GIVE YOURSELF PERMISSION TO LIKE YOURSELF
You are your own best date and most entertaining companion. Too many people
seek dates or mates because they are bored with themselves. If you bore
yourself, there is little reason to think that someone else will be thrilled
with your company. Consider the following truisms:
- You'll never be happy with or truly love anyone until you're happy with
and truly love yourself.
- People are drawn to those who like themselves. Everybody wants to be
around someone who is having a good time. Self-confidence screams sex appeal.
- Sometimes, being with someone you feel no connection with can be
lonelier than being alone
- Most people don't think highly enough of themselves.
The conclusion? The key to happiness, whether you find a mate or not, is to
love yourself.
Your goal is to give yourself permission to like yourself, appreciate
yourself, and give yourself the time and attention your would give a lover.
Remember the Army's advertising slogan: "Be all that your can be." Do
all that you can do, and you'll have all that you can have.
