Boost Self-Esteem Month is dedicated to improving your self-esteem. Generally,
men's self-esteem is higher than women's self-esteem. However, some men have
low self-esteem due to failures, rejections, childhood experiences, and other
reasons. Yet, women can have low self-esteem because of appearances, childhood
experiences, comparisons, criticism, abuse, and failures in school experiences.
But both can have low self-esteem because of their parents who did not motivate
them.
Self-esteem is
susceptible to being damaged by self-rejection. Also, by not persevering in
your ambitions. Staying with people that mistreat you because you feel you do
not deserve anything better. Additionally, being influenced by social media, and
magazines, and want to have fame. Hurting yourself with negative self-talk is
another example of self-rejection.
Boosting your self-esteem is necessary for your physical health, mental health, and relationships. Learning to work on your self-esteem internally and not externally. Some women rely on their appearances to develop their self-esteem externally. It is useful to have a good appearance but more important to love yourself. Moreover, feel proud of your accomplishments.
Let yourself be
understood by you even if people do not understand you. Be yourself and not make
self-judgment. Being harsh to yourself lowers your self-esteem. Do not do
self-comparison either because you feel neglected or believe someone's negative
comments about yourself. Sometimes people closer to you cannot say something
nice.
Do self-love, self-care, body positivity, mindfulness, meditation, and therapy if needed to develop your self-esteem. Keep your distance away from people who call you names and have a negative attitude. Work on your attitude to understand yourself. Do items that fortify and keep your self-esteem high. Here are links about improving your self-esteem.
