Self-Worth


Self-worth begins at an early age, and it continues evolving as our self-esteem is formed. The concept of self-worth helps us to do self-acceptance, self-love, self-compassion, and self-respect. Without these things, our self-worth is greatly affected, especially in the aspect of self-esteem and with our self-confidence. Self-care nurtures our self-worth, and it helps develop our self-love and self-acceptance. Yet, self-worth is sometimes misunderstood with self-kindness, self-esteem, or any other topic about the “self “.  

To have self-worth, you allow this feeling to enter your mind and your heart. You believe that you are a good person no matter how many times people hurt you with their actions and their words. Self-worth is knowing that you are a good person with enormous positive thoughts about yourself and letting go of those negative thoughts. Also, it is learning to manage those negative thoughts by ignoring them, analyzing them, and then letting them go from our minds. Self-worth puts our thoughts, feelings, emotions, and behaviors together like clay and helps mold us into the person we were meant to be.

Everyone has a different level of self-worth due to self-esteem, self-confidence, self-love, and self-respect. Self-worth may seem to be superficial for some because of their appearances, income, career, achievements, habits, and who they socialize with. But self-worth is more than that because it is the essence of an individual from the inside. It is working on not making comparisons, not being too critical, and working on your insecurities while being your authentic self. Nevertheless, it is a lifetime process to get to know yourself at a deeper level, a learning experience, and stay encouraged.

Exercising your mind with self-love and self-acceptance techniques. Additionally, having an understanding of yourself, your needs, your desires, and what you want to do in life. Taking care of your relationships while you protect your self-worth with self-respect. Being responsible for what you do in your career and with your relationships with others. Therefore, do not feel overwhelmed and frustrated.

It takes time to get to know oneself because of social media influences and being influenced easily by others. A person with self-worth is capable of feeling comfortable in a tense situation and confronting them with a clear mind. You do not need to seek their approval for what you do. Instead, you appreciate and value feedback from others while being yourself without feeling guilty. You do not please others or accept their negative criticism to hurt you.

Practice self-positive conversations internally with self-compassion, self-love, and body positivity. Learn to do self-improvement with a nice attitude. Do meditation, positive affirmations, and other techniques to help you relax during tense situations. Discover yourself without hurting yourself too much while in a relationship.
