What others visualize or verbalize about us and what we

experience in our surroundings or day to day activities often

effects the perception of who we think we are. If we hear or

experience more positive than negative things about us, we are

likely to have greater self-esteem. If we hear or experience more

negative things than positive things about us, we are likely to

have lower self-esteem.

Therefore a person who has just been fired from his job would

likely have a lower self-esteem. A child who has been repeatedly

been told that he or she is no good would likely develop low

self-esteem.

An employee who is always reprimanded by his boss will likely

have low self-esteem. A spouse who feels unloved and

unappreciated will have, or eventually develop over a period of

time, a feeling of low self-esteem.

Low self esteem complicates a person’s ability to rise above his

present station in life. Lack of self esteem is unhealthy. Low

self-esteem is like a self-fulfilling prophecy in that it helps

perpetuate individual’s dulled senses, feeling less creative,

less productive and lacking that extraordinary zest for life.

Low self esteem can make a person depressed and physically sick.

In extreme cases, low self-esteem can drive individuals to

self-destruct or negatively impact another person’s life in some

manner.

There are two viable ways in which to combat the lack of

self-esteem. The first way is something that you can do yourself

right now. The other way would require the help of a

professional.

Let’s pay particular importance to the first method. Not only is

it free, but this simple and easy exercise can be done right now!

You will experience a greater sense of self-esteem knowing that

you were able to help yourself in fulfilling your own desires,

ambitions or goals.

The first stride in directing yourself towards a lasting

turnabout is to take that first step or action and accomplish

something. Start with the little things that can be easily

completed. Once you accomplish something, proceed to set your

sights on completing additional little tasks or working on other

areas where improvement is desired. Let these cumulative efforts

and accomplishments build on each other. Making yourself proud of

your progress, for good reason, will provide you the fuel to

continue this process or journey.

Are you a couch potato? Start moving around and do some exercise!

Do you smoke? Quit smoking!

Do not be too ambitious. Remember, you are advised to accomplish

little things first. If your desired tasks still seem

overwhelming at first or like daunting challenges, attack these

projects in smaller pieces or activities. This will help

jumpstart your momentum in the right direction.

A ten minute walk a day is already a little accomplishment.

Cutting back smoking by half is already a little accomplishment.

Though these little things may seem insignificant, they will have

a snowball effect on the development of your self-esteem. This

will lead to the ultimate realization of all your goals, the

discovery and release of the high self-esteem hiding and waiting

“within” you!
