Love yourself first.
Believe in yourself.
Positive thinking.
There is power in all of the above.
Could be some of the secrets to happiness?
I'll admit that those times in my life when I felt negatively about myself were times of depression and unhappiness. We can't blame ourselves for all that happens in our lives. Learning how to move on quickly is so important. You can get stuck in the rut of depression which is not good at all. That is where I have been.
It can't be confused with feeling sorry for yourself.
