3 Simple Tips to Boost Your Self-Esteem
There are a lot of people out there (including myself) that struggle with low self-esteem. But the good news is, there are numerous ways to help boost your self-confidence.
Today, I’m going to share three tips that have worked out for me.
1. Affirmations
One tip to try is creating a positive affirmation for yourself. It doesn’t have to be long or overly specific; even something simple like, “You’re doing your best every day,” can be very helpful.
Repeating an affirmation to yourself a few times a day can improve your mood and help you think more positively about yourself.
2. Create and Appreciate Small Wins.
Another helpful tip is learning to celebrate the smallest of victories.
If you managed to wake up early, get to work on time, and cleaned up a bit, celebrate it.
Congratulate yourself when you do something well, even if the victory seems a little mundane because it is a surefire way to build confidence and generate a more positive mindset.
3. Give Mistakes Permission to Build You.
Lastly, allow yourself to make mistakes and don’t beat yourself up for making them. Everyone makes mistakes, and it’s not the end of the world when something goes wrong.
When you make a mistake, instead of getting angry or frustrated, be grateful because now you can improve yourself by enhancing your exposed weakness.
If it’s difficult for you to get over a mistake, try looking at things from the bright side.
And remember,
“Confidence comes from hours and days and years of constant work and dedication.” -Robert Staubach.
