Self affirmation is something that we should all be doing, but which nevertheless we do not do. Believing in yourself could be an uphill task sometimes.
The world and its system will no doubt make it difficult. You will be knocked from all directions. And you will be defined by different people in different ways. But you must remember that the only definition that truly matters is the one you allow.
There will be people who will disagree with you, but I’m just you know what they say about opinions; “It’s like the behind, everyone’s got one”. They will say different things and may call you all sorts of names; arrogant, proud, pompous, self-serving, self-centred and all whatnots.
But, self affirmation and faith in your self will be the best gifts you can ever give to yourself.
Loving and celebrating yourself is a responsibility you might not want to leave only to others. Their charitable hearts might be too busy to see the things that you feel they should see. And, if care is not taken, you might go through life without anybody ever realising what a priceless treasure you are.
Therefore, take charge! Celebrate yourself! Shout it from the mountain top that you are all these things and more.
You will be doing yourself and the entire world a favour!! And, in case you’ve forgotten, when you love yourself, it’ll be easier for others to love you too.
I challenge you, come on! Let’s do this!!
Self affirmation!
The following are words that I use to define myself. And this is who I am.
