It's so simple to become your biggest critic when life takes a different route. You believe that everything happens for a reason, yet you still get to the point of being hard on yourself because of those results. It's time to take a step back and realize that not everything is always going to work out perfectly. This is something that we struggle with because we are the hardest on ourselves generally. We have control over what we do and how we feel, which makes it even easier to become angry when things don't go our way or result as expected. Yet, we still tend to make ourselves feel bad about these situations and beat yourself up about decisions and outcomes. The more that we do this, the worse that we go about handling these feelings and supporting ourselves in general.
This is when the importance of treating yourself comes into play because it's so easy to hate every past decision that was made. The more that we take a few minutes to think about the good, the better we can frame ourselves. Everyone has a different perception of themselves as well as others due to human nature which is completely expected. It's the second that we separate those two, and think about how we treat ourselves which makes the biggest difference. If we don't love ourselves and accept the flaws that will occur, how can we let anyone else into our lives? We need to accept our differences and focus on making our lives better instead of holding onto what is hurting us.
We all do this, as much as we don't want to admit that it's true. Yet it's the second that we talk about it in which a difference is actually made. The more that we think about what we want to change and how it'll positively affect our lives, the easier it'll be to push that into action. As much as every action causes a reaction, we have a major in part in making all of that happen. The more we think of ourselves in a positive light as well as focus on self-improvement, the better our own outcomes will be. Don't get me wrong life isn't perfect, but there's always room to search for happiness and make it everything that you've ever wanted.
Focus on the aspects of life that make you smile and keep you on your feet, allow yourself to make those larger aspects of your life to maintain your happiness. When making mistakes, think about what you did wrong but also what you've done right in handling the situation. As much as you may have been disappointed in your actions, reflect on it and find new ways to take control of situations that may be similar to this. Every day is a new day, and you'll have a new footing on a situation that may have scared you in the past.
