Alongside adopting habits of Self-Love, we must also reconcile with and reckon with our past experiences--our "story." If we don't accept all that we've become and all that we've experienced then we can't truly love our present selves. One challenge is accepting even the pieces of our story that we didn't engineer--those parts of us or experiences we've had in which we didn't choose for it to be that way. In these cases, we don't have to LOVE the incident or the aspect of our personality/body/etc, but we can still reconcile with those things, in order to fully appreciate who we are, and to love ourselves unconditionally.
