“The fact that someone else loves you doesn't rescue you from the project of loving yourself.” — Sahaj Kohli

In 2019 the most important conversation you will have is the one you have with yourself.

Take control of your internal dialogue. Taking control of your own internal dialogue is the first step towards taking control of your overall narrative. Be kind to yourself more often and you will be surprised at how often you are more kind to others.

I’ve shared this before, but I love high reps with big truths when I’m in the mental gym:

What’s really wild to understand is that ultimately self-love is a selfless act of love. I feel a greater ability to love others when I love myself. I am a better ‘me’ for my loved ones, my friends, basically anyone I cross paths with. A part of me wonders if it’s because part of the journey is looking inside and recognizing more and more of my faults and flaws — and loving myself enough to work on them and forgive myself for my shortcomings — and in doing all of this I grow my capacity to love and forgive others in spite of their shortcomings.

In short, learning how to love myself, is myself learning how to better love others.
