Self Awareness and Self Love

Posted on October 15, 2020 by Nasar Ahmad, One of Thousands of Life Coaches on Noomii.

Self awareness is attractive. If you know why you do the things that you do – or why you feel the things that you feel – you are more likely to be able to act and speak in a manner that serves you.

When you serve yourself, you will be able to empathize with other’s actions and words. With greater empathy comes emotional intelligence which often translates into #success.

Just like getting six pack abs is no mean achievement, self awareness requires discipline, desire and a commitment to yourself. But the results are totally worth it.

The next step after self-awareness is self love.

Self-love is true love!

We all have asked our partners this question: how much do you love me? “To the moon and back” or “with my whole heart and soul” or “as much as there is water in the ocean”.

But when was the last time you asked yourself this question? And what answers did you get? Do you love yourself to the moon and back? If you hesitate to answer, ever wonder why?

Why can we wax lyrical when it comes to expressing love for others but shy away from showing it to our own self?

Is it years of conditioning?

Is this the age of self-love deficit?

What does self love mean anyway?

How is it different from selfishness or self indulgence?
