HOW TO LOVE YOU MORE
For me, the fact of having a good self-esteem is essential to have a good emotional well-being, because if you do not love you, you will not feel well. To love oneself in the first place does not mean to be selfish, in the negative sense of the term. It does not mean that you love yourself and only you and others. It means to love oneself as a principle and be your center, to take you into account in your day to day and to meet your needs. That does not mean that you believe better than anyone (nobody is) or that you only have in mind. Or that sometimes you put other people as a priority for special reasons. But not always and not 100 per 100 of the time. It is good that if someone close to you gets sick stop taking care of yourself or doing things that you like to be with this person. And in this case you also have to take care of yourself.
To start having a good self-esteem, I throw a couple of questions to you, what is having a good self-esteem? What is it important for you?
According to wikipedia, self-esteem is:
Self-esteem is a set of perceptions, thoughts, evaluations, feelings and tendencies of behavior directed towards other people, towards their way of being, and towards the features of our body and our character. In summary: it is the evaluative perception of ourselves, in its hierarchy of human needs, it describes the need for appreciation, which is divided into two aspects, the appreciation one has for oneself (self-esteem, confidence, skill, sufficiency, etc.), and the respect and esteem that is received from other people (recognition, acceptance, etc.) The expression of healthiest appreciation according to Maslow is that which is expressed “in the respect we deserve others, more than the popularity, celebrity and adulation »
So a good self-esteem is having a good perception of oneself
According to this, how do you perceive yourself? is good or bad?
To start having a good self-esteem, apart from knowing what it is and why you want to have a good self-esteem (for me having a good self-esteem helps me to be happy, to be a better person, to feel able to do things, to feel comfortable To accept myself as I am, with my virtues and defects and to be able to increase my virtues and decrease my defects) you have to know how you are, so to begin with (rather to continue, because we have already talked about what is self-esteem and for what you want to have a good self-esteem) to work it, a good way is to sit for a while with paper and pencil and write your virtues. See the good things you have. And ask people around you to tell you the good things they see in you. Surely you will be surprised!
