Be gentle on yourself.
Accept and love yourself where you are and acknowledge that even up until, now you have been living life the best way you know how.
With emotional pain as with physical pain, if we keep doing something stupid we keep getting hurt.
If you lose a crunch match or made many mistakes, you may experience emotional upset. This is normal and human. If you choose to learn from the situation you may well discover that you can live happily without the things to which you were so attached.
I make the point that successful people learn from such experiences and adjust their values so life's hiccups become less painful.

You deserve love and respect just because you are you.
Like many fairy tales, Rapunzel has a deeper meaning to it. Rapunzel in a lady who lives locked up in a castle, imprisoned by an old witch who keeps telling her how ugly she was. One day, handsome prince passes by the tower and tells Rapunzel of her loveliness. She lets down her golden locks, so he may climb her hair to rescue her.
It is neither the castle not the witch that has kept her as a prisoner, but her own belief that she was ugly. When she recognises her beauty, reflected in the face of the prince charming, she sees that she can be set free.
We all need to be aware of the witch or witches inside ourselves that are stopping us from breaking free.
