WHY LOVING YOURSELF IS NOT EGO

I got a comment the other day saying, โฃ

At first, I was like โ€˜shit, thatโ€™s not a good thing to projectโ€ฆโ€™โฃ
โฃ
But then I thought about this a little deeperโฃ

โฃ
And I am not being critical of thatโฃ
โฃ
I speak to so many blokes whose self-worth has been destroyed โฃ
โฃ
Who have reached rock bottom and want to turn it aroundโฃ
โฃ
They want to look at themselves in the mirror and feel good againโ€ฆโฃ

I can remember back to a time that I put on a bit of a frontโฃ
โฃ
But in truth, it was a protective shield for that fact that I felt very self-conscious in certain crowdsโฃ
โฃ
And thatโ€™s because I didnโ€™t know myself that wellโฃ

โฃ
I know what I am capable ofโฃ
โฃ
I know the impact I can makeโฃ
โฃ
And I know the love I bring every day to my tribeโฃ

โฃ
Because it allows me to be a better dad, a better partner, a better friend and a better coachโฃ
โฃ
When you have love for yourself, โฃ
โฃ
You are free to go and live by your purposeโฃ
โฃ
If you live without self-love, โฃ
โฃ
You can be sure that your view of the world will be jaded, โฃ
โฃ
And itโ€™s not because of the worldโฃ
โฃ
Itโ€™s because how you view yourselfโ€ฆ
