5 Simple And Effective Tips For Improving Self Esteem

[fayt]

1. Focus on your strengths not your weaknesses

Although identifying your weaknesses and striving to improve them is a good thing, it's important not to place to much emphasis on them. Instead focus on your strengths and credit yourself for having these positive qualities.

* Focusing on your strengths will help you strengthen your talents as well as help you to better accept yourself for the great person that you are.

* Credit yourself for your positive attributes no matter how trivial. Even simple things such as being a good parent warrants self appreciation.

2. Identify and overcome negative thought patterns

I've always said that negativity attracts negativity and positivity attracts positivity! Negative thought patterns can have a detrimental affect on your self esteem and confidence and can really snowball if you don't keep them in check.

It's perfectly normal to have bad patches and get bogged down by life but the key is to acknowledge these self destructive thoughts and take corrective measures. Thwart them before they have the chance to manifest!

* Learn to counteract any negative thought patterns with positive ones.

* Use positive affirmations to affirm your strengths and positive qualities.

* Use breathing exercises to calm your mind during stressful situations.

3. Nobody is perfect

I have always said; there was only ever one guy who was perfect and he was crucified for being so! Basically there's no such thing as perfect, we can all strive to be better but NEVER perfect! STOP focusing on your imperfections.

Some things we simply cannot change, accept them for what they are and yourself for who you are. If you ridicule yourself over minor imperfections then you'll never find the self esteem you desire in order to be confident and happy.

4. Who cares what others think!

Don't take the opinion and views of others to heart especially if they contradict your own beliefs! You can't make everyone happy. PERIOD. Those who mock the views and opinions of others are usually the ones who lack self esteem are not happy in there-selves.

* Use your own judgement and decisions to guide you, it's always good to get another opinion but it doesn't mean their opinion is right, especially if it clashes with yours.

5. You're only human

We can only ever try our best and hope that's good enough. We will not succeed at everything we do, it's a fact. Apply yourself to everything you do and if you don't achieve the results you desire then learn from that but remind yourself that you tried.

* Be proud of yourself for your efforts. Don't allow negative thoughts to seep in such as "I'm not good enough".

* Whenever you feel you failed at something learn from your mistakes and commit to getting it right next time.

Changing your opinions and feelings you hold about yourself in order to improve self esteem is an ongoing process and does take time. Our beliefs, thoughts and emotions are a projection of our subconscious which has developed from our past experiences throughout life.
