Relationship to Self / Self-Talk

Self-Check:

What choices have you been making to honor yourself?

What choices have you made in spite of your wishes / desires / needs?

Can you give yourself as much credit for the positive things you’ve done as you have for the mistakes that you’ve made?

What are you proud of?

How does it feel to hype yourself up instead of putting yourself down?

Your relationship with yourself is sort of like an arranged marriage. You didn’t have a choice of your partner - but you are stuck with yourself for life. You have the choice to resent yourself and fight against the inevitable lifelong partnership; or you have the choice to embrace yourself and learn how to love yourself in the ways that you need.

Do you want to be - and do you want to have - a nagging spouse OR a perpetual hype-man?
