Hi, and welcome to the website. When you said "I know I have some awesome qualities, I am just having a very difficult to see". Obviously don't know you, but I have no doubt that you do have a lot of great qualities. You'll discover more of your qualities as your journey goes on. It's not all going to be smooth. Some days will still be extremely difficult, aggravating, and disheartening. But keep going. You deserve to be treated properly by others in life. Never Give Up! You may have to retreat. You may have to let something go for a while before you can try approaching it again, all while giving yourself time to heal over whatever you're working on.

Never Give Up.

ImaGlamma, we all have qualities that we like about ourselves if we are truly honest.

The problem may arise when others keep putting us down and saying negative things

to us. Once this happens, the subconscious mind clings onto those words and replays it

often enough until we finally start to believe it.

YouTube has some great Affirmations on believing in yourself that would help you through your journey forward. As "FindingTheAnswers" said, it will not always go smooth.

Life's journey will have detours and sometimes boulders in the road. But know that you always have choices. Where ever the road may take you, keep going forward. xx

Thank you. Today looks brighter! I need to learn about positive affirmations. I mean to actually believe them, lol.

[ImaGlamma in reply to Agora1]

My biggest worry about the positive affirmations, is that I can say them all I want. I just have to convince myself to believe them.
