The Top 10 Quotes to Inspire You to Love Yourself First

Loving others is easy. Loving yourself is the hard part.... Or so we often think. But as many wise figures have remarked over the years, it's in fact only when you first learn to accept and cherish your own essence that you can find the peace of mind to be truly present for your loved ones -- and for your own life.

Self-love is not a luxury to be delayed or subordinated to the "real business" of going after your goals or caring for others. It's not for nothing that when you board a plane, the run-through of the emergency landing procedures always tell you to place your own mask on first. Caring for yourself is the foundation of your strength and stability, without which you are of no use to anyone. And it's the only thing will propel you forward on your journey and hold you steady when you inevitably stumble.


In order to be successful at anything in life, you need to first believe that you deserve to be.

Here are our Top 10 Quotes to Inspire You to Love Yourself... First!

Until you value yourself, you won’t value your time. Until you value your time, you will not do anything with it.

If that wasn’t enough, he carried the team through to yet another Super Bowl the very next year, though they ended up losing to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
