Enoying my own company - an excerpt from my new book (in production)
<html>
<p><img src="https://s26.postimg.org/8m9jc1fi1/morning-2257689_960_720.jpg" width="960" height="640"/></p>
<p>I was always a super clingy young man. My first memory of clinging on to people for dear life was when I was about seven years old and my friend was out seeing his gran and grandad. I waited outside of his house the entire time. I think I waited for four hours; as you've probably guessed by now I had abandonment issues. I've never enjoyed being alone until recently, recently being in the last 10 years. I've always been one for sucking out the life of my friends through their noses. Even now I must watch myself when I enjoy being in the company of another that I don't start dominating their time. I do still have tendencies.</p>
<h1>Journey to inner peace</h1>
<p>I equivalate enjoying my own company with finding my inner peace. It's a version of finding the harmony within oneself. Someone told me once that I am only ever going to be with myself 100% of the time when I'm on this earth so isn't it responsible and sensible that I look after myself? I should be my own best friend. I could see what he was saying back then but how can one do so when all I could think of was how much of a bad person I was? I've never really liked myself. I mean I looked stupid, did stupid things and people were often laughing at me. There's nothing to really like.</p>
<p>Finding a friendship circle that was empowering helped a great deal. I was no longer fending off the insults or explaining myself like a five-year-old child. I think an important part of progression is understanding that we are all flawed. I was always one for trying to make everything perfect when it completely wasn't. Trying to find the diamond in the rough from everything when sometimes it just is rough. Sometimes that's fine, you know? I am one messy damn individual. It drives my wife insane. Literally bonkers. Yet we have both accepted that I am untidy and this is part of my flaws. That doesn't mean that I can't give being tidier a try. It just means we have accepted this is me and are looking at ways to better this. Accepting my flaws were the first step.</p>
<h1>Accepting my flaws</h1>
<p>For me, accepting my flaws was the biggest step. Realising that I wasn't perfect and that no matter how hard that I tried I would never be able to perfect myself. It helped me to relax a lot more. It helped me be comfortable in how I was; that, sometimes I'm going to fuck up. Like everyone else and their dog. My mentor and my friends were always saying that I had a wealth of experience to give the world but I couldn't see it. I just couldn't. I was a no-one with a previous alcohol and drug addiction and nothing else. What? I kitchen ported for a few hotels. What can I give from that? Did a bit of admin for the government? Come on, I was no Cambridge University Student.</p>
<h1>Need support</h1>
<p>That's why I say you need someone else supporting you. When I found myself lost in the wilderness I needed someone flying high over the fog to point me in the right direction. People that had been there before, people that had walked my walk, people that could see the shine in me that I just couldn't. No-one can see their own shine in the beginning. It's something that needs to be observed in my opinion; an objective view is a good eye for finding the awesome in people.</p>
<p>Turns out I was a fantastic mentor. Later I found myself as an amazing diplomat and progressive manager. Whoever told me that I had a lot to give the world was right, SO right. Couldn't have been more right. I also feel there's more to come out of my amazing, more to learn, more to achieve, more to teach, more to reach.</p>
<h1>Finding a new me</h1>
<p>Accepting my own company came with the final realisation that I didn't need other people to make me happy. I was already super proud of myself with all the new achievements I had made. By now I had won several community awards in my industry and was well on my way to getting another promotion. I was proud that I had stopped drinking and it was something that no-one in my family had previously done before, and I was happy that I was well on the way to making a career for myself out of teaching in the community and being a mentor. Wow? I was finally starting to like myself. At the very least all this good will from me was offsetting the bad stuff.</p>
<p>Soon I was finding myself blowing off friends on a hot summer day to sit in the house with the window open, a speciality coffee, my feet up, and some amazing tunes blasting out of my radio. I was starting to enjoy a part of myself that I had never known to exist. I had never done anything like this before, just enjoying some alone time. I didn't do it all the time of course, humans aren't designed to be alone, but it was nice just to spend some time with me occasionally. I think I was finally starting to like myself a little bit.</p>
<h1>Look after yourself!</h1>
<p>Please don't mistake finally enjoying some alone time with looking after myself properly. I didn't get to grips with this until much later. Looking after myself properly was an all-encompassing thing. It was looking after myself physically as well as mentally. It was eating properly, dressing for the right weather, going to the doctors when I needed to and keeping myself in physical shape and lots more. I will talk about this later as it takes a lot of self-awareness to achieve and we're only at the time where I started to enjoy my own company. Many moons have passed since then. Many hardships and many realisations afterwards.</p>
<p>I feel though when I started to create my own happiness then I could move forward in life. It was finally time to seek out some love, or at least open myself to the notion of it. For the last year I had closed all my emotional borders and worked hard on bettering myself. Now that I had hobbies to distract me, friends to go out and do fun stuff with and enjoyed being in my own company; it was finally time to check out for females on the horizon. I felt that I was ready inside. That longing for someone to spend eternity with was no longer there. That deep loneliness I had previously latched onto was replaced with a buzz of happiness and excitement for the future. I had put myself in a great position in life. I no longer felt the need for others to make me happy. I had set myself eons ahead of my peers. They were all still running around trying to find happiness and love and partnership whereas I had already found that within myself.</p>
<h1>Happiness comes from within</h1>
<p>I was in a unique position that not a huge amount of men (or the men that I knew at least) could walk into an intimate relationship and feel that they can survive if it didn't go to plan or hadn't worked out. I wasn't hugely confident in myself yet but I knew that if whoever I had chosen ended up not compatible with me then I could quite happily ease into the state that I was in currently, which was a happy one. Beforehand I would walk into partnerships all in, heart first, that if it didn't work out the world was ending. I would take it as such a personal affliction that it ended and I would look to them to create my happiness. Now? I was happy. I created my own happiness and no-one was going to squish that. I was excited for what the future would bring.</p>
<p>This was a great starting point to begin a relationship</p>

