How to Breakup with Yourself
Do you love yourself - I mean really love yourself? Like giddy, googly, ‘you hang up first. No YOU hang up first’ kind of in love?
Sadly, many people don’t.
The relationship we have with ourselves is the most important relationship we’ll ever have. What we say and think about ourselves creates the relationship with have with ourselves. We either love it or hate it. We tend to like ourselves more when something good is going on in our lives- success in our business, relationships, or our health and physique. We hate ourselves when we’re met with failure or hardship.
But even when we’ve experienced success, we still allow negative thoughts to creep in.
Have you ever heard that voice that says things like:
“You’re not worthy or deserving of ____ (that good thing).”
“You don’t have the experience or education to start a business or go after that job/client/opportunity. You don’t even know what you’re doing.”
“Look at all of the mistakes you’ve made in the past- all of those bad choices. You don’t deserve success/love/prosperity, etc. If only you hadn’t screwed up.”
“You’ll never figure it out. You might as well give up now.”
