The most important lesson you’ll learn in the school of life is: You teach others how to treat you.
If you expect honesty—are you being honest?
If you expect R.E.S.P.E.C.T—are you being respectful?
If you expect to be yourself—are you trying to change the others?
So before you present your list of complaints to the people in your life, examine the relationship you have with yourself.
How are you treating your mind-body-spirit?
- Mind—are you focused on what you don’t want and are your thoughts always negative?
- Body—are you eating junk food and leading a sedentary lifestyle?
- Spirit—are you neglecting your self-care?
Sure, you might have a ton of excuses such as a lack of time. But don’t you think you are important enough to show yourself some love?
So spend at least 20 minutes daily in stillness-solitude-silence and most importantly, take care of your mind-body-spirit.
Not only will you rejuvenate your energy, but the amazing relationship you have with yourself, will be reflected back to you by the types of people you attract in your life.
“A woman who is convinced that she deserves to accept only the best challenges herself to give the best. Then she is living phenomenally.”~Maya Angelou
