“We just need to be kinder to ourselves. If we treated ourselves as well as we treated our best friend, can you imagine?”
— Meghan Markle
Simplified Meaning:
We often treat our best friends with kindness, understanding, and support, but we can be very hard on ourselves. Imagine if you made a mistake at work - instead of beating yourself up about it, think about how you would comfort a friend who made the same mistake. You would probably tell them it’s okay, everyone messes up, and they can try again. If we gave ourselves this same kindness and forgiveness, we’d likely feel happier and less stressed. Being kind to yourself means being gentle with your thoughts, accepting your flaws, and encouraging yourself during tough times. This can help in building self-confidence and overall well-being.
