You have high standards.
You want to excel.
You believe the pathway to excellence is to beat yourself up.
You believe that if you are critical of yourself … you’ll finally shape up and be better.
How’s it working for you?
Keep your high standards.
It’s awesome that you want to excel … we are made to continue to grow and stretch our abilities.
But, stop the self-beatings.
Stop the self-criticism.
What you are doing is dialing up the feeling of SHAME.
That feeling that means I am not ___________ENOUGH.
Shame is not the pathway to LOVE.
More shame does not equal more love.
In fact …more shame leads to more self-hatred.
But you want more LOVE, right?
Start with LOVE.
This means starting with yourself.
If you don’t love and value yourself … who will?
The only way to get more love is to share the love you have.
If you don’t love yourself you don’t have any love to share.
Loving yourself lets you love other people.
Loving other people let’s them love you back.
Love leads to more LOVE.
