Happy Self Care Sunday. Let's have a party! Party, party! I am in a good mood today, hopefully you are too, and if you aren't, try to find a way to get there!
So if you follow me on ze facebook and twitter you are probably familiar with the self-care tips and quotes that I post on a daily basis. There's actually a process to this involving hootsuite, which allows you to schedule posts to go out on your social media. Pretty cool, right?
Every week, usually on Tuesdays, I schedule a week's worth of quotes and tips and links. It usually takes me over two hours to compile everything because I am pretty picky with what I share with you. I try to find new quotes, think of new tips to share, add in pictures or videos, I love giving you all a dose of inspiration. Last week, I was working on the self-care tips and an amazing one occurred to me, and it was posted on Wednesday so you might have already seen it.
Self Care Tip: Get a piece of paper, write down what 'beauty', 'success', and 'love' mean to you. Don't ever let someone else change those definitions.
I fell in love with this idea that fell out of my brain.
So today you have a little homework assignment.
Write down what beauty means to you.
Beauty means so much more to me than what's on the outside. I love those people that don't look 'traditionally' beautiful but there's a light that just shines out of them because they are okay with who they are. When it comes to myself I like my curly, crazy, hair. I'm cool with hairy legs. Eyeliner is as much make-up as I wear and I feel comfortable and pretty like that.
Don't let anyone change your definition of what beauty means to you and what makes you feel comfortable.
Write down what success means to you.
I wrote a blog about this a few weeks ago for Wishcasting Wednesday. Business-wise I guage my success by how I am able to inspire others. I don't need to make money, I just need to spread my message, and as long as I am doing that, then I consider myself a success. In my personal life, as long as I am happy that's what matters. I've had people tell me that unless I procreate my life is meaningless because nothing that I do will be carried on. I beg to differ!
Write down what love means to you.
This one is a toughie because there is such a thing as compromise, which you have to do in a relationship. No one is going to be 100% perfect. However, don't change your definition of what love is when someone hits you. Don't change your definition when someone cheats on you, berates you, or mistreats you. Stick to your definition and don't bend to someone else's!
