Hatred towards oneself should be the motivation to change. You change for yourself because you want to become more beautiful. It is because you realize your own flaws and want to live your life at the very best standards. It is not for anyone else. It is not for the praises you want to hear.
Hating oneself should only be temporary. It is a time when we dig deeper into what we want to become instead of planning how to ruin ourselves with knives and starvation. It is a time when we realize we haven't reached our limit yet and the idols we admire can someday be us if we just put our minds to it.
Maybe right now is that moment when self-realization kicks in. I have not been living my best life when the dresses are too tight or my brain lacks pretty knowledge. And though I hate the numbers on the weight scale, I learn to forgive and to love.
The days will never get better if you don't start and make a change. The clouds will cover the sky with an ugly grey if you stay in this place forever. Stand up, pat yourself on the back, and make the decision to move forward.
If you keep making excuses, when will you ever change? Life is short. Don't live your life full of regrets.
