Learning to love yourself more is one of
The most powerful things you can do in regards to self-improvement. It can fix
things like low self-esteem, strong need for validation from others, and also
increase your levels of confidence. So today I'm going to show you exactly how-to
love yourself more. I want you to think about someone that you really like. It
can be a celebrity, a family member, friend, or even a fictional character.
The purposes of this video I'm just going
to use a celebrity that almost everyone likes as an example. I'm going to use
Keanu Reeves. The guy from. The Matrix and John Wick. Now what's so special
about Keanu other than. The fact that he doesn't seem to age? Why do people
love him so much? Well. There's a couple of reasons – but personally what I
like most about him is. The fact that. There's always some story of him going out
of his way to help others out. And what's so special about this is. The fact
that you never hear. These stories from his mouth. It's always some stranger on.
The internet who happened to be. There, witnessing. The good deed, that's
telling you this story. Which means that Keanu Reeves goes around doing good
things all of. The time without ever bragging about it. He doesn't do it for
validation from other people. He doesn't do it for points on. The internet or
for. The attention. He does it because he genuinely likes being good person.
For example – just a couple of weeks ago– Keanu was on a public plane. And for
some reason,. The plane had to do an emergency landing – which you can only
imagine must be pretty scary. Most of. The people on that plane probably
thought that.
They were going to die at one point or
another. Luckily for everyone –. The plane managed to land safely. No one was
injured – but. They landed about100 miles away from. Their intended
destination. So right after. They land – instead of just calling a private taxi
and going his own way - like most celebrities would. Keanu decides to charter a
van. He fills it with as many people from. The planes possible. He pays for.
The entire ride and has. The van drive everyone for two hours to. Their
intended destination. And for. The entire ride - he's looking up fun facts about.
The place. They landed in which was “Bakersfield – California” and he’s playing
country music on his phone so that people feel more at ease. Because again. These
people just experienced an emergency landing on a plane – so you can only
imagine how stressed out and traumatized some of. Them were. And this is just
one example –. There are tons of stories of him picking up hitchhikers, hanging
out with homeless people, giving up his seat on.
The
subway - and just being an all-around good guy. But you never hear any of. These
stories from him, you always hear it from someone else. Now, why am I fan buying
so hard over Keanu Reeves. What does any of this have to do with learning to
love yourself more? Well if you think about it. It's certain traits that make
people so lovable.. The reason I like Keanu Reeves is not because he's a
celebrity of because I love. The Matrix series. I like Keanu because of this
specific trait that he has – which again is doing good deeds without bragging
about it. And this is where. The secret to learning how-to love yourself lies.
All I would have to do is take this trait and add it to my character and just
like that I would start loving myself more. If I started doing good deeds and
never bragged about it I would start loving myself more. Because if you start
incorporating. The favorite traits of people that you admire and love. If you
take. The reasons why you love. Them so much and add. Them to your self - Guess
what...you'll start loving yourself more. See. The reason we don't love
ourselves is because we have traits that we don't like. Maybe you think that
you're lazy, maybe you think you're socially awkward, maybe you think you're
not someone that others can depend upon. If you're like me and you don't like.
These traits in other people.
But you have. Them in yourself.. Then of
course – you're not going to love yourself. Because you have so many traits
about yourself that you dislike. All you need to do is fix this ratio. Decrease.
The amount of traits that you dislike and increase. The amount of traits that
you like. If you look up to someone because of. Their bravery.. Then all you
have to do is start doing what you consider to be brave things like taking
risks, speaking up for yourself, or standing up for others and you'll start
loving yourself more. If you look up to someone because of how hardworking. They
are.. Then all you have to do is start doing what you consider to be hard work
like building habits, making progress in your projects, or hitting. The gym and
you'll start loving yourself more. If you look up to someone because. They’re
social butterfly..
Then all you have to do is start talking to
more people or try to have deeper conversations and you will start loving
yourself more. If you start incorporating. The traits of people you look up to
and like - you will start loving yourself more. It's that simple. So. The next
time you see a celebrity or friend that you admire, ask yourself this – what is
it about. Them that I like so much? And how can I add that trait to my own life
so that I can learn to love myself more? Now - if you're wondering what's. The hands
down best way to finding good traits to incorporate into your own life –. The
answer is by reading biographies. By listening to. The stories of some of. The
most successful people in. The world and adopting. Their traits. Which brings
us to. The sponsors of today’s video Audible. As much as I like reading books –
I actually prefer listening to audio books on Audible. Mainly because Audible
allows me to listen to books in places where I normally wouldn't be able to
read. Such as when I'm working out, when I'm commuting somewhere, or when I'm
doing my grocery shopping. The biography I'd suggest
you to check outs. The House That Jack Ma built. It tells. The story of. The
humble beginnings of Jack Ma –. The founder of one of. The biggest and most
successful companies in. The world- Alabama.. There are a ton of traits that I
admire about Jack, so I definitely recommend you to check it out so you can
adopt some of those traits as well.
