Self love part 1 - keeping commitments to ourselves
Self love part 1 - keeping commitments to ourselves
“Self-love is dynamic; it grows through actions that mature us.” For the rest of the month of February I am going to explore this idea of self love. In this episode I talk about developing more self - love and trust through keeping commitments we make to ourselves. I share some ideas on ways we can take small steps and really decide what we want, not what we think we should be doing. Finally at the end making sure we put our own twist on the commitment, goal or habit so we can really take ownership of what we want to accomplish. It's amazing how the little things can make all the difference.
Show Notes: Hi Friends! I hope you enjoyed listening to this episode. Below are all the references.

"Self-love is not simply a state of feeling good. It is a state of appreciation for oneself that grows from actions that support our physical, psychological and spiritual growth. Self-love is dynamic; it grows through actions that mature us. When we act in ways that expand self-love in us, we begin to accept much better our weaknesses as well as our strengths, have less need to explain away our short-comings, have compassion for ourselves as human beings struggling to find personal meaning, are more centered in our life purpose and values, and expect living fulfillment through our own efforts."

Stop Beating yourself up with this One Mental Trick by Tad Lusk
“This might sound strange, but when you’re saying “should” or “shouldn’t” whether aimed at yourself or others, you’re denying the present reality. The fact is, you ARE, they ARE, or it IS, regardless of what you prefer. Thinking something “should” be different is fruitless IF you’re not proposing a way to change it.
“ But when [we] can acknowledge that something “could” be better or you “would like” it to be different, [it] opens the door to thinking more constructively about how to change it, rather than just beating yourself up.”
University of Texas Commencement address in 2014
“If you make your bed every morning, you will have accomplished the first task of the day. It will give you a small sense of pride, and it will encourage you to do another task, and another, and another. And by the end of the day that one task completed will have turned into many tasks completed."
“Making your bed will also reinforce the fact that the little things in life matter. If you can’t do the little things right, you’ll never be able to do the big things right. And if by chance you have a miserable day, you will come home to a bed that is made—that you made. And a made bed gives you encouragement that tomorrow will be better.”
“So if you want to change the world start off by making your bed.” I listened to the whole talk and he has 10 more additional things he suggests to change the world, but he says to begin the day making your bed. "
From the Book of Mormon
Alma 37:6-7 : 6 Now ye may suppose that this is afoolishness in me; but behold I say unto you, that by bsmall and simple things are great things brought to pass; and small means in many instances doth confound the wise.
7 And the Lord God doth work by ameans to bring about his great and eternal purposes; and by very bsmall means the Lord doth cconfound the wise and bringeth about the salvation of many souls.
