Self-full, 2023
|
I put forth a message that encourages a large focus on the self because I know what it feels like to live with low self-esteem, and it does not feel good. It also does not help anyone around me when I feel shitty about myself. Self-esteem is defined as how we think and feel about our own worth, value, and abilities. Self-esteem is the key to other essential qualities and characteristics of being, such as:
self-love
self-efficacy
self-validation
self-recognition
self-care
self-advocacy
self-realization
self-actualization
self-worth
self-compassion
self-determination
That is why, to me, focusing on oneself is not inherently selfish as our society likes to believe. It is being self-fulfilling. It is being self-full. And to be a self-fulfilling individual is not mutually exclusive with being a compassionate, loving, giving person. It just means to live by a basic principle of having reciprocity in mind, and to know that how I feel about and treat myself has a huge impact on how I treat others.
until next time, with Love, the DLB