Hi! I liked your courage for writing your story and your feelings. I find that we are often too hard on ourselves, much more so than other people are. So really, that's the importance of being our own best friend that we are the first ones who are kind to us or not then it colors and shapes our reality. I mean as infants our parents do this for us. But as adults we should be so lucky to see through bad programming. These belief systems that we inherited are often erroneous because the truth about each and every one of us is that we are amazing beyond belief! Infinite beings of joy and wonder. May we keep that with us always!

You're very correct. If we aren't nice to ourselves then how can we be nice to anyone else? :)

"The only way someone can be of help to you is in challenging your ideas. If you're ready to listen and if you're ready to be challenged, there's one thing that you can do, but no one can help you. What is this most important thing of all? It's called self-observation.”

I often think about the meaning of life, relations between people, friendship. Your reflections also help me to develop my point of view on different situations. And as you correctly noted, happiness comes to us from within. It is always with us, only you need to understand this and accept it. Thank you very much! @raymondspeaks

Great story about journey of self discovery! Happiness sure is hidden from the plain sight, many people spend their entire lifetime and can't figure out how to reach it. If you don't love yourself you are incapable to love anybody else! Enjoyed reading your post dear!

I really like your post! I've been experiencing some issues with being by my self as well. It's not that I don't like myself, but I get quite easily bored when I'm alone, and when I'm bored I start overthinking which then often leads to some degree of anxiety. I've never really lived all by myself and I love it when there are a lot of things happening around me. I'm trying to learn how to meditate to calm my overthinking mind and I know that it would help me a lot to learn to really enjoy being by myself. Thank you for a inspiring post, I hope I will also be able to inspire people through steemit in the same way. :) Mia

A good tip is to find something to do when you're alone. I write when I'm bored! It helps at the early stages anyway. I don't have that overthinking problem anymore like I once did. Time heals, work on the inner demons and whilst you wait keep your head down in something engaging! Hope that works / helps :)
