It is Tuesday morning and my blog is going out late. It seems my trusted computer has decided to go on the decline. It has been a good tool and live a full and happy life of 7 years. It's replacement is here and if lives as long it will be well worth the investment. If not well shame on me for not investing in quality.
Speaking of quality and investing. How do you invest in yourself? Do you go for quality or quantity. How do you invest in others? I am in a situation currently where the person says they want to change. They have a little. However they are not making the investment. Sometimes it is frustrating to know the potential someone holds. We can see what needs to be done. Yet the person we are speaking to or working with does not see it. As a coach we are taught to stay as an observer and that way we can keep open and not close ourselves in with the client. As family we want to see a successful outcome and we do get inside which adds to our frustration and the anger sets in as to why can't I fix this. The problem is it isn't our problem. It is their problem and only they can fix it and they have to choose to fix it. Then we can be of help or a resource for them.
This leads us into today's topic Start Building Self Esteem Today. Enjoy the read and I hope you chose well.
Start Building Self Esteem Today
What Is Self Esteem?
High self esteem is an extremely important characteristic of all highly successful people. Without
High self esteem will give you the courage to keep going when things get tough, and believe in yourself when others say you will never accomplish something. Developing and building self esteem is therefore one of the most important and valuable things you could ever do for yourself. Unfortunately, the value of self esteem is often overlooked, yet the truth is we could all improve our level of self esteem in some way or another.
Things That Build Self Esteem
The things that improve your self esteem are quite simple. Basically anything that makes you feel good about yourself, makes you feel important or valuable as a person will build your level of self esteem. So if your life is full of these things on a consistent daily basis, then your level of self esteem will automatically rise.
However the opposite is also true. So anything that makes you feel bad, reduces your feelings of worthiness or importance, will lower your self esteem.
So when you look at self esteem like this, you can see that overall self esteem is just a balance between things that make you feel good, and things that make you feel bad. If you feel good more often than you do bad, you will have high self esteem and vice versa.
So why is this important? Well many people who suffer from low levels of self esteem continue to expose themselves to things that make them feel bad. They may hang around with the same people everyday who laugh at them, or treat them disrespectfully. They may talk to themselves in a way that lacks respect, such as saying they are a looser or that they can’t do anything. Or they may do other things which day by day make them feel the same way.
Change Your Life, Change Your Thoughts
So the key here is change. If you are able to identify the things that make you feel bad, and replace them with the things that make you feel good, ultimately your self esteem will improve. You won’t have to try to improve and build up your self esteem, it will just happen automatically.
This principle of change is so simple it is often overlooked, because people become used to doing the same things day in day out. The trouble with this is that by doing the same things everyday, your thought patterns remain the same everyday and so you FEEL the same everyday. This is the real value and importance of change, which is why sometimes you need to change your life first, before you can change your thoughts.
Change will break your current thought patterns and create new patterns of thought. It is up to you to create patterns that will improve and enrich your life, and you do this by exposing yourself to things that make you feel good about yourself and raise your value as a person.
