The Foundation of Blissful Living is Self-acceptance

Quiet moments give me an opportunity to consider my value. I spend time each day acknowledging the wonderful things about me. Ongoing self-acceptance is the key to blissful living. 

Life is filled with situations that cause me to question my worth. Although these situations are sometimes discouraging, I remain focused on how well I handle them. 

I realize that life is less about what happens to me and more about how I apply my talents to fix the matter. I refrain from blaming myself for things that happen when external factors are at fault. 

When I stop to consider my successes, I am reminded of how capable I am. I avoid allowing a few unfortunate circumstances to dampen my spirit and self-esteem. 

I am happier when I accept my flaws. My imperfections are what make me unique. I celebrate the fact that I am the only person on Earth who is just like me. Highlighting my differences gives me confidence and encourages self-love. 

Although I desire to be better off financially, I am thankful for what I currently have. I am more fortunate than many others and I remind myself of that regularly. 

Today, I believe that achieving ongoing self-acceptance is a worthwhile feat. I am courageous about defending who I am. I know that my appearance and abilities make me a unique contributor to life on Earth.
