One Positive Action
Compliment Yourself
We’re so quick to compliment other people, yet when was the last time you genuinely said something kind about yourself? Probably never. And that’s a problem.
Start small. Look in the mirror and find one thing you like. Maybe it’s your smile or the way your eyes light up when you’re really happy. Maybe it’s not even physical, maybe you’re proud of how you handled a tough situation or how you always try to be there for your friends. Say it out loud. Yeah, it feels weird, but the truth is, the words you say to yourself stick more than you think.
The world isn’t going to hand out compliments every day, and sometimes, you’ve got to be your own cheerleader. No one knows what you’re going through or what it’s taken to get here better than you do. You’ve earned a little credit. And honestly, if the compliments feel forced at first, that’s okay. Keep doing it. With time, it’ll feel less weird and more like a quiet act of self-respect.
Because here’s the thing: the way you talk to yourself matters. When you start speaking to yourself with kindness, you’ll notice it changes how you feel, even in the smallest ways. You’re not perfect, nobody is, but that doesn’t mean you don’t deserve to hear something good from the person who matters most: you.
