"What you choose to see in others is a reflection of yourself. My favourite thing about myself is that I do my best to see the good in everyone. Even though I've been burned and betrayed I still try to have a big heart. I'll always be there for someone who needs a helping hand. Sometimes it's so easy to pick bad things out about other people because they're the flaws we see within ourselves. I think that everyone is inherently good, but some people make bad choices and I make a conscious effort to see the good while acknowledging the bad."

"One quality I love about myself is my capacity of enthusiasm/sergeancy (Honestly I don‘t know which word better suits) and according to that the way I can tell stories. Being excited about something or someone and infecting others with my enthusiasm is one thing I really love to do."
Hamburg, Germany
Williamijn Der Neut
"I laugh a lot, I smile a lot and guess what? I cry a lot too. But what I love about me is my ability to still feel I’m a strong woman even if and when I cry.
Being an artist and being part of the music industry forces me to take a lot of rejection and opinions but despite and also because of it I learned to love myself for who I am and not to care too much about what other people think of me. Don’t get me wrong, I will sometimes. I’m only human. But I took control of what the negativity towards me makes me feel like and I chose and choose not to let it take control over me. Now I can cry without feeling weak, cause I have the power to turn those tears into a smile.”

"Self-love? What the hell does that mean? Self-love to me means loving myself while being partially hungover after a night with my most favourite people standing on a frozen lake having my photo taken by a fierce female photographer finding beauty in everything and everyone she sees. Self-love has not been an easy road for me. I’ve been a 6 foot female for as long as I can remember, been called every name in the book by other women but that 6 foot Viking frame has given me so much, sports advantage, a stunning body that I happen to love looking at in the mirror, and being a part of an exclusive “tall girl club”, etc... Self-love means loving my career in a male dominated environmental industry, pushing to have my voice heard and presence known in an industry that doesn’t make it very easy. Self-love is me."

"As I reflect on this question, it really got me thinking about myself and how I should work on self-love. This simple caption took me a long time to write and it just shows how in the midst of being busy with life, we forget to take care of the most important people in our lives: ourselves. The quality that makes me the proudest is my resilience, my ability to bounce back from difficult situations, no matter how challenging they can be. Over a year ago I read a book that made me get my favorite tattoo: amor fati (love of fate) which is a Latin phrase that is used to describe an attitude in that one sees everything that happens in their lives including suffering and loss, as good and necessary. The idea that every experience we go through, good or bad, is part of our own individual fates and overall makes us who we are helps me focus on the beauty of it all. In the end, we should all love the good and the bad, because everything that happens in your life will teach you something important."

Alexander Zachariah
"One quality I love about myself is a genuine interest in other people's success. In fact, the only measure of success I care about in my own life is how successful I can make other people. I run a mentorship program and if there is one thing I can enstill in them is to be invested in other people's success and ask for nothing in return other than having the people you've helped go on to give their time, experience, or knowledge to three other people. If we could all think globally and act locally in this way the future looks bright and shiny!"

Luca Behring
“One quality I am proud of is the my confidence in being myself around other people. I genuinely enjoy talking to new people and making new friends, but it is very important to me that my friends accept me for who I am and not someone I would have to pretend to be. I don't put up an act because I take pride in who I am as a person. I have learned to deal with rejection and to appreciate acceptance. I love who i am even though i know that I still have a long way to go. I deeply enjoy what i have and can do, and will only continue onwards from here. I love living my life and the people who i can call my friends and I will always be humbled by the opportunities given to me. That keeps me grounded as well as motivated.”

Caity Bonneau
"I love my resilience. I love that I can face pretty much anything and somehow even though it should break me, and some days it feels like it will, it doesn’t. How the hard days, weeks, years haven’t stripped away my compassion, or made me hard. I think that people often see my softness as a weakness, something that makes me vulnerable. I see me being kind and compassionate as my strength. That I haven’t let the hard times break who I want to be as a person."

