You were not born perfect, no one is. But you can do something to make your life so much better than what the average individual experiences. The people who are happiest with their lives are those who can learn to love themselves just the way they are.
Here are some suggestions on how to put yourself on that pedestal and laugh at negative energy.
pay yourself a compliment
Give yourself a compliment at least once a day. It could be something like, “I really liked the way you handled that situation” or “I love how my hair falls smoothly over my face today.” The compliment can be deep or superficial. Whatever it is, it should help keep your mood up, if only a little. Highlight the positive aspect of every situation you encounter. If you practice this often, you’ll be on your way to liking yourself a lot more.
renew yourself
Grab your closest friend and get fancy. Put on your best outfit of him, apply some makeup and do your hair (not necessarily by a professional), then grab a camera and take fun and funny photos of each other. Once you’ve printed the photos, throw out the ones that make him look drab and keep only the shots in which he looked his best. Whenever you feel down, you can go look at these photos to remind yourself that you are handsome and your life is fun.
Get physically fit
You don’t need to achieve a supermodel physique. Simple daily exercises to stimulate your bloodstream every morning will do the trick. You will feel better, your mood will be more positive, and you will be more pleasant with other people. If you give out positive energy, the more beautiful you become, and more people will be willing to give you positive vibes back, too.
Change your body image
If there’s something about your body that you don’t like, find out what makes you smile. Most likely, the reasons are very superficial and superficial. Realizing this will help you achieve a better image of yourself and teach you to appreciate yourself more.
treat yourself
Set aside time once a week to do something just for you. It can be anything from watching a cheesy movie to walking your dog in the park. As long as it’s time for you to do what you want to do.
wear nice underwear
This sounds silly, but it works! Wearing really cute panties makes you feel better and much more confident to take on others. Don’t you believe this? Try it!
Make a list of your good points
Without looking in the mirror, make a list of all the things you appreciate and like about your body, things like “I have great hair” or “I have nice teeth.” Keep this list in your wallet or where you can see it and whenever you feel down, just pull out this list and read it.
Travel
Ask some of your best friends to spend a day out of town with you. Pack a delicious snack and spend the day fishing or hiking, or whatever suits your interests. A day outdoors is sure to give you a boost of energy and make you feel good about yourself.
Stay away from people who put you down
You know these kinds of people. They just can’t stand the fact that you are fine with your life and will always try to bring your mood down. Avoid them at all costs, because they will never make you feel good about yourself.
do a good deed
Do something nice for someone else. You will find that things like volunteering at a homeless shelter or even something simple like helping someone who is lost by giving them proper instructions will make you feel good for the rest of the day. You will be doing something worthwhile and when you see how bad some people are, you will begin to appreciate your life more and be grateful for what you have.
