And your actions produce your life.” “You can’t hate yourself to love… you cant drive yourself with anxiety, fear, and rejection and expect to experience positive emotion when you get to the goal. You have to love yourself NOW.” “You always have to deal with the self-judgement first. If you’re judging your own thoughts, you have to deal with that first.”   Resources: Hey girl, have you joined our email list yet? Subscribe now!
