What is it?
Self-Esteem Significance
It comes from a Greek word that means
“reverence for self”
Self Element:•Beliefs
•Attitudes•Values We embrace about
ourselves
Esteem Element:
It portrays the value one gives
oneself
In other words, self- esteem is not:
• Singing your own praises, but more knowing you are enough worth.• Thinking you are faultless – since not a soul is – but recognizing you are worthy of being loved and accepted.
Self- Esteem Importance:
It is vital since it will help you to respect yourself despite your mistakes, and as a result, people around you will respect you as well.
How to improve your Self-Esteem
Identify your
abilities and skills
Accept your
body no matter whatStop yourself
when hearing disapproving comments in
your mind
Identify your Abilities and Skills
• When we are able to focus on our outstanding qualities, we learn to love and accept ourselves.
• By writing a listing of your abilities and skills you will be capable to realize of your enormous value and importance.
• If you face some trouble preparing the list, ask your friends to assist you with it.
• The benefits of this exercise will surprise you. You will discover many other talents you were not aware of.
Accept your body no matter what
• To accept your body independently of its size, color or shape is one of the most critical steps in order to get a healthful self esteem.
• If you feel concerned in relation to your size or weight, then you can visit to a doctor to be sure everything is all right.
• In addition, you may ask professional support such as nutritionists or personal trainers, for them to assist you to feel comfortable with your health and appearance.
• Keep in mind that your body is an exclusive and irreplaceable sample that makes a distinction among you and the rest of the world.
Stop yourself when hearing disapproving comments in
your mind• Once, Mahatma Gandhi said: “A man is but the product of his thoughts. What he thinks, he becomes”.
• When you allow the access of harmful voices to your head you give them the power to bring discouragement, depression and further negative feelings that therefore, will turn you down.
• What we need in these cases is to be firm against destructive thoughts by stopping them immediately.
• To avoid pessimistic conversations is another useful tool to keep away all these unconstructive comments, as well.
What I mean is…Of course, life does not consist on
feeling content and comfortable all the time.
Being up and down during our journey is something normal, what is abnormal is to feel that you are not worthy of love and acceptance.
When you are able to acknowledge your great value it becomes your source to get the courage to undertake new projects and the strength to believe in yourself.
Furthermore, when we have a good self esteem, it empowers us to make the right decisions in our living.
Do you ever feel like a plastic
bagDrifting through the wind,
wanting to start again?
Do you ever feel, feel so
paper thin
Like a house of cards, one
blow from caving in?
Do you ever feel already
buried deep?
Six feet under screams, but
no one seems to hear a thing
Do you know that there's still
a chance for you
'Cause there's a spark in you?
You just gotta ignite the light
and let it shine
Just own the night like the
4th of July
'Cause baby, you're a
firework
Come on, show 'em what
you're worth
Make 'em go, oh, oh, oh
As you shoot across the sky
Baby, you're a firework
Come on, let your colors
burstMake 'em go, oh, oh, oh
You're gonna leave 'em falling
down
You don't have to feel like a
waste of space
You're original, cannot be
replaced
If you only knew what the
future holds
After a hurricane comes a
rainbow
Maybe you're reason why all
the doors are closed
So you could open one that
leads you to the perfect road
Like a lightning bolt, your
heart will blow
And when it's time, you'll
know
You just gotta ignite the light
and let it shine
Just own the night like the
4th of July
'Cause baby you're a firework
Come on, show 'em what
you're worth
Make 'em go, oh, oh, oh
As you shoot across the sky
Baby, you're a firework
Come on, let your colors
burst
Make 'em go, oh, oh, oh
You're gonna leave 'em falling
down
Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon,
moon, moon
It's always been inside of you,
you, you
And now it's time to let it
through
'Cause baby you're a firework
Come on, show 'em what
you're worth
Make 'em go, oh, oh, oh
As you shoot across the sky
Baby, you're a firework
Come on, let your colors
burstMake 'em go, oh, oh, oh
You're gonna leave 'em falling
down
Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon,
moon, moon
Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon,
moon, moon
