- Lastly, what are some IDEAS you’ve been having, of changes you could make in your life around this tip – however small?

The 12 Ways to be Fiercely Kind with yourself:

Be BOLD: live your life your way!
Remember: your flaws give you style and personality!
Ask yourself daily – What do I need to thrive today?
Your feelings are signals. Listen to them, always!
Remember: rejection proves you’re doing something courageous!
Forgive yourself. Period.
Say “No” when you need to: Life is too short to should on yourself.
Do less and take your time. Because rushing makes everyone miserable.
Stop tolerating – it’s not noble to allow things to drain you.
Gather a spark team of people who think you’re awesome!
Stop worrying what others think. Instead ask, “What do I think?”
Stand up for yourself. If not you, then who will?
