Words are powerful, and they have the ability to lift someone up or knock them down. For this reason, it’s important that we choose them wisely, and speak kindly to others on a daily basis. But does it seem like we’re not always doing the same with ourselves?

It can be easy to be judgemental about our own imperfections, which leads us to forget how awesome we really are. So, if you’re not going to be kind to yourself – there are things you SHOULD be hearing from others every day. After all, it’s the truth!

You’re beautiful inside and out.

If only we looked at ourselves the same way others viewed us, likely there would be a different picture. It’s your happy smile, your kind heart, your bright eyes, and your joyful laugh that people notice. Regardless of your looks or your size – you’re beautiful because you’re YOU!

You have unbelievable strength.

It’s not just people who overcome major hurdles that are strong. Remember, it takes strength to walk this earth every day and tackle all of life’s little problems too. So, give yourself some credit.

You have the power to make it a great day.

There are certain situations that could truly make it feel like a “bad day.” Yet, typically we’re the ones in the driver’s seat when it comes to it being a good day or bad one. Try and steer away from negativity and instead focus on positivity, the people you care about, and the things that make you happy.

You can (and DO) make a difference in this world.

We all have the ability to perform random acts of kindness. Even if it doesn’t seem that big, a kind act can change someone’s day – or sometimes even their life. It’s also contagious! Never forget that you make a difference in the lives of the people around you.

Your past mistakes aren’t what define you.

Let’s face it, we’ve ALL made innocent mistakes. Nobody is perfect. There’s no need to dwell and beat yourself up over something that was a MISTAKE. Instead, concentrate on the present and all the wonderful things about yourself.

You don’t have to keep up with others.

Being jealous isn’t anything new and something we’ve probably all felt at times. However, in today’s age with social media, we get a closer look into people’s lives more than ever before. In one sitting you might see photos of vacations, new homes, and fun nights out on the town. But remember that photos don’t tell a whole story and making comparisons isn’t good for your inner-self. Just be proud of your own accomplishments!

You’re so loved and you’re never alone.

Sometimes we can get lost in the negative thoughts in our heads, leading us down paths of feeling sad, worrisome, and alone. These are the times, especially, when you need to be reminded of how much you are loved – and that others would help pick you up in a heartbeat. By hearing the words every day hopefully it keeps you feeling positive.
