On this occasion I will write about loving myself, this is the title given to the hive learners contest in week 45 of the first edition.
In this life, we are separated from two words that are related to each other, namely the word hate and the word love. In the 44th week of the third edition, I discussed something that we hate in ourselves and I think it is very closely related to this edition and is also a the opposite of the edition,
Loving oneself is one of the characteristics that a person has in living this life because loving oneself is more important than loving other people and other objects, and loving oneself is highly recommended and required for someone because loving oneself means that person has perform an obligation.
Loving yourself is one way among ways to find the best in yourself. So that everything we do has a very beautiful ending. However, sometimes loving yourself is more difficult than loving someone else. That's because there are things that can make us unhappy with the current situation.
Loving ourselves means that we can accept any situation and never feel less, and don't need to compare with others. Loving ourselves will also make us free from social burdens. That way we will be able to focus more on what we have now, and have other people.
In the end, when we are able to love ourselves, we will feel more confident and wise in our actions. We cannot love others until we love ourselves first.
Loving yourself or more with the term self-love does not mean that we are selfish and develop a deviant narcissistic personality, instead, we accept all the advantages without feeling arrogant but also remain open-minded in order to embrace all the shortcomings without being covered up.
Loving yourself must be wholeheartedly and without any conditions. Loving ourselves means that we meet all our needs and not sacrifice our well-being to please others. Then how do you love yourself? Let's look at some of the following ways to love yourself.
Here are some ways we can do to be able to love ourselves that we can do, including
A. About yourself
We have to learn about ourselves first, we can do this by communicating and making peace with ourselves, after that, find various answers that are propping up, such as what do you want to achieve, what is your biggest fear and what are your strengths. we have.
B. Fulfills one's own needs perfectly
How to love ourselves can be done by being friendly with ourselves, such as paying attention to physical, psychological, spiritual and mental needs. And we also do it by maintaining a healthy body. With a healthy lifestyle that we do regularly is a gift and reward in ourselves. Make sure all our needs are met in a healthy way, and we can start in a gradual way. For example, consuming healthy food and not staying up too much.
C. Get rid of negative thoughts
Not only releasing pent up emotions but also need to eliminate negative thoughts. Sometimes these thoughts make us tormented and often humble ourselves. Try to think about positive things so that we are more confident and love ourselves. And also we should reduce hearing, reading and seeing negative news because it will lead to continuous negative thoughts.
D. Always associate with positive-minded people
We should always try to always associate with people who think positively and they want to love us, and this makes ourselves better. And we will always get used to a good mindset.
Those are some ways that we can love ourselves and there are many other ways to love ourselves that I didn't write about in this post. May we become people who love ourselves and thank ourselves.
I am very grateful to be someone who can love myself and protect myself from things that can damage myself. I love myself by always thinking positively because by thinking positively my life becomes calm without the burden that often haunts my mind, and every day I always hang out with people who are older than me, both old and old in knowledge and experience so that I am always taught to be grateful for what I already have and to be grateful for the health and abilities that have been given to myself and finally I become a human being who lives quietly and loves myself.
Based on my discussion above, I can conclude that.
In carrying out this life we cannot be separated from self-love and hatred.
Loving ourselves is an obligation that we must do to achieve peace of mind.
By loving ourselves means we have been grateful to ourselves.
We can love ourselves in several ways such as trying to love ourselves, always think positively, hang out with people who think positively,
What I do to love myself is to live a simple life and always be grateful for what I have, I always prioritize healthy living and always consume healthy food.
That's all I can write on this occasion, I hope my writing is useful for all of us and thank you for the support from all my friends.

Thank you
Enjoy loving yourself
