Loving myself comes down to how disciplined I am (self trust) and not what I do but why I do it. I do things for good reasons without expectation, I only share love, i never give it away. If I don't keep some, I am unable to truly love. I can adore, desire, lust or long for, but i can't love if I am incomplete in loving myself. I am scared of losing noone because I am comfortable with myself. I am in good company when I am alone. I don't need applause, nor do I need to talk about myself. I learn more from listening and feel even better about myself when I do which allows me to share even more love. I self cultivate love and share it with people who are like minded. I am not afraid to tell people no and I love toxic people from afar. I don't judge them, but i dont allow them to manipulate my energy not cause I don't have compassion for them, but because my love travels much farther with others who are willing to share it as well

[@jaimenajera8201]

Wow, well said.. I need to work on this.. I haven't really heard self discipline as a way to love yourself. You mentioned self trust and that is something I definitely don't have. Thanks for the insight

[@0ijm3409fiwrekj]

Well said, can you elaborate on the difference between giving love and sharing love?

[@michaelhill2933]

@@0ijm3409fiwrekj if I have only one piece of fruit and I give it to you, you look at me with distrust and do not want to take it, if u do take it, i go hungry and I seek from others to fill the void. If I make sure I have two pieces before I give one away. I am sharing my love. One for myself and one for you.

“Simplicity, patience, compassion. These three are your greatest treasures. Simple in actions and thoughts, you return to the source of being.

How do you prepare for tackling unpredictable danger?! I m suffering from anxiety problem, I really enjoy the nature but I have so much fear to leave my home…

[@XsNiPeRPi3z]

@@recuerdos2457 it sounds like you get more anxiety than me, but i just try to let go of it and trust the world, accepting the possibility of danger. we hvae to accept this every day. you're probably more likely to react appropriately to danger if you're calm and alert. at the end of the day, no matter how many fearful plans and thoughts you have, 99.9% of what you think about doesn't even happen, and when that 0.1% does happen, you probably react in a totally different way to what you imagined in your anxious thoughts anyway, so it's pointless. use common sense and don't go to dangerous places and you'll be fine just like all the other people who go there. trust yourself. besides, if you have a plan for something bad happening, you have a way to respond, so don't worry anymore! i know it's not that simple though ahahahaha. here is what works for me: take small steps and go out for short periods and build up from there, spending longer outside each time if you can and seeing if you can practise trusting the world around you, maybe seeing if you can just shift your attention away from your thoughts and into whatever stuff is around you, something in your senses - each time your attention wanders into thoughts or anxiety and you notice this, just gently move your attention back to whatever sensation you were focussing on before. this is all totally okay. ensure your breathing is slow, deep and controlled as this will help you stay calmer and more relaxed. hopefully with all of this you'll slowly begin to train yourself that it's okay to be outside and you aren't always in danger. unfortunately the only way out of this problem is by going right through it. i can only advise you with what's worked for me but i hope it helps

that's all good and well to not compare and devalue yourself when seeing more successful people, but those more successful people certainly do judge those they deem "less successful" and treat them with disrespect

Sir, please make a video series on Advait Vedant philosophy also known as non-dualistic philosophy. The vedant teachers extreme level of self-introspection and critical self-analysis. For reference you can go for Philosopher Adi Shankaracharya literature and 'Vedant' written by Prashant tripathi (Acharya prashant). You can also go for your own reference.

What kills me when I really do tell someone my biggest problem is I don’t love myself it gets looked at as a joke like … I just want attention.

[@kashiefahchetty5354]

Then stop telling them. Stop telling everyone anything about yourself. You only need to talk yourself into better thoughts and better perspectives. You are the most important person in your life

[@Krustkween]

Robin Williams said “I used to think the worst thing in life was to end up all alone. It’s not. The worst thing in life is ending up with people who make you feel all alone.” It’s worse to keep begging for their attention. Self love would be letting them go and focusing on your own introspection, and then accepting all the new people ready to love you into your life.

I agree with and appreciate this video from a conceptual level. However it is naive in the extreme to think that you can move into the artist community without worrying about their approval. Today, that community would tell you what words you can use, what thoughts you can have, and how you can express your art without "harming" anyone. The real answer is do what you do, be grateful, don't worry about what others think, but keep your mouth shut.

[@bellareid3488]

We can still express ourselves but word choice is important. Engage the mind before the mouth.
