Have you ever thought about what “I Love Me More” means to you?
A friend of mine once had an ‘aha’ moment after I explained to her the concept of “I Love Me More“.
After a few weeks of contemplating this idea, she realized that she hadn’t been valuing herself enough.
It suddenly clicked…that her not valuing herself resulted in her allowing herself to continue dating this guy who didn’t treat her with much value.
She said “I imagined it as if myself and I were like two separate people—me and my reflection in the mirror—I needed to value myself more”.
For many months, she had been looking for this guy to show her that he valued her, when she really needed to show herself that she was valuable.
Once this concept clicked for her, she decided she needed to “love herself more” and break the relationship off. And she never looked back.
She ended up meeting, and eventually getting engaged to someone that treats her like a queen…as she deserves. As we all deserve.
This really is such a powerful concept to embody.
You are in a relationship with yourself. And that’s the most important relationship you’ve got!
So how are you treating you?
Relationships with others, especially a partner, simply reflect back to us the relationship we have with ourselves.
If you want respect, you have to respect yourself first.
If you want to be treated with value, you have to first treat yourself with value.
If you want happiness, you have to make yourself happy.
If we want that deep-kind-of love from someone else, we have to first be deeply in love with ourselves.
It has to start with us. Everyone else follows our lead.
