Know Your Self

Do not rely completely on any other human being, however dear. We meet all of life’s greatest tests alone. So be nice to yourself once in a while. Don’t be too harsh on yourself. Forgive yourself when your efforts fall short. Accept yourself for who you are. Be contented, be comfortable with who you are.

People often say that this or that person has not yet found himself. But the self is not something one finds, it is something one creates. - Thomas Szasz

The self is not something ready-made, but something in continuous formation through choice of action. - John Dewey

Don’t sell yourself short. Conquer the crime of self-depreciation. Concentrate on your assets. You’re better than you think you are. - David. J. Schwartz

Self-compassion is simply giving the same kindness to ourselves that we would give to others. - Christopher Germer

Self-knowledge comes from knowing other men. - Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

This above all: to thine own self be true, And it must follow, as the night the day, Thou canst not then be false to any man. - William Shakespeare

Low self-confidence isn’t a life sentence. Self-confidence can be learned, practiced, and mastered – just like any other skill. Once you master it, everything in your life will change for the better. - Barrie Davenport

There is no more reason to accuse ourselves excessively of our failings than to excuse them overmuch. He who goes overboard in self-criticism often does so in order not to suffer others’ criticisms, or else does so out of a kind of vanity that wishes to make others believe that he knows how to confess his faults. - Magdeleine Sable

Accepting, allowing and interacting with your life as though it is exactly as it should be, without making yourself wrong (or right) for what you discover is the way to Self-Realization. - Arial Kane
