Hello everyone,
This week’s Motivational Monday theme is “be nice to yourself”.
The following quote was taken from “Think Happy, Be Happy: art. Inspiration, joy” by: Workman Publishing Co., Inc.
“Be Nice to Yourself. It’s hard to be happy when someone’s mean to you all the time.”
This week if you catch yourself being mean, pause and challenge that thought with a more realistic or positive one.
For example, you may tell yourself, “I am so ugly”.
You can then challenge that thought with,
“I may not like the way I look today so let me focus on what makes me happy i.e. exercising, writing, spending time with friends and family.” or
“I need to stop imagining what other people think of me and start listing all the ways I am healthy and strong.” or
“I am nice to everyone else so today I will save some of that generosity for myself.”
Keeping it real,
Janine
