Low self esteem is like a time-bomb, ready to explode anytime. And trying to ‘diffuse’ this mental time bomb with the wrong tools can cause unimaginable destruction. So here’s 3 tips or tools you can use to immediately beat the ticking time bomb of low self esteem.
# 1: Choose the right kind of crowd.
There was a lyric from a song which I clearly etched to my memory. It goes something like this,”Don’t read beauty magazines. It makes you feel ugly!”
To me, that’s music to my ears. And the same goes to choosing the right kind of crowd you want to associate yourself with. Napoleon Hill, the prominent philanthropist, take this concept a bit further by introducing ‘Master Mind’ concept. When you get constant encouragemnet and support to achieve a higher level, it’s hard to imagine you’ll be bogged down by low self esteem.
So when your self esteem is on the low side, call, share, and communicate with your ‘folks’. This surely puts low self esteem at a very far distance, so far, that your eyes can’t see.
# 2: Submit to a list.
This is not an ordinary list. Here’s what I mean…
For every victory which you had before you, no matter how small or insignificant that you might have think, make a list of these, and keep it handy. The longer the list, the better. And when ‘Mr. Low Self Esteem’ pays you a visit (usually unannounced), all you had to do is to submit yourself to this list.
Almost immediately you’ll feel that your pupils dilated, your heart beats faster, and you become more enthusiastic. This beats all those fancy ‘designer drugs’ everytime. Plus, it’s free, and the only side effect it has is joy.
Can you resist that?
#3: Get help.
We can’t deny that a small percentage of us, can’t beat low self esteem alone. Usually they belong to the chronic group, and they need help. Profesional help. For these people, low self esteem eats them up like cancer and they become suicidal. Talks or words or imagination whatsoever, have little or no impact to them. They need to be contained and treated.
If you notice that in any of your friends, or you yourself are having this, the best thing to do here is to immediately seek professional help.
But my words might have fallen to deaf ears. I wouldn’t know, would I?
Obviously for the last tips, you can choose a reputable institution or organization but if you think you can handle it on your own, with just minimal help from your trusted ones or loved ones, then you want to follow some proven guide or sort. Steps To Self Esteem is one of them.
