Why Are You So Against Yourself?

Do you know what is worse than bullies? Being your own bully.
Torturing yourself with negative thoughts and words addressed to your own person, life, activity, failures, insulting yourself, never trusting yourself.

All this needs to stop!
You are not ugly!
You are not stupid!
You are not good for nothing!
You are not unworthy!

You are simply a flawed human being that has the right to be imperfect, has the right to make mistakes and to learn from those, has the right to try until they succeed, even if this happens after several failures.

You are under no obligation to make sense to others, you have to learn that you cannot please everybody, you cannot meet everyone's expectations, you cannot live your life putting yourself second all the time. No matter what you do and how hard you try, there will always be someone who doesn't like what you did. And most likely you might not get everything you wished and worked for.

And that's absolutely ok!

That doesn't mean you have to hate yourself and treat yourself as if you don't deserve anything. You are alive and still have the power to change things to the better, but that will only happen if you rise again, put yourself together, smile, stay positive, treat yourself right and win that war!
A couple of lost battles don't mean anything. as long as you learn how to appreciate your own efforts and love yourself more!
