning to love yourself" and that's true with the article written by Aymee Coget and featured at Yahoo Health.

According to Aymee, At some point in our lives, we have to come to the decision to love ourselves, for our personal benefit and for the benefit of those who love us. A lack of self-love will ultimately turn an optimistic relationship into an unhappy one because neither person will be able to express unconditional love.

I totally agree with her coz we can't really love someone unconditionally without loving ourselves unconditionally first. And here are some basic tips given by Aymee towards self-love:

1. ACKNOWLEDGE that you have to love yourself unconditionally before you can love anyone else.

2. ACCEPT that your self-love can only come from you.

3. TURN YOUR ARROWS AROUND & POINT TO YOURSELF. You have to stop looking to others for love.

4. START NURTURING YOURSELF like you were a baby. Treat yourself to a solo dinner, go to the spa by yourself, tell yourself that you are beautiful.

5. DISCOVER ALL THE THINGS THERE ARE TO LOVE ABOUT YOU. Take the strengths survey at www.authentichappiness.com to see what your strengths are, and build your life around them.
