be nicer to myself

Im trying to take this in one day at a time. Its hard since im use to putting others before myself. I feel like im always in self-destruct mode. I have never stopped to realize that im not as kind to myself as i am to others. Most times they dont even deserve it. Im trying to believe in myself and know that im better than the stuff i willingly put myself thru. I want to pickup an outdoor hobby like running or go to a few museums by myself. I want to treat myself to something nice with the money ive earned and feel accomplished and happy just being with Me. I wish that being kind to myself would make me feel happy 100 percent of the time. I guess it gets better with each day that goes by. I wont consider this done until i feel that i love myself for who i am and who i am not, and that no matter how much i want to be there for someone else; if i cant be there for myself first, i wont be.

Whenever the negative audio starts playing I ask myself, “Is this true?” I try and step back and look at the situation as if I am a third person. I ask again, “Are the negative voices in my head telling the truth?” Most of the time the answer is no. I remind myself that I don’t like others lying to me, so why should I get away with it? Then I rewrite the lie into a positive. It is working – I am being much nicer to myself!

I want to be nicer to myself by eating healthier, going for walks, treating myself to something nice when I’ve accomplished something, and not always putting everyone else ahead of me!! How can I take care of others if I don’t take care of myself first! =)

It is very true that you are your own worst enemy. Only you know how to really hurt yourself and exactly what buttons to press to set you off. I started actually believing all the little negative comments I made about myself. And my belief in them only reinforced their existence and made them that much more real. Little did I know at the time how I’d suffer for it. Well I know now and I’m ready to take out the trash and redo my whole thought process. Fuckin’ A!

I am generally nicer, more forgiving and more tolerant of other people than I am myself, whether or not they’ve earned it. This has got to stop!

I used to think I was the coolest person ever. As I grew up I found that I became harshly judgemental of myself… too this, not enough that….nothing I do ever seems to be enough for me. I want to get back to waking up and feeling capable, I want to feel awesome.

Just thought why am i getting tough on myself for….
Not getting up early
Smoking
etc..

insead of eating devitalized dead foods this morning for breakast, i had raw cabbage and strawberry yogurt.

Oh yes! I think I finally have progress to report! Since Tuesday I have been on the master cleanse aka the lemonade fast and I feel like I am being very very nice to myself!

i set this things to remind me to be nicer to myself daily. it helps. i went to the gym once a week for the past two weeks and i’ve been dancing along with painting, knitting, crocheting, and working on my comp. graph desigs. so i would say that i am being nice to myself. sadly, that has not meant that i have been in a good mood. but, i am thinking that good moods are about treating yourself well – what you take in, what you put out, and so forth. so i think there is still more to go.
