The past couple of days I’ve been talking about self-acceptance. ⠀
⠀
It is a very important topic that I think every single person on Earth🌎 can relate to. ⠀
⠀
This being said I’d like to share with you guys a few methods I have for practicing self-acceptance.⠀
⠀
🔸Accept Imperfection and Celebrate Your Strengths⠀
⠀
I had to learn to accept my flaws and imperfections. I learned to accept that it’s normal and not the end of the world to not be good at something. ⠀
⠀
Instead of always focusing and pointing out my weaknesses I started celebrating all the things I was good at. ⠀
⠀
And instead of trying to be good at something I’m not I started focusing on being even better at what I already know I’m good at.⠀
⠀
🔸Compassion, Kindness and Forgiveness for yourself⠀
⠀
Instead of always saying negative shit to myself and putting myself down constantly I started repeating positive affirmations and nice things to myself.⠀
⠀
And when I’d mess something up I would try to not be so hard on myself. I was and sometimes still am my worst critic. ⠀
⠀
I also had to learn to be forgiving towards myself for all of my past and present mistakes. ⠀
⠀
🔸Create a Support System⠀
⠀
The people you choose to surround yourself with are so important. ⠀
⠀
It’s important to surround yourself with supporting, loving people. People that will support and motivate you to be your best. Not people that will try and bring you down. ⠀
⠀
It’s also important to have people in your life you can confide in. Be honest and open with them about what’s going on with you. ⠀
⠀
These are just a few simple ways to start practicing self-acceptance. In a world where hatred is so prevalent it’s important to be able to show love to at least yourself. ⠀
⠀
What is one technique that you use to practice self-acceptance?
