Self Esteem.
Self Esteem
Self-esteem helps people feel they can develop their own skills and contribute to their community. It enables them to try new things without fear of failing, to reach out and make friends, and to manage problems they are likely to meet along the way.
To build self esteem
- avoid comparing yourself with others.
- look after your body
- manage stress and negative emotions: if you find yourself angry, sad, and anxious, stop and take action
- nourish your relationships. Treat others the way you would like to be treated
- learn from your mistakes
- practice self-acceptance: accept what you can’t change, and also what you can value
