Default How to love oneself?

I Know this may seem obvious to the masses, but not me. I do not like myself and especially love myself. I wish I could be different. I have no talent; I am slow, uncreative, and boring. I am not trying to gain sympathy or sing a sad song, but this is how I feel. What’s wrong with me? I have tried reading so many self-help books and a myriad of things to learn how to love myself, but I always end up back in the same cycle of depression, misery, and self-loathing.

I know, I know, no one can ever truly love you if you do not love yourself, and I am trying but it is so hard. I want to experience self-love and I want others to love me.

For all you people out there that truly love yourself and are glad to be you, can you please share with me how you do it? I know that question sounds silly, but I am serious. How do you love yourself? How do you find happiness, peace, and joy from being just you?

Thanks for any advice.
