Why "Accepting Yourself" Will Destroy You

Did you know that 85% of the world's population are affected by low self esteem.
The answer to this is often advice like "accept yourself" or "like yourself".
As a matter of fact, even mainstream media pushes the whole "acceptance" thing on us on a daily basis.

While they are good recommendations, the concept of acceptance is completely twisted in most people's minds.

Accepting or liking yourself is not about standing in front of the mirror and saying "I like myself" nor is it trying to love yourself as you are - without making any changes.
Here's The Brutal Truth:
It's only possible to accept the things that absolutely cannot be changed.
It's a crucial point for you.

Most people get acceptance wrong by trying to accept things that CAN be changed.
That leads them to stay sad and depressed for the rest of their life.

When I was a teenager, I was a very terrible stutterer.
It made me very sad and my mother would tell me to just "accept myself" the way I was.
I tried it for a while but found it very hard to try to convince myself that I should accept myself. (Remember, you can't lie to your subconscious mind…)

So when I decided to invest in a speech therapy program, I sent clear signals to my subconscious mind that I was taking ACTION to make changes.
I instantly felt better about myself and liked myself more.
That's the way it works.

Real honest acceptance requires work and effort.
It's only when you make real effort to change the things that you don't like in your life that self-acceptance and self-love shows up.

Take action, get small results, become happier about yourself.

Have an amazing day!

KILLER OPPORTUNITY OF THE CENTURY Imagine it's 1976 and you're outside, going for a walk in your neighbourhood. As you walk, you pass the neighbour's house whose garage is open... Inside, they're tinkering with computers - and you greet them... "Hey Steve!" -  you say... and behind them is a handwritten sign that reads "Apple Computers"... Knowing what you do now, would you walk past them - or instead try to get involved with their company? Cryptocurrency is a similar story. Once "just a fad" - the cryptocurrency industry currently sits at a market cap of over 1 trillion dollars! ...and today, over 300 million people own crypto. Over the next few years, I'd guess that billions will own crypto - and it is still very much in its infancy. So, after hearing that story about Apple, do you... A) Walk past this enormous opportunity (and perhaps regret it later)... OR... B) Get involved now - before it's too late...? Listen... if you don...

Common Sense Secret Of High Achievers

There is one thing people lack in life that prevents them from reaching their goals. It's called having a mentor. People who have mentors reach their goals more often than people who don't. Here's 4 reasons you need a mentor: A mentor will.. 1. Hold you accountable, even when you run out of motivation 2. Make you productive, even when you feel like you're not making progress 3. Stay positive, even when you're surrounded by negativity 4. Keep you focused, even when you have a lot going on. I didn't think of mentors as important to my success in life until I realized that virtually everyone I've been looking up to as role model still undergo one form of mentorship or the other. In other words, highly successful people still have mentors. To be honest, finding a mentor isn't easy. Most mentors these days are too busy with personal projects to make themselves available. But there's good news. The internet has made it possibl...
