How often do YOU, PARENT YOURSELF ??

We Humans are constantly evolving, and we need constant motivation to be a better person each and everyday. As a child we receive  a lot of support and constant teachings from Parents, Teachers, Coaches and Seniors. But, what about when we grow up and become an ADULT ?? From where are we going to receive all the motivation from?? 


There may be multiple options  of getting the required motivation we require constantly, throughout life. Be it through BOOKS, PODCASTS, MENTORS, MOVIES or GURUS, we constantly, try to learn something that we are not well aware or well versed with. Few smart people even tend to hire life coach or a permanent mentor from whom they constantly gain support and motivation. But, have you ever thought that YOU actually can PARENT yourself regularly throughout YOUR life. 




When we were kids, we were parented by our Parents or Grand-parents. Once we grow up, We master the ART of Parenting our kids.  As Humans , we are highly INTELLECTUAL and we can easily survive well, but just imagine how SYSTEMATIC and how DISCIPLINED your life was when you were a CHILD. It was because you had the GUIDANCE and support from your PARENTS. 


If YOU want a better, a happier, a comfortable and a successful life YOU gotta learn the ART of SELF-PARENTING !! Yes, try to be a PARENT to YOURSELF. No one understands YOU, better than YOU. No one knows YOUR STRUGGLES. No one can help in achieving YOUR AIMS & DESIRES in life. No one really can understand whats happening in YOUR MIND. Thus, start wearing THE cap of a PARENT to YOURSELF. 

Console YOURSELF when in pain and AGONY. Pamper yourself when you’re TIRED. Be easy on yourself when something goes CRAZY, just like your Parents would do, when you were a kid. Correct yourself when you are going on the WRONG PATH. Control yourself from ADDICTIONS, just like you would do to YOUR KIDS. Cheer for yourself when you WIN something BIG or SMALL . Reward or Treat yourself with lots of Love and Affection, just the way your parents and grandparents would do for YOU. 


Wipe your own Tears and Stand Bold again, and say to YOURSELF that it is not the end of the WORLD. Push yourself HARDER even if you don't like , just the way your tough DAD used to be. Control yourself from binge-spending or binge-eating or binge-watching Habits, for, you would never encourage YOUR CHILDREN to do those things. Eat Nutritious and Healthy food 🥘 just like  your MOM was constantly worried ONLY about your EATING HABITS. Pray to GOD or believe in a supreme power, just the way you were taught in childhood. 

Believe in YOURSELF and Love YOURSELF like your PARENTS did. Keep boasting about YOURSELF, just like your parents always did and are still doing, Keep saying to yourself , that YOU are the BEST and the cutest BEING in the WORLD, just the way your MOM FEELS.


Hope you all will start SELF-PARENTING yourself from today onwards. It's just the lack of EMPATHY and KINDNESS and GUIDANCE and  a SECURE feeling that we all are missing when we become ADULTS, and start playing in the real WORLD land create a MESS out of it.  By the time, we start realising, how could we have done better, most of our lifetime is gone. So, be GENEROUS and SUPPORTIVE  to YOURSELF,  even after you become a PARENT or even a GRANDPARENT.
