Master Yourself: The Key to Thriving in Any Situation!

I don’t want to toot my own horn, but many people have told me how I’ve helped them in some way.

On the flip side, the one person I have the most challenging time helping is myself!

It seems ironic, but it makes a lot of sense when you think about it. It’s easier to see what others are dealing with and decide how to navigate their struggles as outsiders.

As I’ve said before, we are our own biggest critics. We view ourselves and our issues in a completely biased and judgmental way. When our friends or loved ones come to us with their problems, we view them more logically and advise them accordingly.

So, why do we do this to ourselves? Even me, who is out here preaching about self-love and self-care!

Sometimes, we need someone to see what we’re going through through their eyes. We need another set of eyes and ears to break it down for us when we’re lost, spiraling, or too deep in it to see what’s really happening.

It’s so helpful to have that voice of reason to point out the obvious. We often already know but may not want to admit or face it. We don’t want to deal with it or be uncomfortable.

We must step back and realize that this, too, will pass.

Even though it might seem terrible, it’s probably not as bad as it appears when viewed through someone else’s lens.

I don’t want to sugarcoat this for you because that’s not my style, but sometimes it WILL be THAT BAD. It’s those times, especially when knowing how to manage your emotions and your ability to break down your situation becomes vital.

It’s okay sometimes to spiral or lose your way, but you must also learn how to get back on track and work your way through it.

If you can’t, then find someone in your life who can help you. Be that person for someone else.

This is LITERALLY how I got to be where and who I am today. Helping you also helps me. Does that make me selfish? Maybe, but we both win in the end, so don’t worry about it. 😜

Love,

Jess 💕
