A lack of acceptance can hold one back in all aspects of your life. It weakens your confidence and can keep you from attaining your full potential.

People with high self-esteem are more resistant to criticism. They recognize that it is OK to accept oneself while striving for ongoing self-improvement.

What is self-acceptance?

Self-acceptance involves accepting oneself and your unique personality qualities just as they are. You accept them, whether pleasant or negative. This comprises both your physical and mental traits.

To acquire self-acceptance, you must learn to embrace aspects of yourself that you find bad or unattractive.

How does self-acceptance influence your day-to-day activities?

Research indicates that self-acceptance is critical for general mental health and well-being. The research suggests a direct link between low self-acceptance and mental illness.
