Self love involves taking care of yourself.
The Buddah says Practice Self-Compassion: You do not need to earn your worth through productivity or perfection. Recognize that your value is inherent, and you deserve peace, happiness, and kindness just as you are.
The stoics agree go into more detail
Stoics approach self-compassion not as emotional self-pity, but as rational self-kindness, replacing harsh self-judgment with objective reflection and understanding. It involves accepting human imperfection, focusing on what you can control, and correcting mistakes without attacking your character. This perspective promotes durable progress over perfectionism.
