Whenever we criticize ourselves, we compound the issue.

By staying active & learning to control negative emotions and thoughts, you can live out the rest of your life on a good note.

Putting our expectations on others is a habit that keeps us feeling frustrated. It diminishes the amount of love we feel.

We're all unique and we all have our own talents. If you keep acknowledging your assets and accomplishments , and strive to be the best you can be, you'll let that 'not good enough' mentality go and be on your way to loving yourself, no matter what.

The process of setting a goal, learning the necessary steps to achieve it, and giving it your best until you've mastered it will generate high self-esteem and pride. Those are feelings associated with joy.

Giving appreciations, praise, and gratitudes feels good and puts good vibes in the environment.

When you feel victimized or sad, just allow yourself to cry; you'll feel better and have more room to experience joy.
