[00:04.13]Lesson 27
[00:06.15]1.2 Look at yourself in the mirror
[00:11.83]and ask yourself this question;
[00:14.95]"Do I like myself?"
[00:17.05]If the answer is "Yes," fine.
[00:20.45]If the answer is "No"
[00:22.75]then maybe you should read
[00:25.28]Chuck Rizzotto's book learning
[00:27.86]to love yourself Rizzotto is a doctor
[00:31.23]with over 25 years' experience
[00:34.57]helping people to feel better
[00:36.74]about themselves.Rizzotto.
[00:39.18]Dr.Rizzotto says"If you don't love yourself
[00:43.08]and have confidence in yourself,
[00:46.06]you will always have difficulty
[00:48.03]loving other people."
[00:50.87]He also says"Everyone has their strengths
[00:55.14]along with their weaknesses.
[00:57.46]You must accept both.
[00:59.79]What is more,we should never compare ourselves
[01:04.48]to others."
[01:06.29]We are all unique persons with unique characters
[01:11.12]That's what makes us so special."
[01:14.54]"We can all learn to love ourselves
[01:17.18]if we really want to,"says Dr.Rizzotto"
[01:21.14]"You can love yourself,
[01:23.50]but that doesn't mean you think only
[01:26.29]about yourself"
[01:28.14]It means you accept all the good
[01:30.61]and bad things inside you.
[01:33.17]That way,you can accept them in other people."
[01:40.01]2.3 Do you love yourself?
[01:44.19]Do you really?
[01:46.23]Ask yourself these questions and find out;
[01:51.40]Do you usually enjoy yourself on your birthday?
[01:55.74]On our birthdays we receive lots of attention
[01:59.90]and presents.
[02:01.82]If you don't really love yourself,
[02:04.08]this will probably make you feel bad
[02:07.01]and uncomfortable.
[02:09.47]Do you sometimes ask yourself,
[02:12.27]"Do my friends really like me?"
[02:14.88]It's natural to ask this question sometimes.
[02:18.36]But it you ask it a lot,
[02:20.07]it might be because you don't love yourself.
[02:23.09]When you learn to love yourself.
[02:24.98]your friends will like you,too.
[02:27.42]Do you sometimes say to youself,
[02:29.86]"I'm so stupid!
[02:31.97]We all say things like this to ourselves.
[02:35.09]It's a way of paying for doing something bad
[02:37.38]or wrong,
[02:38.68]but we don't have to pay for our mistakes.
[02:41.63]If we can learn to accept our mistakes
[02:44.39]without criticizing ourselves,
[02:46.75]we will learn to accept ourselves more.
[02:50.20]Do you take good care of yourself
[02:52.32]and your appearancne?
[02:53.86]If you don't care about your appearance,
[02:56.26]it might be because you don't love yourself.
[02:59.17]Caring too much about your appearance
[03:01.99]does not mean loving yourself,either.
[03:05.27]Do you talk about yourself a lot?
[03:07.77]It's good to talk about ourselves
[03:09.89]and our feelings,
[03:11.42]but if we don't take an interest
[03:13.34]in other people,
[03:14.24]it might be because
[03:15.30]we don't really care about anyone--
[03:17.71]including ourselves.
[03:20.06]Always try to love yourselves.
[03:22.60]If we can't love ourself,
[03:24.46]how can anyone else love us?
