Encourage Yourself




It's very easy to beat yourself up and feel horrible about yourself
We need to remember that we must encourage ourselves

We have to be careful what we think about and what we say

Let's not focus on the past you may not be able to do anything about it but you can do something about your future.  Feeling guilty all the time will not make you a better person. When you are feeling bad about yourself, you are most likely to make another mistake.
We need to continue to press forward because guilt will steal your joy

Don't allow what others say about you put you down

"Your value doesn't go down because someone mistreated you" Joel Osteen


So what are some good ways to encourage yourself?

1) Treat yourself
It's ok to do something that you enjoy paint your nails, go out for a coffee, get a facial

2) Spend time with good friends
Make sure you spend time with people who lift you up and encourage you. It's not wise to spend time with people who put you down and don't understand the dreams that you have for your life.

3) Be careful what you say about yourself
It's very easy to talk bad about yourself but this is something that we really cannot do because the way see ourselves is how others will see you.

4) Watch or read something that makes you laugh

There are plenty of ways to encourage yourself
