You may answer no I do not have a low self esteem, I a am a very self confident individual I believe I can do anything I set my mind to. However even if you are self confident; does not exactly mean that you possess a high self image. This is completely different on than confidence. Your self image comes from deep within; and it is how you truly feel about yourself.
If you have ever known anyone who is very self confident in their career. Yet they find their personal life a wreck or they are constantly getting in trouble and do not feel good about themselves. They are dealing with a low self esteem issue. One can not possess a high self esteem and their personal life be totally chaotic. If you possess a high self esteem a high self confidence level then everything in your life whether personal or professional will be wonderful.
Only you can be honest with yourself about whether or not you have it. Answer these questions honestly and based on the answers you will know if you have a low self esteem or not:
- Do you constantly compare yourself to others?
- Do you possess regular feelings of being victimized?
- Do you feel like people take advantage of you?
- Do you find yourself constantly apologizing to others?
- Do you fear change?
- Are you constantly regretting about past decisions you made?
- Do you engage in regular self-sabotage?
Were the responses to those questions positive or negative? Be honest with yourself if you do possess one it is not the end of the world. You can learn how to work on it so that it will help you achieve whatever it is you desire. You do not have to continue living with the negative responses you got.
We all achieve our belief system while we are children. We are given our beliefs through people that we love and respect. If they tend to tell you something; then you tend to believe it. Sometimes what they tell you can empower you; while sometimes the opposite is the same. So how can you change that disempower low self esteem to help you achieve whatever it is you desire. Well it all starts with personal development.
You must begin the path to positive living. If you want to make more money then what what one do? They of course would be open to opportunities that presented themselves. Developing a high self esteem is the same, you can not continue to keep putting negative things in your mind and expect things to change. We are bombarded with all kinds of negativity in our lives. The negativity can come in all sorts of forms through the music we listen, television we watch and people we hang out with.
Begin cutting off the news and reading more positive books. Not only will this help your pride but it will also give you the courage to pursue your goals.
