‘How can I better a better … ?’ is one of my favourite questions. It can be useful and informative in many areas of life.

Recently a friend asked a form of this question to me and I want to share my answer with you today.

I said, “Be as nice to yourself as you are to me.”

Sometimes people are wonderful people but their self-talk is terrible, they are so hard on themselves, they forgive everyone but themselves, they are gentle with other’s mistakes but not their own.
I suspect my friend is not alone and if this resonates with you then I’m speaking to you too.

What would happen if you were as nice, gentle and kind to yourself as you are to others?

Hmmm. How about we all try that this week? Like a little social experiment? Are you in??

Being as nice to yourself as you are to your ________ (fill in the blank with someone you are very nice to) it’s just one more way to live Your Life, Unlimited!

All the best, Steph
