Sorry for the delay y’all, we had an internet issue.
What is a compliment that you struggle to accept about yourself?
Compliments… Everyone I know has struggled at some point in their life with compliments. Even if you say you do not like compliments, to me that means you are not accepting enough of the compliments you receive.
A compliment I struggle with is being told what a good mom I am. I know that I am a good mother, but I always feel like I am making mistakes (as all parents do). I will be there tired, run down, completely feeling like the days been lost and chaotic. Out of nowhere, my boys will be snuggled up to me telling me how they had the best day ever and how they love me. Another time, I think “gosh, I wish they would stop fighting and just get along” and someone will come up to me telling me how polite and awesome my kids are.
My second compliment I struggle with is being told I am beautiful. People are very hard on themselves, we are our own worst critic. This is really a shame given that confidence is what makes you shine and makes you have that extra oomph. Over the years, I have started to try to look at myself in a different light. I have allowed people to make me feel like I am not beautiful because I look different, but this could not be further from the truth. I am a very beautiful woman.
What is a compliment you struggle with? How are you taking steps to accept that compliment?
