What if someone walked up to you and told you that you were fat or ugly. What would you say? What would you react like? Would you feel angry or confused? Would you wonder if you were really fat or ugly?
Now, imagine that someone comes up to you and says the complete opposite and tells you how beautiful that you are. How would that make you feel? Would you feel happy and would you be able to accept that and accept that to be truth?
What if it’s You?
What happens when you are the one that talks negatively to yourself? Do you constantly put yourself down and forget that you need to hear words of appreciation? Do you want to say things that are better? Saying good things to yourself are affirmations.
