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.

#32 RULE OF ME-LOVE

Figure out exactly what it is that is good for your soul

A couple of months ago I found myself waking up on a houseboat in one of the most beautiful places in the world, Shuswap, British Columbia. I would read, make some deliciously healthy and simple food, listen to country and classic rock, have naps, soak in the hot tub, sit by the campfire, gaze at the stars. 

Afterwards, I was talking to a friend and I mentioned how great my vacation was, that I felt refreshed and it must have been good for my soul. He wasn't an outdoorsy kind of person so I asked him, well what would be good for your soul then?

He told me: That is a really good fucking question. I hadn't really thought about it. I'll have to get back to you on that one.

About a week later, I got a text from him. He said "To answer your question. Slowing down. And finding somebody to share my life with.

So ask yourself.. What would be good for my soul? It is a really good fucking question.
