 Train Yourself To Build Great Esteem with eDiets
If you believe your worth is based on the quality of your skills or attributes, and/or if you judge yourself harshly, and/or if you feel competitive toward others, and/or if you constantly notice others’ faults rather than their strengths, and/or if you fall prey to domineering attitudes toward others because you do not trust others enough to share the powers of control and relating, and/or if
you are submissive with others because they do not trust their own abilities to make relationship decisions… then let’s think about getting a grip!
Feeling worthy comes from within. Don’t let anybody tell you differently. Yes, it is wonderful when we receive praise -- or when others recognize our successes -- but what happens when that external reinforcement fades? Now, you’ll only have yourself to count on!
You see, too many of us set our goals according to someone else’s standards. Why do we concern ourselves so much about what others think? Why can’t we just be happy even if we don’t meet others’ expectations? The answer is: we can be happy when we set our own goals and meet our own expectations!
For those of you who are ready to feel great and get the most out of life, start today and make a change!
Beginning today, I will start:
Changing my thought process, Measuring and focusing on my past success, Believing in myself
Giving myself credit for my accomplishments
Doing things I find scary or difficult
Doing my best at all times |

|
Having self-discipline, Focusing on the positive, Living one day at a time, Believing others who affirm my worth, Lowering my perfectionistic standards, Engaging in self-affirmation, Maintaining self-acceptance, Realizing that I have not quit… that I’ve worked through my problems, Partitioning myself off from the bad memories of the
past, Thinking of myself as a good and positive person, Being determined to get more out of life.
