Being You





DISCOVER YOURSELF
Sit and jot down your values, ambitions and goals. Think about where you are in your life and where you want to be. It might sound like a silly exercise but it really works. This will basically put into perspective who you are and what you want out of life. It will help you to discover your worth, and once you know your worth, you will not settle for anything less.

SPEND TIME WITH YOURSELF
Now this is a scary one (yes, even for me!). The minute we find ourself sitting alone at home on a Friday night, our first reflex question to ask is 'Is something wrong with me?' But my dear beauts, it is perfectly okay to spend some QT with yourself. Watch a movie, dance around in your room to some good music, sing to yourself, be comfortable with being you. . Be  Like they say, you need to be able to enjoy your own company before you can enjoy anyone else's.

KNOW YOUR WEAKNESS
From personal experience I can honestly say that this is a critical step. If you;re dealing with something, whether be it personal or with someone else, allow yourself time to be weak. It's okay to cry, it's okay scream, it's okay to sleep until you feel strong enough to get up, and YES, it is absolutely okay to indulge in an entire slab of chocolate(PHEW!) Without your weakness, you would not know your strengths.

EXTENUATE YOUR STRENGTHS
Now everyone has their strengths and weakness but focus on your strengths. I believe that for every weakness there is a strength, for example; I am an 'overly' emotional person, I let the things that people say and don't say get me down - but in correlation to that, without the help of anyone (except God), I have the strength to pick myself up when I'm weak or hurting. What is a strength that you can use to make up for your weakness?

God wants you to be confident in who you are, after all, you were made in his image:):)
