07 Mar (New Video Post) #DearMe – Self Love Satuday Edition #SelfLoveSaturday
Happy Self Love Saturday!
Today I took part in the #DearMe Campaign that youtube is doing to celebrate international women’s day. They have a great campaign going encouraging women to make videos giving advice to your younger self. I took awhile to think about exactly what I would say to “younger Andrea” and the main thing I wish I could’ve told her is to “love herself”. I wish I knew the power of self love when I was younger and that I invested in loving myself a lot sooner, but like Maya Angelou once told me “everything happens in it’s time”. The advice I touched on in this video is:
1. You Are Enough: Let go of the fear and the notion that you are not enough, because you most absolutely are! You are uniquely created and you are enough.
2. Be An Artist: You art fulfills you and makes you happy so explore it, enjoy it, share it and do it because you are an artist.
3. Be Yourself: You don’t have to fit into anyone’s box. You can do whatever and be whoever you want.
4. Appreciate Your Natural Beauty: God gave you a lot of natural beauty, embrace it and make the very best of it!
5. Listen To Your Intuition: That voice inside of your head, heart and gut is there for a reason, don’t doubt it just listen to it always!
6. Don’t Be Afraid of Confrontation: It is important to have your voice heard, so don’t be afraid to speak up for what you believe, what you think is right, when you’re feeling wronged or simply when you have a better idea!
7. Happiness Comes From Within: There is no outside factor that is going to make you happy if you don’t find the happiness within yourself first.
8. Appreciate The Struggle: I know it might seem hard but appreciate the struggle and the rejection. These times will help you to grow and learn and become better.
9. You Are Great: If only my younger self could know then what I know now, she would know just how great she’s going to be!
