Here's 3 Ways to Instantly Feel Better About Yourself Today
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

-------------------------------------------- 
1. Forgive yourself! 
-------------------------------------------- 

You can't change the past; you can only change how you 
respond in the present moment: 

What you think of NOW, how you feel NOW and how you 
act NOW. 

Refusal to forgive yourself for something you can't change - 
keeps you 'paralyzed' from ever moving forward into a better 
future. 

Worse still! It will consume you. 

You MUST stop beating yourself up. It's time to "let go of 
it" and move on.

Forgiving yourself doesn't mean "forgetting" the past. 

It means that, despite whatever you've done in the past, you 
are a good person who deserves to be happy.

-------------------------------------------- 
2. Praise yourself! 
--------------------------------------------

Distinct from both a reward and a treat... praise comes from 
within. 

Identify your good qualities - what you like about yourself, 
your positive traits. 

Recognize your strengths, your talents and abilities. 

Honor your accomplishments. 

Compliment yourself - and likewise, accept the compliments 
of others (this is important...)

...Don't shrug them off or wave them off or do whatever you 
do to dismiss and discount them; that only strengthens your 
mistaken belief that you don't deserve to be praised.

Say "thank you" politely, and soak in it. 

This may feel a little uncomfortable at first,  
but it's worth GOLD. 

An added 'bonus' of accepting other's compliments with 
humility is that others will start to see *you* in a different 
light! 

You will come across MUCH more confident, attractive and 
self-assured. 

And you will begin to "attract" this into your reality. 

-------------------------------------------- 
3. Empower Your Inner-Beliefs!
-------------------------------------------- 

How you feel about yourself, and the relationship you have 
with yourself is *ALL* part of the 'inner-beliefs' that are 
stored in your unconscious. 

This mostly happens at a young age - and is selectively 
reinforced by your experiences as you get older. 

It's like a whirlpool... You only 'see' what your 
subconscious believes is true, and in turn that enforces what 
your subconscious 'knows' to be true. 

...Then you start seeing more and more of what your 
subconscious believes....and so it goes, on and on. 

The easiest way to break this cycle is to change (and uplift!) 
the "beliefs" you have of yourself ...and of your abilities. 

How?

By literally 'reprogramming' your mind with the  recovery
programme with beliefs like HOW,sharing & caring that
