Valentine's Day - Who holds the key?

I posted this image in a previous blog, but the message is fitting for today as well. First Love Yourself - F.L.Y. How many of you can honestly say that you really and truly LOVE YOURSELF? I know I'm a work in progress, but I love how I feel as I get closer and closer. It's a lot easier to love other people, but the most important person you need to love is yourself! YOU are your most important everything.

Valentine's Day can be a tough day for people. Maybe you're single or maybe your significant other doesn't do Valentine's Day. Perhaps, you just had a break up and the last thing you want is to be reminded of how scary it is to be on your own. Maybe you're too shy or see yourself as undesirable or unworthy and Valentine's Day is just a reminder of that.

In lieu of looking to others for love and approval - why not feel it for yourself? Instead of looking to others to pamper you with gifts, why not do something awesome for yourself? Rather than looking at being on your own as terrifying, see it as liberating and a pause to recalibrate your energy to attract the person you choose to see yourself with. In place of using this day to pile on more negative thoughts about yourself, use it as one to empower yourself. When you love yourself, when you feel and see your own self-worth, others won't be able to help but notice as well. Be the love of your life. YOU are the key to your own heart.

When we love ourselves, we are more open to loving others. When we respect ourselves, we are more apt to respecting others. When we believe in ourselves, we are more likely to believe in others. It starts with you. Love yourself this Valentine's Day and every single day!
