Don’t Settle!
Don’t allow yourself to settle for someone or something that doesn’t reflect your TRUE value. YOU are WORTH so more than that!
Do You Give Yourself Permission To Live?
What would your life look like if you gave yourself permission to do what you truly desire?
Lately, the notion of self-permission has been emerging from my mind. Whether in my personal life, business, family members, or mere observation of other people.
This is a theme that I keep encountering.
The main thing that keep coming up for me is that I am NOT stuck! On occasion, I can have the illusion of feeling “stuck”. However, I’m discovering that I’m holding myself back in some area. Which I’m not giving myself permission to do or say the things that I truly desire. It can be due to fear (rejection), doubt (second guessing), or low confidence (being vulnerable). Or waiting for an external validation (e.g. family, friends, colleagues, or etc.) for permission to take that next step.
I noticed that I was the one that was holding myself up. It was not other people (most cases), because, I still have the power of CHOICE. Am I going to stay in this situation or leave? Am I going to speak my truth or remain silent? What I am learning is that anyone can get UNSTUCK! When you make a decision to give yourself permission to begin living your life.
Oftentimes, we are conditioned to live up to certain expectations from our society,family, culture or any external factors that are heavy influences in our lives. I know that self-permission is liberating (sense of freedom) and it’s part of self-discovery. You’ll begin to recognize certain gifts,talents, or interests that you enjoy that you rarely noticed before. You can begin to fall in love (or more in love) with your life and make decisions from an empowered place. You’ll begin to notice that you manifest more desirable experience in your life,because, you are more aligned with your authentic self. Your dreams, desires, and life are waiting on YOU to say YES!
Heart Reflections
1) Where are you holding yourself back in your life?
2) How can you give yourself permission to start living more authentically?
3) What can your life look like when you start giving yourself permission to BE YOU?

Today’s Affirmation: ” When I Look In The Mirror, I LOVE What I See!”
When you look in the mirror, what do you see? Do you LOVE what you see? What thoughts are running in your mind? Are they Positive or negative thoughts?
It took me a while to allow myself to fully appreciate my body. There were some parts that I LOVED and others parts didn’t receive much LOVE from me. Why didn’t I embrace ALL of me? I believe that some of it was contributed to societal “standard of beauty”. On rare occasions I felt like I was less than BEAUTIFUL. Now, I’m in a place that accepts the WHOLE ME, not parts of myself.
Remember that “beauty is in the eye of the beholder”, which is YOU!
LOVE Nuggets
– You have to see yourself as BEAUTIFUL, whether or not some else acknowledges your BEAUTY.
– Look in the mirror for at
least 5 minutes, allow yourself to be vulnerable with YOU.
– When you look in the mirror, say something POSITIVE about yourself.
Day 28 (30 Days Of LOVE Affirmations ™ )
Today’s Affirmation: “ The LOVE That I Have For Myself And Others Is Constantly Increasing”
As I continue to grow more and more in Self-LOVE, the LOVE I have for other people increases as well. What do I mean? When I keep my LOVE tank filled, I’m able to give and serve others without compromising my boundaries. My capacity to give and receive LOVE increases when I operate from a place of wholeness.
When you LOVE yourself, the way you relate to others comes from a wholehearted place. If your capacity to LOVE yourself is small, it can become your point of reference of how you perceive people. The way how you see yourself can determine your overall outlook on life. Self-LOVE is the foundation of every relationship, which first begins with a relationship with yourself.
LOVE Nuggets
– What is ONE act of Self-LOVE that you can you can do today? For example, establishing or reinforcing healthy boundaries.
-When was the last time you checked your LOVE tank? Is it full or empty?
– Self-LOVE is not selfish, making yourself a priority is beneficial for the people in your life.
Day 27 (30 Days Of LOVE Affirmations ™ )
Today’s Affirmation: “ Each Day I Am Growing In Self-LOVE That’s Preparing For My Romantic Partner”
Before, I became a Certified Creative Love® Coach I was a client. It was a new thing
for me to work with a LOVE coach. It really stretched my out of my comfort zone and led me on my path of Self–LOVE. Which evolved into Self-LOVE that shifted my perception of LOVE and relationships. What I learned is that Self-LOVE is the foundation for every relationship.
If you are a single man or woman and “waiting” for that special person to enter your life. How are you preparing for that LOVE relationship you deeply desire? What is your personal outlook on LOVE and relationships? Are you hopeful of somewhat skeptical?
The more grow in Self-LOVE, you’ll notice that your authentic self gradually emerges. That special person that will come into life will accept YOU for who you are, because, they will be a reflection of you.
LOVE Nuggets
– If you are seeking to be in a committed romantic relationship, seek within first. Because, the LOVE you seek begins with YOU.
