Being a friend to yourself is as important as anything you will ever do. Things will instantly begin to improve for you. And the better friend you are to yourself, the better friend you will be to others. All in all, the end result of being good to yourself is more inner peace, self esteem and overall happiness.
Think of yourself as a friend. No one deserves to be treated with love and respect more than you do. In order to understand the concept of being a friend to yourself, think about how you act with your very best friend and then make a conscious effort to be that way with yourself. Be supportive, understanding, lighthearted and most important, when you make a mistake, be forgiving.
Remember that self esteem and being your own best friend are not the same as arrogance or selfishness. You know when you are being selfish, and you know when you are just taking care of yourself. Taking care of yourself feels good, whereas being selfish does not. The same is true with confidence. A confident person has no need to put others down. In fact, it is the confidence, self assured person who is supportive of others and wants them to succeed.
Kimberly Kirbeger from the book of Chicken Soup For The Soul.
