I am enough self esteem
If you’re constantly telling yourself, “I have no good qualities” – I want you to turn that around and say, “I am enough self esteem”. Here’s how…
Let me share a little story about lack of self confidence
During this month, I want to get you away from the low self-esteem monologue. Not that long ago, I was working for a boss who was very demanding. I have always had a strong work ethic and would try my hardest to do the job I was asked to do. There was real pride in the effort and work I put towards my job. The problem was that my boss was constantly pushing – pushing so hard that I was made to feel like I wasn’t hitting the mark. So, I would try harder – harder until I couldn’t try anymore.
I am enough self esteem was not my motto! I got to a point that I felt no matter what I did, it wouldn’t have been good enough. I completely lost my self-confidence so I tried to reach out to friends but my confidence was so shattered that they couldn’t help.
When I reached out to Human Resources (HR) at the company, they didn’t want to do anything even though they knew the issues. So, I started to take steps to change my situation. When your confidence is shattered, it is really difficult to figure out what to do. In my case, I knew I had to leave the company since the culture was toxic. That is what I eventually did. I had to tell myself I am enough self esteem please come back!
Like yourself and others will too – tell yourself I am enough self esteem will come
It’s important to point out that you do have ultimate control. We all need friends to listen to us, but it is up to us to take back our power. This is what I did when I finally made the decision to leave the job. When I did this, I could feel my confidence coming back and I noticed that I got a ton of support from people. It felt great.
What does it mean to be sure of yourself? To me, it means that you take steps every day to improve. I knew my situation wasn’t going to change unless I changed it. I was glad I had the support of my friends at this time. But I will point out that I knew some people were not supportive – people that I thought “had my back” actually didn’t. This hurt. It took some time to get over this, but I decided that they weren’t true friends. So, be happy be yourself if others don t like it, too bad – they weren’t friends to begin with and it’s better to know that as early as possible.
How would you rate your self esteem?
Have you had any issues, either at work or school, where you were made to feel less than adequate? Maybe you are having issues in your personal relationships that are causing you to have this weird self-esteem issue. Recognize it and know that you can do something about it. If you’re having teenage insecurity problems, think back – what was happening when you felt confident? Is there something you can do to take back your power? You are stronger than you think. Rate your self-esteem back when you felt confident vs. today.
Day 4 of the 30 day challenge Self Confidence
Today is Day 4 of our Challenge. In previous days, we “let it out” – we cried, but only for a short time. We need to release these emotions. What I want you to do today is the following:
- Recognize your thoughts
- Understand that if you go down the rabbit hole of these thoughts, you will surely suffer.
- Say no! Say “I won’t do this!”
- Breathe. Move your attention to something that makes you feel good / confident.
- Repeat
Lastly, be patient. I know how hard it is but if you keep with it, you’ll get better at it. It’s not easy but you can do it.
If you’d like to refer to previous challenges, here they are:
Self-esteem awareness is important. Make sure you pay attention to your confidence. Say I am enough self esteem will return.
Gifts for someone with low self esteem
A nice bracelet with selenite (which cleanses) is a great gift for someone who is dealing with self-esteem issues. Try giving healing crystals for self-esteem when you know someone who is feeling blue.
The Power of Your Subconscious Mind might also be an appropriate gift. Give the gift of kindness with this book.
