30+ Quotes About Self-Love And Self-Worth
Quotes About Self-Love – I don’t know about you, but I sometimes need a bit of a pick-me-up, a reminder that I got this and that I’m enough. When I’m in this state of mind, I search for inspiration. And what better place to find it than some powerful speak-directly-to-your-soul kind of words of wisdom, in other words, a good quote!
I know many of us struggle with this concept of self-love. It often carries a negative connotation, and some associate it with selfishness. However, self-love is not that at all. Self-love is about knowing your worth.
We are often our worst critics, and I know that many of us would never treat those we care about in the same ways we treat ourselves. As these quotes will remind us, we cannot truly love others if we do not first love ourselves.
You are enough, you are worthy, you are YOU, and that is exactly what the world needs.
