How to love myself by putting things into perspective
Relationships make us grow! Relationships challenge us and they show up so we can see the things that we need to work on. When we seek validation from another person to love us in order to feel complete, we become unfulfilled and our “baggage” surges up. Things we haven’t worked on come up in these relationships, and they can either become toxic or we can end up experiencing the death of attraction, which in turn pushes your partner away.
The most challenging thing in the process of loving yourself again and figuring out how to become happier is patience. It’s not something that can heal overnight. It takes time and it takes effort. If you put yourself in the state of mind to never give up, then you will be rewarded at the end. Sometimes it can take months or even years, but don’t let that discourage you. The most satisfying and fulfilling elements of life require investment.
Speaking for myself, it was an ongoing challenge and it took me years before I realized that I needed to focus on me. Life is about constant work and you master it by never giving up.
Time is our best friend but also feels like our worst enemy sometimes. Though it requires patience, as time goes on, you can heal your heart and you can find ways to love yourself. You need to invest the time in order to be the best person that you can be. You have to invest time in everything in life and people tend to forget that they have to invest in themselves. Take the time to invest in you! When we come into this world we have no fear, and we have no self-doubt. Fear and self-doubt are both learned behaviors. It’s about taking action now to unlearn the behavior.
Think about it this way: You’ve had to personally invest in everything important in your life. Whether it is time, finances, thought etc, it has required investment so that you could make the best possible thing in the best possible way. For example, maybe you’re an entrepreneur and you had to invest time in your business to get to where you wanted it to be, and as a result, it became impactful and produced revenue. When you were a child learning how to ride a bike, you had to invest time in order to be able to ride that bike.
So now you have to invest time in yourself in order to truly love who you are.
How do I love myself: 6 Expert Tips
Tip #1: Being patient and okay with time. Not trying to rush the process towards your own personal growth.
Tip #2: Be compassionate with yourself and don’t give energy to negative self-doubting thoughts of putting yourself down. Now, it’s not something that you can control instantaneously and say, “No more negative thoughts” and then just expect them to disappear. No, it takes practice. You get so used to concentrating on your ego’s remarks, and your ego may respond saying you’re not good enough, you’re never going to be loved, or you’re not attractive enough. That’s a few out of many examples.
We start to focus on what was created. This becomes a subconscious habit and we think that we just have to get used to these thoughts when it comes to loving oneself. Then these thoughts play into our mind and we start to believe them. This leads me to tip #3.
Tip #3: You have to be more present in the moment when you’re trying to love yourself again, and being more present comes with a whole realm of things. You have to be present in order to catch yourself in moments like the ones I touched on in tip #2. Be present in the thoughts that are coming through. You’re not going to capture and stomp out every single thought, and that’s okay, but start being present with your thoughts and controlling those thoughts to have a more positive outlook. Tell yourself you are worthy, you are lovable, you are loved, and do the things that make you happy. Start to realign your thoughts.

Tip #4: Read some self-development books, watch videos, and invest time in things that will help guide you and stay motivated. Think about what you are dissatisfied with in regards to your life right now. What are you trying to love about yourself again? Do you feel like you’re never going to be loved again because of a specific issue? Maybe you cheated, maybe something happened in your life? Understand that when you truly love yourself, you will find someone that will love you for you no matter where you are in life. Love is intentional and energy attracts energy. You have to love yourself so others can follow. This is what is attractive to women and people in general! Stay focused on self-development.
Tip #5: What is it that you want? Hire a coach, hire a psychiatrist, invest in some good books, invest in some good courses to help you with your goals. Find a community so you can find support, new surroundings, and new people to be around. Hiring someone is always a great way to hold yourself accountable and they can listen with an outside perspective and give you sound advice with a professional opinion. A professional will be able to provide you with tools that you don’t even know existed! So expand your horizons, and really take the time and invest in yourself to do so.
Tip #6: Do something that you’ve always wanted to do. This can lift your spirits so much. So if you’ve been dying to go hiking and you’ve never done it, if you wanted to book a trip to New York and you’ve never been, or if you always wanted to pick up the phone and talk to one of your childhood friends again, do it now! Now is your time because time is our best friend, but remember that time is not forever. Living a life that you truly want for yourself will be so valuable. Envision the life that you want right now.
How do I love myself as time goes on..
Lastly, after reading this blog, I want you to envision the life that you want. Write it down, or just envision it and stay with that vision for at least two to three minutes. Do that every day.
Visualization is so impactful when it comes to your energy and when it comes to manifestation. You can create the ideal life that you want, but it doesn’t come to you without you putting in the work. Once you hold yourself accountable and understand that some days will be harder than others, you will have fewer hard days and easier days as long as you stay committed to the work. I have seen the lives of several clients transform as a result of these exercises. I know what it takes to make lasting changes so I challenge you to wake up every day and do what we discussed in this article!

Hi Steve,
Thanks for your comment and I know this time is extremely difficult. The best thing to do is to really work on your self-happiness. You have it in you. It’s not about anyone else but you at this moment. You have a lot to offer the world and it’s about you taking the time to heal yourself and find that happiness that is wanting to come out. 🙂

Thank you for your help, Apollonia. Thank you for being grateful to me. I will really work on your guidance and help.
Hi, how can are private counselor
For me, the challenge to loving myself is, how the fashion industry have placed such huge emphasis on the “perfect smile.” I wear partial dentures, and my remaining teeth have gaped in some places (because I can’t afford implants, and the last time I had a cavity, the dentist quoted me a price of $2, 500 dollars for just 1 tooth). So I’ve had some (about 1/2) of my teeth extracted. I am totally self-conscious about it. Dates look at your mouth. 1) I’m 65 years old, and what I have functions (for me). 2) I’m only interested in women close to my own age. 3) Still, I don’t approach women for this reason…
