Hello, #selflovechallengeday21! Let's talk about comparing and a bit of envy. Have you ever done any of these?
Do you compare yourself to those around you?
Do you see others on social media and feel envious that your life isn't like theirs?
Do you believe that other people don't seem to ever struggle?
You are not alone if you have ever felt this way! Remind yourself that someone's fabulous looking life may have secrets that they don't share.
You rarely see or hear about the less than perfect things in someone's life. 
This chatter from your mind can convince you that you will never measure up, you may feel that you won't get ahead. These thoughts steal your energy and make it hard for you to see good things happening around you. 
It can take time to see the bright side when life is challenging. Start focusing on the good things that you have going for you. If you have been working on improving yourself remember how far you have come! Here a few ideas to use as a reminder:
I have a job.
I am in great physical health!
I have someone that loves me.
This list can go on and on! It's gratitude that can really give you a positive perspective!
What does this have to do with self-love? Lots! Being critical of your appearance or doing that comparison shows where you may need a little love yourself.
Jealousy or envy can be a sign of low self-esteem/worth and insecurity.
So, today focus on flipping the switch and being the wonderfully "unique" you!
