From The Home of Sasha Xarrian
This is the season when we either feel extremely loved or an incredible lack of love.
This can be a joyous season with those we love or it can be a time when we sit at home alone wishing we had more love in our lives.
We have been taught to rely on others for love, many times wanting a partner to save us by loving us.
We expect parents and family members to love us – and when their love feels insufficient, we can feel sorry for ourselves or angry.
Love is such an important aspect of our lives. It affects everything.
If someone shows us love, we feel instantly happy.
If the opposite happens, we feel hurt, angry or lonely.
I was raised to believe that you love others no matter what – “love thy neighbor as thyself.”
That didn’t always work.
It seems to me that most people feel like they should love and be kind to others but don’t realize that it is actually more important to love themselves first.
Loving yourself does not mean you have a big ego.
Loving yourself does not mean that you are not God-fearing.
Loving yourself is very often the missing ingredient in our lives.
Once we learn to effectively and consistently love ourselves, love begins to appear from everywhere.
We love ourselves by treasuring ourselves.
We love ourselves by treating ourselves like we would want our children to be treated.
We love ourselves by taking time for ourselves.
We love ourselves by rewarding ourselves.
We love ourselves by praising ourselves.
We love ourselves by telling ourselves (in the mirror – in the eye) everyday that we love and treasure ourselves.
We love ourselves by not allowing anyone to abuse us.
We love ourselves by being assertive.
We love ourselves by honoring ourselves many times throughout the day.
We love ourselves by taking time to nurture ourselves and not abandon ourselves.
If you are alone or lonely this holiday season, take a lot of time to deeply love yourself.
Buy yourself some presents.
Do something for yourself that you have never allowed yourself to do before – like going to a spa.
Every time you begin to feel sorry for yourself, count twenty things you are grateful for – then find twenty ways to show love to yourself.
Take time to treat yourself special this season. Make it a season that is all about you for a change.
This is the greatest gift you can give to those around you; it really is!
Loving ourselves is the first and most important step in creating love in our lives.
Why didn’t anyone ever tell us this?
In Love and Mastery,

As you know, every week in this “Mastery with Love” section of my newsletter, you receive empowering gifts from masters around the world. Masters who graciously share their discoveries, wisdom and teachings with all of us and…. Without asking us for a penny.
Well, with the Holiday season upon us, this weeks’ gift has a twist. This week, you have the opportunity to give the gift.
I have arranged something very special for you today. My friend Scott Martineau from ConsciousOne.com has created a “Happy Holidays” package only for Outrageous Mastery readers that I’m sure you’ll enjoy.
There are a lot of “masters” out there in various fields. Masters like T. Harv Eker, James Ray, Chris Howard, Marc Allen, and more, and today you are going to be able to pick which one you want to learn from. I’m excited to tell you about it because it represents high quality content that can make a difference in your life right now.
But that’s not all…
I’ve also arranged with Scott to give Outrageous Mastery readers the opportunity to give as a gift, to a friend or loved one, a completely free program from one of the masters above.
Is there someone in your life who’s looking to achieve mastery as well? Then check out what Scott and I have put together for you and let me know what you think. I’m confident you’ll love it.
