Week Sixteen - Self Acceptance

Living in a state of self-acceptance is a peaceful place to be. I know from much previous experience what it is like to not feel that much of myself was acceptable. I was pretty ok with my smile and I thought I must be fairly intelligent although I never seemed to make much of a success of anything and a pretty good mom.

Today, after many years of work on myself, I pretty much 'can do no wrong'. That does not mean I don't make mistakes or need to accept responsibility for them. It means that when I make them, I don't beat myself up or do other harm to me or anyone else. I accept. I learn. I move on.

Scary topic for many. Not so for others. 
  • How do you come by self-acceptance? 
  • What about yourself do you find unacceptable? 
  • What are you motivated to change? 
  • How might you do it?
