Give yourself permission to be proud of yourself. Being proud of yourself creates a sense of belonging within oneself to oneself. Putting in the work and sitting in the appreciation to yourself for the journey and achievement before moving onto the next one is something our society does not allow for us. The moment we finish one thing it’s on to the next. Taking a moment to be proud of yourself is not being egotistical, it’s an independent self reflection. The ego would rather sit in the dead end cycle because that is where the ego feels most comfortable. Being proud of yourself is empowering when doing soul work. Sitting in the feeling of your evolution. Honoring where you started and where you are now. Honoring yourself for being brave and courageous enough to sit in and walk through the darkness to reach the light. Be damn proud! YOU DID THAT!
