you have to stop hating yourself for not taking care of yourself before you can start taking care of yourself in a more sustainable way
it took me so long to accept this but you need self-compassion like the number one thing you need to take care of yourself is self compassion especially when you fail. self compassion is not going to hurt you or make you complacent or less motivated. You have to forgive yourself for not being there yet before you can get there and also you have to accept that getting angry at yourself when you inevitably fail or mess up is not a good method of self discipline it’s not going to work in a way that means anything and you are not going to get anywhere with it you have to find a different method of self discipline that isn’t anger or harsh self criticism it has to be a seriously much kinder method it can’t be based on punishing yourself for your mistakes it’s not going to do you any good you have to be sooooo nice and kind to yourself that you feel STUPID!!!!You have to. you have to submit to self-compassion its sooo scary but you have to let it speak to you it loves you so much and it wants everything that you want for yourself and it’s going to help you .
