LOVING YOURSELF IS THE BEST WAY TO LIVE YOUR LIFE.
Self–love means having a high regard for your own well-being and happiness. Self–love means taking care of your own needs and not sacrificing your well-being to please others. Self–love means not settling for less than you deserve.
Self-confidence is understanding that you trust your own judgment and abilities, and that you value yourself and feel worthy, regardless of any imperfections or of what others may believe about you.
Kindness is defined as the quality of being friendly, generous, and considerate. Affection, gentleness, warmth, concern, and care are words that are associated with kindness.
