Be kind to yourself from "summary" of Year of Yes by Shonda Rhimes
Being kind to yourself is not about being self-indulgent or selfish. It's about recognizing your own worth and treating yourself with the same compassion and understanding that you would offer to a friend in need. It's about acknowledging your own humanity and imperfections, and allowing yourself the grace to make mistakes and learn from them without harsh self-judgment. It's about understanding that you are deserving of love and respect, not just from others but from yourself as well. It's about being gentle with yourself, especially in times of difficulty or failure, and offering yourself the same encouragement and support that you would give to someone else facing a challenge. Being kind to yourself means taking care of your physical, emotional, and mental well-being, and not pushing yourself beyond your limits in pursuit of perfection or productivity. It's about setting boundaries and saying no when necessary, and prioritizing your own needs and happiness. It's about forgiving yourself for past mistakes and letting go of guilt and shame, and moving forward with a sense of self-compassion and acceptance. It's about practicing self-care and self-love, and recognizing that you are worthy of happiness, fulfillment, and success.- Being kind to yourself is a radical act of self-love that can transform the way you see yourself and the world around you. It's a commitment to treating yourself with the same kindness and compassion that you would extend to others, and embracing your own worthiness and humanity without reservation or apology.
