5 Self-Love & Inspirational Books That Changed My Outlook On Life
Everyone has a past, struggles, bruises and scars. One my biggest struggles of my past was overcoming low self-worth, depression, and anxiety. I would always put myself down. I would act as if the world was against me. If I was in a public setting I would shy away from any personal interaction. I guess you could have considered me a “loner”. I was someone who wanted to be alone at all times because I felt as if my presence wasn’t “good enough” or “wanted”. There was a point in my life where I even withdrew from my high school and became homeschooled because of my anxiety and depression. Even now I can still struggle with feeling as if I am “stuck” and unable to move forward.
I knew that if I continued living life the way I was, I could potentially become “stuck”. The only way I could get out of the mess that I felt like I was in, I had to make a change. I began looking for outlets through writing and reading. As I was working on shifting the way I was living, I came across a few self-love and inspirational books. These books had a major impact on my shift of confidence and positive attitude. I wanted to be happy. It’s important that I lived a life that I completely and utterly loved. I searched high and low for anything to make me feel the least bit better. After reading these books, I was able to find myself, find my hope, and find my passion.
