Divine Selfishness: Why You Need To Be More Selfish

Many of us have grown up with the idea that good girls and boys are not selfish. Cultures and society, as well as family traditions, have us placing the needs of others above our own needs. It is impossible to be happy unless you are able to value your own wants, needs, and desires. Learning to be divinely selfish implies that you are learning to love and value the self. Only when you are able to value you, can you ever become responsible enough to create true happiness in your life.

How true…. Thanks for sharing this life lesson..🙏🏻💙🪷

You don’t know how much I needed to hear that today thank you

Another wonderful talk. Thank you! 💕

Thank you for this wonderfully encouraging and insightful talk! I am so inspired by you and your courage each time I listen to you! I always find myself in such strong agreement with you and pray that is I dig deep enough within myself I’ll find the courage to be who I’m truly called to be. I know God has so much more planned for me! Even as I approach 50!! ☺️

Thank you for these thoughts and for sharing about your experiences. “Who are we if we’re not managing other people’s chaos?” “Good girls worry about everybody else before themselves. Good girls are not selfish. Good girls have no needs. Good girls tone themselves down for the sake of everybody else.” I have spent my life worrying how my asking for what I know I need will affect everyone else and trying to protect those who might be threatened by it. While I have no desire or intention to create difficulty for another, I can and I will ask for what I know I need and if that is difficult for someone, that cannot be my responsibility. Thank you so much.
