In our daily lives, we encounter thousands of feelings, people, slights and situations that make us uncomfortable. Identifying them and knowing which ones we can do something about and which ones we can't is crucial to answering nagging questions such as: Why am I being so sensitive? Why am I always on the defensive? Why do I feel anxious? What exactly is going on with me? That's why, dear friend, we need to talk. Let's take a moment to get to know each other, correct our misperceptions, accept and forgive and, most of all, say good riddance to the things we need to get rid of. Let's see if we can start loving each other the way we deserve to be loved. It's about time.

Amor propio también es trabajar en uno mismo para conseguir actuar de una forma que te haga sentir orgulloso de la persona que eres. Imagínate que pudieras elaborar un manual de cómo quieres ser y de cómo quieres que sea tu relación con los demás. ¿Qué pedirías? Cuando te enojas o sientes emociones que te dificultan actuar racionalmente, reaccionas de manera impulsiva: pierdes los estribos, tomas malas decisiones o dices cosas de las que luego te arrepientes. Sin embargo, hay que parar a veces y preguntarse: «¿Qué haría ahora la persona que quiero ser?».   Intentar comportarte acorde con tus valores es una forma de amor propio, pero para conseguirlo es imprescindible conocerte, saber quién quieres ser y actuar de forma consciente.   Al fin y al cabo, la persona que mejor te tiene que caer en este mundo eres tú.ENGLISH DESCRIPTIONSelf-love also means working on oneself to act in a way that makes you feel proud of the person you are. Imagine that you could create a manual of how you would like to be and how you’d want your relationship with others to be. What would you ask for?   When you get angry or have feelings that make it difficult for you to act rationally, you react impulsively: you lose your temper, make bad decisions, or say things you later regret. However, sometimes you have to stop and ask yourself, 'What would the person I want to be do in this situation?'   Trying to behave in alignment with your values is a form of self-love, but to achieve this, it is important to know yourself, know who you want to be, and act consciously towards that.   After all, the person you have to like the most in this world is yourself.
