3 Ways to be Kinder to Yourself

Most of us demand too much of ourselves. We look at we've done wrong before we look at what we've done right. If you identify with this, here are some ways to think more positively about yourself.

Treat yourself as if you were your best friend. You wouldn't constantly tell your best friend that you weren't doing enough. You'd praise her for what she does right. Well, do that for yourself. Acknowledge yourself throughout the day for what you do, do.

Eliminate can't from your vocabulary and substitute the word, won't. You are stronger than you think and more powerful.  When you don't do something it is because you choose not to. Remember that the next time you say NO to something.

Acknowledge the kind people who come into your life daily. Choose to see the good in the people you surround yourself with. When you see the good rather than the bad, you just feel better and are more positive.
