Rebuilding your self-esteem

Members,

Here are some more tips and strategies which can help to rebuild your self-esteem:

• Do not dismiss praise or recognition from outside sources. Say thank you. (This gets easier with practice  )
• On the flipside, DO NOT accept put downs from others. This is a non-negotiable. Constructive criticism is now the accepted norm for you!
• Accept that not everyone will like you. It’s a fact of life. Some people just aren’t meant to be friends or lovers. Find people you do bond with and build relationships with them.
• Stop comparing yourself to others. You are unique. You are special in your own way and you have your own strengths. Change the focus back to you every time you feel yourself falling back into that old habit of comparison.


What do you find helpful when it comes to re-building your self-esteem? More tips to come next week!
