Tips on loving yourself:

Have you seen the popular boy or girl in school? Look at the number of friends they have, and what a massive fan following to deal with. But wait, is that what you truly want, because if you look deep within their lives, the same popular boy or girl in school is a lonely child. They wear a mask of happiness, and even though they have an awesome body, wear good clothes, hang out with the rich kids and drive swanky vehicles, deep within they aren’t happy. But does that show? No it doesn’t, because they have learned to love themselves, they have stopped hating the way they are, and because of that others are inspired to be around them and follow them.

The first thing you have got to understand is that you are an individual. Yes, sometimes parents and friends, the society at large can be cruel and they love making comparisons. Right from looks to clothes, the food you eat and how you eat, what time you sleep and what you do when you are idle, they make judgments on everything. However, if you have accepted yourself as an individual with your own needs, remember to ignore others negative remarks and enjoy the blessing and miracle, which is YOU.

Learn that every BODY is unique, so if you too want that flat abs, you need to work for it. You can still eat what you want and yet work out to gain that awesome body. When you stay fit, you stay happy, and you are motivated to dress well too. People then would notice the glow on your face, which comes from inside out. This is because you have motivated yourself to be strong and pleasing, not to others but to yourself first. When people see how much you love being who you are, with your own choices and natural ways, they would want to be your friends. No one wants to be around with someone boring and negative, hence, you have to change yourself for yourself, before allowing others to notice that change in you.
