So this is a message that I sent to a friend of mine, because it is something that I believe would be good for the both of us, but then when I was done writing it. I had a desire to share it with all of you as well. For my friend that I sent this to. I hope that you will be willing to try this with me. Here it is: So a friend of mine just gave me a new challenge, and I am going to give it a try. His advice was to think back on your entire life and make a list of all the things that you have done right. Even those little things that may not seem like much to anyone else, but they meant something to you. Those little feel good moments when you were able to smile back to yourself because you did something that you believe in. Dont pay attention to any of the mistakes or things that upset you. If you want you can make that list later. But on your positive list, try your best to be complete, you can even add in little stuff like when you smiled at someone, and they smiled back because you know that you made them feel at least a little better for that moment. Then look at the entire list as a whole, and ask yourself why you did those things. Then anytime that you are feeling down on yourself, your mad at yourself, regretting mistakes, or just feeling like you are not good enough or that you dont deserve something good when it comes your way. Pull out that list, and review it again, and realize the underlying truth in it all. That you are good enough, that you deserve to be happy, that you deserve to be Loved and to Love back, believe that you are worth it, and that things will get better. A lot of times in our lives we all have a tendency to only look at the negative and the self defeating aspects of our lives, and the lives of those we see around us. Today, I challenge you to try this with me. Concentrate on all the things that make us wonderful and realize the reality behind the walls that we build around ourselves. That we are genuinely good, and even though we sometimes make mistakes, that doesnt change who we are deep down inside. Try to realize that even though we dont always feel it or see it within ourselves. There are other people who do. We are good enough, we deserve the good things that come along and we deserve to be Loved.
