Let us Love Ourselves

Do you also regret your words after a conversation? We spend most of our time reacting to events and things happening in our environment. The problem is that these reactions aren't always the best course of action; as a result, they can upset others, make things worse for us, and even worsen the situation. Sometimes we don't even intend to hurt others, but because we unknowingly react to the words of others, we may end up hurting our loved ones.  This is why it is widely said by doctors and motivational and spiritual leaders to respond instead of reacting. Before we move on to the practical advantages of responding, we must first know the difference between the two. Once we are aware of the pros and cons of reacting, we will automatically implement responding in our behavior. Reacting refers to an instant response to an event or circumstances. For example, you hit me, so I'll hit you. You cheated, so I'll cheat as well. You irritated me. I will irritate you more. A reac...

  If you have read my ebook  "It All Starts With You" , you already know what topic I am going to write about here. In that e-book, I have already shared the importance of self-care and why putting yourself over others is not selfish. I don't know what inspired me, but in this blog post, I again want to talk about the same. Perhaps because self-care is still undervalued today. Part of the cultural society, especially when it comes to women are believed to be a superwoman. They are considered to work and do stuff for others and never get tired. In fact, men too are thought to be emotionless and robust because they are never seen expressing their concerns like women and being vulnerable. Therefore, self-care and putting yourself before others are essential for everyone irrespective of gender.  The real issue arises when we consider elevating ourselves above others. When we love our family, spouse, friends, and children, we tend to consider their needs above ours and how we ...

Do you know our brains give more weight to negative responses than positive ones? For instance, when you ask someone to not do something, or not go there, their mind will urge them to do the same. This is because the word "not" comes in the category of negative words. Generally, we all get contemplated by seeing or hearing the negative news that goes on and on around us which sometimes takes a toll on our mental health.  Some days we feel sad without even knowing the exact reason and, then we wonder why we are feeling this way.

With the daily turmoil we face, whether it is at work or in our family, it becomes hard to live a fulfilling and peaceful life. Our hearts desire to have someone who constantly motivates us and boosts our self-esteem. While it's wonderful to have someone in your life who lifts your spirits, you must also recognize that you cannot rely on them every time you feel down.

This is why I decided to share with you all 10 positive reminders that will help you get through any day, no matter how difficult it is.
