When you have a bout of self-doubt, don’t make it worse by comparing yourself to others. Use your feelings as invitations to expand self-awareness. Your negative sentiments aren’t accurate. There’s nothing wrong with you. You aren’t flawed. No matter how misguided your past behavior seems in hindsight, if you could have done better, you would have. The choices you make reflect your state of consciousness in the moment. Trying to shame yourself into improvement doesn’t raise your consciousness…

Love and acceptance does.
