Looking for Love? Stop! Here’s Why & How to Focus on Being Your Best Self First Relationships

Many of us are looking for love but having a tough time finding it. What I’ve learned is that if you want to attract a healthy relationship, you have to focus on yourself first. You have to love yourself before you can truly love anyone else. 

Before you can be in a healthy relationship, you need to figure out what's going on inside you that's making you fall into bad relationships. Find yourself in relationships with toxic people? Stop and put yourself first. Work on yourself, heal yourself and fix your own toxic traits before you do anything else. Love will come to you naturally; there is no need to rush.

No one can fully love you unless you are 100 percent healthy and 100 percent love yourself fully. Be fully committed to yourself on a physical and spiritual level. That means focusing on loving yourself instead of looking for love from others. Focus on growing as a person and figuring yourself out. By loving yourself, you'll naturally attract the beautiful love you’re looking for.

Try not to obsess over it. The more you worry about finding love, the more unhealthy you’ll become. I feel that the best and most important people come into our lives when we least expect it. Stop stressing and give all your energy to yourself instead. 

To manifest love, always have good intentions and just do you. Here are my suggestions for being your best self:

• Meditate.
• Go outside.
• Enjoy nature.
• Explore the world.
• Cook.
• Clean.
• Practice self-care.
• Have different kinds of friends. 
• Have empathy for yourself and others.
• Expand your mind.
• Fight for knowledge.
• Accept the truth.
• Explore new places, new people and new things.
• Take time to reflect on successes and failures.
• Use mistakes as lessons for you to grow and be better and stronger and wiser.
• Take each opportunity to advance to the next level so you keep moving forward.

By doing these things, you'll feel the confidence of knowing and loving yourself; your authentic self to show the world who you are. And remember, good things come to those who wait. Be patient. It’ll happen when you least expect it, and by loving yourself first, you’ll be ready when it arrives.
