If you are one of those who neglect their own personality and never think about their happiness then you need to read it thoroughly.
The first thing you should learn is that you are an individual with a distinctive personality.You don't need to identify yourself with XYZ because you have your own uniqueness.You must not compare yourself with any other person whether in terms of success or failure.You are your own competitor.You have your own demons and own goodness.
When you accept your distinguished personality then you start realizing your desires and preferences.You are not sent to this world just to satisfy the society and to keep yourself in dismal mood all the time.You were not born to stay frustrated and depressed for the sake of others. In your preference list you should be number one.Being on the top doesn't infer that it's a lesson to be selfish.Not at all !
Selfishness and 'Self love' both must not be intermingled. To me selfishness means 'just think about yourself in terms of benefits' while self love means 'Learn to give importance to your own self and don't let yourself down in any way.' It doesn't mean to let others down or to look down upon others. Neither it denotes narcissism nor superiority complex. It's just a simple notion to consider your self of some value and recognize worth of your individuality.
When you realize your worth and start loving yourself, you enter the realm of confidence and optimism .You embrace your peculiarity and explore your talents.You start believing in your strengths and accept your weaknesses equally.You take care of your mental,physical and emotional health.You become in charge of yourself :you have to praise your efforts and constantly get feed back from your mind to see better version of yourself.Your self-esteem must reach to an extent that no body could ever harm it.
Wake up ! It's better late than never.Say this to yourself now,
'I'm beautiful and this is what my creator has declared.
I'm strong and I believe in hope.
I'll fight with the evil inside me to keep my goodness alive.'
