I love my boys, my husband, my family and friends. All 3 of them. Ha. Many of them I love unconditionally. Without rules. With all my heart. With all my soul.
I also love myself. I annoy myself too- but I love myself more. It's hard to convince yourself that you are worth loving when really you loathe yourself. So, I replace the bad with the good. For example:
I replace friends. Recently I found one of my friends to be a real a-hole, always judging- cutting others down. I stopped spending time with them.
I speak slowly with an even tone- prey speaks in a high pitched and quick tone.
I repeat my successes. It's so easy to focus on the bad instead of the good, missed opportunities where I felt stupid. Before I fall asleep at night I think about all the good in my past day.
I look people in the eye- I don't get creepy and stare,but I do not cower when someone makes eye contact. Practice with strangers, then people you know.
I ask myself, "What's the worst that could happen?" I don't hold back.
