Burst of Happyness

Self-love has a huge role to play to make our lives happy and meaningful, build confidence and self-acceptance. However, the concept of self-love is much abused – it doesn’t mean accepting yourself as it is – this is an excuse to get away with all our unhealthy and toxic habits. Self-love involves introspecting – acknowledging our mistakes and consciously working on improving ourselves continuously. Self-Love means prioritizing our dreams and trying new things and experiences to make your life more rich It involves saying no to things, which you disagree with or those which fails to fit with your own plans – you don’t have to do something just coz others are doing it.
