Helping You Help Yourself

i need some help with my self esteem?

Posted by admin on Aug 24, 2010 under Self Help

please give me some tips to gain confidence

Try this:

1) Set a specific, realistic goal.
2) Write it down on a carefully prepared chart.
3) Give yourself a deadline to complete it.
4) Think of it as a priority.
5) When you complete it, check it off the list.
7) Set another specific, realistic goal and repeat the process.
8) When you complete ten goals, give yourself a reward.

People with high self-esteem treat themselves with respect. They take care of their appearance. They have good hygiene. They tuck in their shirts. They wear belts. They tie their shoes. They have good posture. They tend not to be covered with piercings and tattoos. The question is, do they do these things because they have high self-esteem or do they have high self-esteem because they do these things? Assume that it’s the latter. And like the saying, "Fake it till you make it," you can gain high self-esteem by acting as if you already have it.

Final point: Self-esteem has to be actively earned and not passively received. Your effort to improve yourself by asking this question is a big step towards earning it. Well done!

I hope this helps.

    To have self - esteem , you ought to have a high regard or estimation of yourself . Realize that you are a worthy person because you are unique and that there is no one like you in the whole world . You should approve of yourself and you ought to have a healthy liking for yourself . You surely possess many wonderful characteristics and traits which you might have overlooked . It’s time that you take stock of yourself and make an inventory of your assets such as your good looks , your good character , your talents and abilities , your record of past successes and accomplishments and your potential for further improvement and achievements . It’s also very important that you have an unwavering belief in yourself, that you know in your guts that you can do whatever you set your mind to . Don’t be easily discouraged whenever you encounter some setbacks such as frustrations , disappointments , or even failure in your quest for reaching your goals because if you’ll just keep on persisting with an undaunted determination , eventually you’ll succeed . And having achieved success makes you even more confident to face another challenge . Your string of successes will then enable you to gain self - confidence and hence , self - esteem .
    And with a sound self - esteem , you become a better and more fulfilled individual , able to do those things that will make you happier in life .

    I used to hate myself. Now I think I’m awesome and perfect and the greatest person in existence, besides my boyfriend, and I love it.

    I believe there was a turning point at some stage - perhaps around the time I met my boyfriend, and from there I started automatically making some fairly substantial lifestyle changes.

    1. When you look in the mirror, make sure to focus on the good points and flaunt them. I have a pretty fantastic body and a relatively great rear end, so I make the most of these aspects.

    2. When you look at other people, think of how you are better than them. I know this may sound slightly narcissistic and perhaps selfish and rude, but it definitely works.

    3. Insult other people as much as possible, even your friends. I don’t mean out loud. If you’re like me, you’ll start believing that everyone is jealous of you.

    4. All that other psychological bullshit is exactly that, bullshit. Best way to gain confidence is to hate on everyone else.

    5. Accept all compliments from others and begin to understand that these people are not lying to you, what they are saying is actually what they truly believe. Do not disagree with them.

    6. I will not tell you to ignore insults. This is impossible. Simply return them.

    I hope this helps, best of luck :)

    Sorry, self esteem needs to be earned if it is to be real. You start by learning. Learn everything you can about things that interest you. Know what you are talking about and resist the temptation to speak about things you do not know about. Believe in yourself. Take stock in your abilities and attributes. Know your strengths and weaknesses. All of these things build self confidence.

    Once you are confident you can accomplish what you set out to do, you will succeed. That is the key! Success is where self esteem is earned. Do this in everything, even the small stuff. Can’t boil an egg? Work at leaning to be the best egg boiler anyone can ever be. Can’t parallel park? Learn the best technique and practice until you can do it like a professional. Do not let things just defeat you.

    Soon you will feel completely different about you. You will feel capable and sure. You will not be able to do everything well but you will be able to do a lot of things really well and be able to do everything well enough. That is where self esteem comes from. Seeing the obstacle and figuring out a way to overcome it.

  9. John Said,

    Identify your successes. Everyone is good at something, so discover the things at which you excel, then focus on your talents. Give yourself permission to take pride in them. Give yourself credit for your successes. Inferiority is a state of mind in which you’ve declared yourself a victim. Do not allow yourself to be victimized. Express yourself, whether it’s through art, music, writing, etc. Find something you enjoy. Everyone is born with talents and strengths. You can develop and excel in yours. If it’s difficult to name two or three things you have some ability in or just plain love to do, think about things others do that you would like to do too and take some lessons or join an enthusiasts club. When you’re following your passion, not only will it have a therapeutic effect, but you’ll feel unique and accomplished, all of which can help build your self confidence. Plus, adding a variety of interests to your life will not only make you more confident, but it will increase your chances of meeting compatible friends!

    Break The "What If" Cycle by Answering Your Own Questions with "Then I Will…"

    Okay, what if you do miss the last bus? Can you take along enough money for a taxi? It’s not cheating to plan and prepare or work out what you’ll say beforehand. It works. And each time you get through a difficult situation you become more confident.
    What if you get tongue-tied at a party? Ask questions, especially " what do you think…." People love being asked for their opinions. They’ll think you’re fascinating . And there’s nothing wrong with being a listener.
    Listening has several advantages; it’ll give you clues about what to say and you might actually find it interesting! But perhaps most important is that draws your attention off anxious and self-critical thoughts.
