I'VE GOT A CRUSHH. IT'S ABOUT TO GET REEAL SERIOUS. I THINK I'M IN LOOVE.
You know how people say "To love someone else, you must first love yourself"? Well, it turns out they are right! If you're looking for a catch, you've got to be a catch. You have to believe it. There's a glow, a certain aura, that people give off when they are in love or loving what they are doing, and people can't help but find it irresistibly attractive. Fall in love with yourself, and you may be surprised to find great things and great people start to gravitate towards you. It's time stop searching out there for your perfect match, and put all that energy back towards yourself. Foster that self-love and self-worth that we so often downplay, ignore or deny. Too often, people settle for what they think they deserve. Do yourself a favor: raise your self-esteem, your standards and your expectations. Today. For a change, try treating yourself the way you would expect your ideal partner to treat you. In other words, date yourself! Compliment yourself, treat yourself, wine and dine yourself, impress yourself. Go out of your way to make you smile. We have an endless supply of love, so toss some of it to the one person that will always be there: you.

#17 RULE OF ME-LOVE

Beware comfort food

It is not uncommon to over-eat (or under-eat) when feeling lonely, bored and/or depressed. For some people (myself included), food is used as a comfort, because you are happy, if only for the moment, when you are eating. We are often trying to fill an emptiness that we feel within. Temporary "fullness" quickly turns into feeling poorly about ourselves, and more empty than before. Become aware of these habits. As much as possible, try to fill your spirit with things other than food - things that make you feel whole and complete in the long term. Of course, there is nothing wrong with treating yourself to a little soul food now and then. If you are going to splurge, make sure you indulge with guilt-free enthusiasm.
