How
to Build Your Self Esteem
When
you look at a person, it is common and only human nature to judge what you see.
People will look at you and they will judge who you are, what you do and what
you make out of yourself. If you want them to think highly of you, you can do
everything to impress them, or you can just leave things be. The truth is,
people will think what they want about you, and you should not allow their
opinion of you ruin how you see yourself. You should have enough respect for
yourself to be strong enough to shrug off all the negative energy that
surrounds you.
Building
Your Self Esteem
Some
people do not exactly feel good about themselves and this could be because of a
lot of reasons. Whatever may be the root cause of your low self-esteem, it is
important that you try to build yourself up, so that you can take on life with
more vitality.
If
you want people to respect you, you should learn how to respect yourself, and
you can build a positive self-image by:
·
Putting a smile on your
face. The best smiles can brighten up one’s day and it will work wonders. It is
normal for people to feel bad about themselves but instead of wallowing in self
pity, you should try to think about the great things in your life, and allow
these things to bring a smile to your face.
·
Dressing to impress. If
you want to feel good, you should look good. If you dress up like you do not
care, then people will not care about you; if you dress up like you own the
world, however, everyone will know that you are not one to mess around with.
·
Walking proud. Stand
straight up and hold your head up high. It does not matter how bad your life
is, the world does not have to feast on your miseries, so walk proud and live
your life like you are having a blast.
·
Being aware of your
strengths and weaknesses. Self awareness is very important. To be able to
spread your wings, you have to give yourself room to grow. Know your strengths
so that you can hone them and identify with your weaknesses so that you can
find ways to turn them around.
·
Speaking affirmations
that will lift you up. Affirmations may just be words but sometimes they are
powerful enough to make a difference in your life. If you speak it often
enough, you might begin to believe it, and it can work its wonders for you.
Avoiding
Low Self Esteem
There
are many reasons why people can develop low self-esteem over time, and you have
to find a way to significantly deal with it. Low self-esteem is like poison;
once it infects your life it will eat you up and incapacitate you. With it in
your life it will be as if you are paralyzed and you will be unable to live
life to the fullest so avoid it like the plague.
