Loving yourself isn't selfish, and perhaps, it is the best thing you can do for yourself. It is very important to give time for yourself and enjoy your own company. Your relationship with yourself is the most important and the longest relationship you will have till death. It is worth to spend time and effort to develop a more loving relationship with yourself. Below are the ways that may help you to develop loving yourself.
Stop comparing yourself to others
Never ever do that. Just try to become the best version of yourself. When you start comparing yourself to others you will start panicking for what you don't have. Rather, focus on yourself and your solo journey and also, know yourself better.
Say "No" when you need to
Create a healthy boundary between yourself, friends and family. Do not say yes to anything and everyone. When you know of your worth and self-respect, you better manage this boundary and say no when you need to. Saying no does not mean you don't like the thing or people, it means you know your limit and strength enough to protect yourself and save energy.
Give yourself a treat
In general, when you accomplish something good, you basically treat people around you. Try to remember, when was the last time you have treated yourself. Or have you ever treat yourself? If you can't remember, start from now you and celebrate yourself for any kind of achievement and be the first to treat yourself.
Be honest with yourself
Honesty is the best policy. Never lie to yourself. Honest relationship is the key in all relationship and if you fail to being honest to yourself, you will lose the connection within. No matter what happens, just be honest with yourself.
Don't let others opinion destroy your strength
Asking for opinion from others is good but never let them destroy your own strength. Don't worry much with others opinions and you can't make everyone happy. You know what you are doing and what are the relevant matters. It is a waste of time if you ask too many people for their opinions and get confused with your original one.
Entertain yourself
Most of us forget to entertain ourselves and instead we think more to make others happy and do things what we do not like and even spend money you don't need to. It is always worthless when you do not find yourself happy with the things you do and spend money on. Give the best priority to entertain yourself and make it often.
Trust yourself and make good decisions
Fully trust in yourself with anything that you are capable of. I know that everybody has a self-doubt when it comes with bigger responsibility. You know yourself better than anyone and only can work on your weaknesses. Be the best advocate of yourself.
Leave that toxic relationships
Never trust the people who tell you others secrets, and brutally criticize them. Which means they will do the same to others about you. Where there are clashes, no self-respects, negativities, conflicts within, and if you are in that relationship, my suggestion is just leave that relationship immediately. A toxic relationship will never make you happy and I don't see any lucrative things to continue that relationship. You better concentrate on self love and caring.
