The voice in your head makes a judgment that you are a failure for not meeting the mental image and you end up feeling “not good enough.” All of this because you don’t meet the conceptual images you fabricated in your mind; an image that isn’t even real.  Accepting yourself is one of the many ingredients leading to achieving a personal happiness.

Self-acceptance, the power to personal happiness. Happiness is a mental or emotional state of well-being. We all want to be happy. But how do you achieve it? Even if you don’t have much happiness in your life, there are some steps you can take to increase your chances of finding it.

Self-acceptance is one of the main ingredients of a happy and satisfying life, yet it is a practice that most of us struggle with from time to time. Self-acceptance means accepting ourselves as we are, including our imperfections, limitations and weaknesses. Self-acceptance is unconditional, meaning that in order to truly accept oneself, a person does so without conditions and not only when they achieve a certain standard.

Self acceptance is the first step toward achieving personal happiness. If trying to “be something different” creates an expression of self rejection, then the solution is to create an expression of self acceptance. Saying this in words is simple, but doing this is not necessarily easy. As long as we are rejecting our current experience and looking for a different one, we will never be content in this moment. When you’re struggling with your weaknesses, you can’t see your positive qualities. But self-acceptance opens the door to all of who you are as a human being. And when you’re aware of the great attributes you possess, you can harness them to help you make your life work well.


I hope that this shines a light on your heart today.
Because of His love on Calvary, I am forever a secured package
