Self love is the ultimate personal growth endeavor. By learning how to love yourself, you’ll also learn how to find happiness, love, success, fulfillment, and contentment. Learning how to love yourself first isn’t easy – and this is not something that is going to happen overnight. But if you can commit to practicing self love as much as possible, I promise you’ll see the benefits.

I’m going to walk you through a few of my self love tips to help you practice on your own. But remember, if you really want to accelerate your results, I always recommend working one-on-one with a life coach. They will keep you accountable and offer tailored advice on how you as an individual can work towards effortless self love.

Let’s get started!

 

Do Things For Yourself

 

There’s an old school political philosophy that I follow religiously when it comes to self-love.

The theory goes that in order to get people to invest in you, you need to get them to do stuff for you, and not the other way around.

Which means, you need to start doing a lot of nice things for yourself.

Meditate. Get your nails done. Take a break. Hire a life coach. Read that book. Take a bath. Learn a new skill. Call a friend. Pay for a class. Buy the dress. Get a massage. Invest in yourself.

 

The more you do things that show you love yourself – the easier it will be to believe that you love yourself.

 

Think about it: We love to get returns on our investments. That’s why we tend to stay in bad relationships too long or stay at the poker table for one more try to break even. We want to see our investments generate exciting things for ourselves!

Therefore, the more you get used to doing nice things for yourself, the more invested you will be in your own happiness.
