In fact, self-love consists of two essential elements that must be balanced if one wishes to live a harmonious life.
The first element encourages unconditional love towards yourself.
The second element encourages growth, and the focus is on taking action.
When it comes to self-love, think about what it means to love others unconditionally.
Self-love is the balance between accepting yourself as you are while knowing you deserve better, and then working towards it.
So, the Law of Attraction stresses the importance of thinking about what you want, rather than focusing on things you fear or dread.
Often, I’ve not got what I wanted, only to find I’ve later been blessed with even more.
This is why when you truly believe in something and act as if it were already true, you increase the chances of it coming to you in your physical reality.
This means that our thoughts, emotions, words and actions must align with what we want.
This means the feelings we put out into the Universe will be returned to us through matching vibrations.
Be around people who are feeling better than you are.
So, if we can begin to experience more positive emotions on a regular basis as a result of other people, we’ll attract even more positive people into our life, thus reinforcing the good vibes around us.
When you begin to doubt your abilities, you can quickly fall deep into a sea of misery. You begin to experience all the lower vibrational states and this can be damaging.
When you’re upset because someone doesn’t like you, it’s your ego operating: you validate your existence based on their approval. When they disapprove of you, you no longer feel good about who you are.
It’s the reason we become bitter about other people’s successes. It’s the reason greed exists and why we’re constantly striving to outdo others.
However, I’ve also learned not to waste time on people who have no interest in what I have to say, or why I say it.
Remember, there might be many things in your world that are going wrong. Yet there are also many things that are going right.
The Universe is abundant in all areas; the illusion of fear is the only limitation we have.
She was reminded that her joy wasn’t dependent on how others interacted with her.
meditation is really concentration.
when you breathe with awareness, you’re meditating.
We give everything to someone who just won’t match our efforts and willingness to try.
Instead, the right partner will extend you.
Unfortunately, many modern friendships aren’t based on emotional support or a family-like connection.
If they’re supposed to be in your life, sooner or later they’ll be there; your journeys will align again eventually.
When they find out that they’re actually hurting you, they may very well change their ways.
Whether they’re friends, family or lovers, don’t be afraid to let go of relationships that no longer serve a purpose in your life.
What people say about you says more about them than about you
Never allow society’s ideals for physical beauty to devalue your existence.
You can attract many people with your looks, but you can only hold on to a great person with what you have on the inside.
We remember everything that we’ve done wrong, but hardly ever think about the things we’ve done right.
Forgive yourself for the bad decisions you’ve made, or the times you lacked belief, for the times you hurt others and yourself. Forgive yourself for all the mistakes you’ve made. What matters most is that you’re willing to move forward with a better mindset.
Remember that nothing stays the same, including you, and think back to all of your achievements and accomplishments.
You can’t move forward with thoughts that hold you back.
This is the practice of living consciously: unlearning and reconditioning the mind so you can have more freedom to be who you really are.
The brain and the nervous system can’t tell the difference between what’s imagined and what’s real.
The Universe is always supporting you, but you must be willing to do your part in the manifestation process.
Lack of time isn’t an excuse. If you can’t make the time for something, it’s not a high enough priority for you. If something is important to you, you’ll make the time for it.
But form a healthy balance between work and play while moderating where you’re placing your time and energy.
We use our precious energy to imagine what could go wrong, instead of having faith in what could go right.
Just because you can’t see the point behind a challenging time doesn’t mean there isn’t one.
You wouldn’t be on this planet, at this time, if you didn’t have something to offer.
Happiness doesn’t come from other people, from places or things. It comes from within.
Even your ideal partner has no control over your lasting happiness. They can only affect your relative happiness, which can vanish in seconds if external conditions change – if your partner acts in a way that you perceive as hurtful, for example.
If you commit your whole heart to achieving something and it doesn’t work out, you can take that as a promise from the Universe that it wasn’t the right thing for you. Something better is coming. Keep going.
