Being able to pat ourselves on the back is something most of us find hard to do. But we should.

Why I hear you say?

Well, it raises your self-esteem for one & why not I say to you? If this were a friend, the first thing we do is congratulate them. So why not ourselves? Didn’t we do just as good of a job? Don’t we deserve the praise? I know most people have been brought up with the idea that “self-praise is no praise”. Well. I say to that poppycock.

Self-praise if everything. It’s part of loving yourself and feeling good about yourself. So the next time you achieve something, even something small, congratulate yourself you deserve it!
