The person in life that you will always be with the most, is yourself. Because even when you are with others, you are still with yourself, too! When you wake up in the morning, you are with yourself, laying in bed at night you are with yourself, walking down the street in the sunlight you are with yourself.What kind of person do you want to walk down the street with? What kind of person do you want to wake up in the morning with? What kind of person do you want to see at the end of the day before you fall asleep? Because that person is yourself, and it's your responsibility to be that person you want to be with.

Quote:   "When you learn to say yes to yourself, you will be able to say no to others, with love." In a world that often pushes us to please others, meet expectations, and avoid conflict, learning to say yes to ourselves can feel selfish — even wrong. But true self-respect begins when we honor our own needs, time, and energy. This powerful quote reminds us that self-love and self-approval are not acts of defiance — they are acts of strength. What It Means to Say Yes to Yourself Saying "yes" to yourself is about acknowledging your worth. It's about recognizing your emotional needs, your limits, and your dreams. It means giving yourself permission to rest, to say no, to follow your passions, and to take care of your mental and physical health. When you begin to do this consistently, something shifts. You're no longer driven by guilt or the fear of disappointing others. Instead, your choices begin to align with your values — and this creates peace within....
