So it's been a very long time since I did a blog homework set by @missy @rambo and @lyxzen 💕
Over the last year itself I've changed immensely and learnt so much. So over the last five years I've changed massively.
If I could go back to 5 years ago and tell myself five things they would be;
Number one;
LOVE YOURSELF.
I know this may sound simple but if I could go back and explain to myself how I can't change some things and to just learn to accept and love who I am I feel like I would've learnt self love a long time ago.
I've had so many issues about this this and that on my body and now I realise how silly all that is.
Number two.
BE KIND BUT PUT YOURSELF FIRST
I had a problem with putting everyone first. I just would do everything I can to suit the other person. This obviously had massively effects on me later on which I've now almost come through. If I could tell myself to be the kind hearted person I am but not to let people take advantage of that and me end up at a loss. I've come so far with this and I'm massively proud.
Number three.
APPRECIATION FOR THE SMALLEST THING.
I'll admit looking back I could've been a brat here and there and not appreciate what I have and instead I've always been looking at what I haven't got and what's next. If I could go back and shake old me and say look around and appreciate it - I sure would. I'm so glad I had this realisation and my life's improved heaps since I've learnt to appreciate everything from a drink of water to a holiday away.
Number four.
NOT EVERYONE WILL LIKE, ACCEPT OR BE NICE TO YOU AND THATS OKAY!
I used to over think everything and if someone didn't accept or like me I would heavily blame myself. I would resent myself. Then through this rejection I started to push people away through fear of not being accepted. I still struggle with this a little but it's the thing I'm working on most. I've come very far with it and have stopped playing pushing people away just still have a doubt here and there about myself but I've learnt how to manage it and hopefully it'll fade away eventually.
number five.
YOUR BEAUTIFUL INSIDE AND OUT.
I used to legit hate who I was, outside inside. I didn't like myself, and truly believed I was a blip in the world. Until the past year or so I know see my traits good and bad, and I know I am a beautiful person inside and out.
Sooo, there's the five things I would've told myself. What would you have told yourself 5 years ago?
Enjoy,
Lots of love,
