The most important ingredient for success is self esteem. If you think you have a low self esteem, you can restore your damaged self esteem using these self esteem affirmations. For that purpose, it is important to know what is low self esteem.
Self esteem is feeling good about your self. A person with high self worth is successful in any field. All of us have very high self esteem when we are young. However, as we grow up, we are bombarded with negativism. Knowingly or unknowingly, even parents often berate their own child/children. Recent research also shows that very low self esteem may result in the shrinking of the brain.
The difference between low self esteem and high self esteem is the difference between misery and happiness, between failure and success, between tears and laughter. Your ability or inability to love yourself determines your station and status in life. If you are unable to respect yourself, don’t expect others to do so. Greater self esteem is the key to a better life.
Self Esteem enables you to walk with your head held high.
Psychologists say that it takes at least SEVEN positivisms to cancel out ONE negativism. The constant criticism of the child results in damaged self worth. Notice that successful people in any walk of life have a very high self esteem. They think very highly about themselves.
Unsuccessful people generally have a very low self worth. Repeating the following self esteem affirmations in front of a mirror, especially when looking into your own eyes, is a very good way of restoring your self esteem.
Remember, as you love yourself more and more, your self esteem will grow higher and higher. Try to combine two or more self esteem affirmations when repeating. Do this for at least six months and then see the results.
These affirmations can also be treated as self worth affirmations.
