104. How to Like Yourself

I don’t work with a ton of people who explicitly say that they hate themselves, but when I get to the root of their thoughts and behaviors, they don’t treat themselves like someone they like. I do this too! We’re extremely critical of ourselves, we constantly judge ourselves for the millions of things we think we “should” be doing but aren’t, and by the end of the day we have no emotional capacity or bandwidth left to do anything but zone out with food, endless scrolling, Netflix, or all three. We think its useful to beat up on ourselves but these self-critical feelings aren’t conducive for change in any capacity. If we wan’t to improve our lives, we have to learn to like ourselves.
