Some weeks I am top of the situation. I nail affirmations. Other times I avoid mirrors. Last week, I started a win jar to track my small victories like wearing shorts, etc. What keeps you going when motivation dips? Playlists? Friend chats? Spill your secrets!

I make sure to write down the things that people have said they liked about me. These make me feel good even on a bad day when I read them.

I treat myself the way I do my friends, being kind and caring to myself makes a big difference. This assisted me to keep moving in the journey of self-love and discovering myself.

To keep myself motivated in my self-love journey, I have a journal where I write my plans down, especially the things that I am proud of like my accomplishments or getting through a difficult moment.

I love this idea! We tend to forget just how much we accomplish, especially if we live a busy and stressful lifestyle. Writing those things down what we accomplish and looking back on them, can help you stay motivated.
