Some speak so badly about themselves, I’ve noticed.

How you speak about yourself, sets a standard of how others will treat you. They won’t have any respect for you, either. Further, the heart is lessoned by what it hears. If you don’t learn to love yourself as is, no one else will, either. You weren’t even born a loser, but somewhere along the way, you believed a lie someone told you. People never determine your worth. You do. You set the standard on who you are and how you expect to be treated.

If you saw yourself coming down the street and met yourself, would you like that person? Sure you would!! You’d think you were a pretty good person. Start treating yourself that way. You need yourself. Yourself needs YOU. Don’t abandon, but nourish and shower that child inside with much love, that needs you more than anything. Make a new beginning. Start today.
I don't know Grace. I try to be honest and good to people, it isn't difficult... although I have been called a narcissist before.

I try to avoid talking about myself. People don't seem to like hearing about my contentment, but surprisingly will listen to me go on and on about the things I consider my faults.
@LithiumDrop Most have proclaimed that as long as one is happy, people are right there, but no one seems to want to hang around someone with woes, a negative attitude, and problems. I hope that is changing. However, I’ve seen the opposite.

You’re right, though. People don’t like hearing about the good and accomplishments, either. They get jealous. They say misery loves company. I say be there for people and love them through the storms, not just in the good times. The problem lies, however, in the fact that some never [i]want[/i] to try and better themselves. They just want to do nothing but complain. That gets exhausting. That is unhealthy, negative thinking. Stinking thinking. 😆
