I have an impeccable word when it comes to my friends and family. I've been thinking this morning do I have an impeccable word with myself. I don't! I say I'm going to do something for me and I never follow through. Do I not deserve my impeccable word? I DO! So why don't I follow through? I don't know. This is something i'm going to have to work on during 2012.
It's time to be true to myself just as much as I am to my friends and family. Maybe this is what they mean about always putting others first and not yourself. I told myself for every holiday movie I watch I will do 10 mind of exercise while watching. I've done that once. I tell myself I'm going to lose this weight, but I don't. I say I'm going to keep a clean house then I slack. I don't keep my promises to myself. Now how to learn to do this. I deserve it!
How to do this? First I need to sit down and write down what I want and then think about how i'm going to get there. I know there will be times that life will vary and I will have to be flexible in getting to my goals. I can do this!
It starts with believing, I mean REALLY believing that you are worth it. Loving yourself - that's where it starts. It's a journey. Don't beat yourself up for perceived failures - that's not loving yourself either. Treat yourself like you are your friend.
