Learn to pick yourself up

You are beautiful inside and out. You are intelligent, strong, independent, and everything you ever wanted to be. And you are still all these things even when no one tells you that you are. So tell yourself.

The only approval you will ever need in life is your own. No one else’s opinion of you matters, as long as you are happy with yourself. Do whatever makes you happy and don’t waste your precious energy worrying what others think of you. You don’t need anyone besides yourself to pick yourself up. You don’t need to depend on anyone, because you do not need anyone. You can want someone, but you do not need them, that is the difference.

Remind yourself that you are all these amazing traits and qualities you aspire to be. The most liberating feeling is the happiness that comes from being confident and happy within. So learn to pick yourself up when you’re feeling down. Learn to only ever need yourself, to only depend on yourself. Become your own best friend and never stop proving to yourself how vulnerable you are. If you can’t admit your deepest needs and desires to even yourself, you’ll always live in disconnect and denial. Everything is temporary, the only thing constant in life is you.

Look at yourself in the mirror and be grateful of your beautiful body for supporting you and loving you unconditionally every day. Make your mind and body one by listening to them. Create whatever change you need in order to help yourself grow forward. You are the only one that can heal you. You are the only one that knows yourself best. If you can’t help you, no one else will be able to. So trust yourself, listen to your intuition. You have to live with yourself for the rest of your life, no one else!

Connect with yourself that way you can connect to everything else around you.
