Accepting Yourself Completely

Piggy-backing onto last week’s blog post theme of self-acceptance and appreciating yourself for all of your positive qualities along with your imperfections, I found an article that really resonated with this topic. It seems to be a general consensus that the first step to success and happiness is self-love/acceptance. But why do we think this is? Personally, I […]

Self-Acceptance & Inner-Strength

  I’m inclined to believe that everyone, at one point or another, has been ashamed of something in their life. Whether it was something that was done to you, or something you did, or just an unattributed experience… there has been a glimmer of shame in all of our pasts. But, one of the best ways […]

Let Your Passions Be Yours !

  Have you ever noticed how easy it is to be hard on yourself? Even that sentence itself sounds like an oxymoron, right? Maybe it sounds like one, because in a perfect world, it would be. But, as we all know, life isn’t always perfect; and neither are we. But the most important thing to […]

Making Yourself Your Number One Priority

  I’m sure that each and every one of us has insecurities; we are typically our own toughest critics, after all.   But when a “flaw” you see in yourself becomes an obsession, that’s when we may want to take a step back and really analyze what’s going on. Why does that thing about who […]
