Could You Benefit from More Self-Compassion?

Could You Benefit from More Self-Compassion? - Friday's Quote of the Day

Published: Fri, 09/04/20

Hi ,

It's Friday,

September 4, 2020.

Quote:

"Our culture does not emphasize self-compassion, quite the opposite. We're told that no matter how hard we try, our best just isn't good enough. It's time for something different. We can all benefit by learning to be more self-compassionate, and now is the perfect time to start."
--- Kristin Neff

Why do people beat themselves up for so long when they make a mistake, an error, say the wrong thing, or just blew it?

Beating yourself up doesn't correct anything, it only makes you feel worse. You know you are your own worst critic, right? Try being your own best friend. Give yourself a break and start looking at all you do right in your life. You will be amazed at how being a friend to yourself feels.

Have a great Friday and take care!

Love and Blessings,
Marlene
