Know Thyself: The Secret to Self-Love and Empowerment!
Know-thyself-heal-thyself Bonus Prompt: What is the theme of my journey this month?
Hello, Family
I had to take a break for my mental health
Being an international Ph.D. student could have a toll on your mental health
And as we know, your mind affects all — relationship, academic performance, career choices, quality of life, etc
So taking time to know yourself, and discover you are paramount
My theme for this month will be on self-love and empowering yourself to a more informed and better decision for you
You have to create time to show yourself some love
Show yourself the same kindness you do others
Sometimes, make excuses for your limitations within reasons
Don’t aim for perfectionism……aim for empowerment!
With each day, you learn more about you
And become self-aware
Take time to celebrate you…. no one else will
Knowledge can be acquired by a suitable and complete study, no matter what the starting point is. Only one must know how to ‘learn’. What is nearest to us is man, and you are the nearest of all men to yourself. Begin with the study of yourself; remember the saying “Know thyself”
