There's a self-love crisis worldwide, with most of the world not feeling self-love.

And that's a crisis for many reasons, but one of them is that self-love is a prerequisite to happiness.

At first, that paused me as I poured into the happiness research to break it into practical steps for the Just a Little Bit Happier Project.

If so many don't have self-love and self-love is needed to be happy, what am I doing? Have I missed a critical first step?

But then, I realized that the same steps toward happiness also open the path to deep self-love.

Self-love = Happiness

Happiness = Self-love

Creating actionable steps toward happiness is the same as creating actionable steps toward self-love.

And the first step towards self-love is practicing self-compassion.