Kelli Ann McKim
"I connect with people. 'Self-Love. At 54 years of age, I think I finally understand what Self Love means to me. Self Love is not selfish; Self Love is about self care; Self Love is intuitively knowing that you do not need validation from others with respect to your worthiness – you already are worthy; Self Love is knowing that you are never alone, because you have you; Self Love is about nurturing yourself and fostering your personal growth and development; Self Love is peaceful, reflective, calm and beautiful…'

"The one quality I love about myself is: I love my personality, it’s taken a long time for me to get to this point but I can wholeheartedly say that I love who I am. In the famous words of RuPaul: 'If you can’t love yourself, how in the hell you gonna love somebody else?' -RuPaul

"’You're always happy.’ That's what people keep saying to me and that's what I love about myself. I have bad days, yes. I'm worrying about a lot, definitely yes. But that's life... Sometimes it sucks.
But nothing can take away the happiness I have inside of me, the happiness that helps me to surround myself with nice people, to connect with them on a deeper level and maybe to make them happier, too."

"Imperfection. Letting someone tell you to change or be a certain was may only apply to what they feel is what someone should look like. No one should tell you how to dress, what to say or how to act! Always be yourself and show the real you in the way you feel comfortable. To be the real you takes more courage and strength than changing to what someone else thinks you should be like so embrace your imperfections as I have done throughout my life. Don’t change to suit others but show the you who is great and wonderful and an empowering individual as I have through my years of realizing I am who I am for a reason and will not change to suit others but will become me by embracing those imperfections that others see as a flaw. Perfection doesn’t exist so don’t let someone tell you what perfect is! Be you and never change!"

Lexi Ernst
"The one thing I love the most about myself is that I’m not afraid to be myself. It all started when I met my boyfriend, I promised myself I would be 100% completely myself around him from the beginning and it turned out he loved me for who I was, flaws and all. This is when I started to love myself more and realize how beautiful I am inside and out. I don’t care who judges me, all of that use to bother me but now I don’t seem to care. I dress how I want and act the way I act whether I’ve known you for years or 5 minutes. I am not afraid to speak my mind and I feel as if I express myself in the way I present myself to others. I love meeting new people and getting to know people for who they truly are. The other thing I love about myself is how blunt I am, I am very straight forward with people and I don’t beat around the bush. I feel as if my whole life I have been quiet and dealt with stuff secretly. At this present moment if something bothers me I speak my mind and confront the person or thing that is bothering me. I’m not afraid to speak my mind and tell it how it is."
Simcoe, ON, Canada

"What do I love about myself? This question was surprisingly difficult to answer, which shows me I have a lot of work to do in the self-love department. But one thing that comes to mind is that I love my sense of humour. Not only does it make my life so much better, it helps to ease tension and encourage more “lightness” in myself and others. I think many people would think I was a much more serious person than I am. And this is where humour plays another role: I know how aligned and supported I feel with others when I let that humour come through. It’s like a barometer for my comfort level.
This tells me a few things. One, I should question why I shrink around certain people. Why can’t I be my authentic self, no matter who I am with? And two, perhaps when my humour flatlines I can use that as a tool to determine who I want to be spending time with and where to put my energy. As a mother, I’m focusing on spending my time with people who add more “buoyancy” to my life so that I’m not drained of precious energy I want to be putting into my family. So laughter is the best medicine, but it’s also a good gauge of how we feel amongst others and what we need to do to remain authentic."

"Can you take a photo of my hands? I take pride in my hands. I pride myself on the robustness of my hands. They're my source of income through work because I'm actually a plus size hand model for a lot of adds you would see walking around. A more recent one is of me holding a burger."

"The quality I like about myself: I don't give up easily when things go wrong, as they inevitably do in life. I get this from my Mum, who insists there's a way to work everything out and refuses to give anyone a pity party."

“With every day, every new experience, every new encounter we learn more about ourselves. Learning to become “myself” has been a long time and still ongoing journey. One thing I can proudly say about myself today is that I truly care about the people around me. Being a nurse I believe that life takes you so much further when you are empathetic, kind and loving. I am proud that I can call the qualities mine and I like to share them on everyday in my life. I believe in karma and I think love and care will always be returned in one way, once day. Keep sharing the love and happiness everyone!

Skylar Urshel-Hall
"My favourite part about myself is my empathetic nature. Although at times this trait makes me vulnerable to additional tears and emotional stress, I would not change this for the world. I love this part about myself as it allows me to truly connect, understand and support those around me. It also provides me the opportunity to regularly self-reflect and self-improve. I believe that this attribute is truly what makes me who I am and makes me a loving and supportive friend, daughter and partner."
