One good thing I'm grateful for - 29

I have a lot to be grateful for. Tonight though I'm going to list remind myself of my ability and luxury to practice self love. I didn't do as much as I wanted to, but I had the strength and courage to do what was truly important in terms of building the foundation for self love, and that is not letting myself treat me poorly due to laziness,  distraction  and carelessness. I prayed, washed my face, brushed my teeth and am writing in this journal. All it took was 15 mins. 
I want to write a speech and will dedicate time to it!

Food for thought - building confidence, self awareness and love

Practice tolerating and welcoming imperfection, uncertainty, and failure. If you stop fighting imperfection and learn to embrace it, confidence will follow.

When we consistently act in a way that’s contrary to our own values, we erode our trust in ourselves — and along with it, our self-confidence
