Self Esteem - What Are Your Values?

SELF ESTEEM!
Just what is it?

Self Esteem is the VALUE that we place on OURSELVES !
And, it is that VALUE which determines our ability to experience satisfaction in life - OUR LIFE!

The extent to which we VALUE ourselves is a product of PAST EXPERIENCES...
OUR SUCCESSES and FAILURES (as we perceive them) and...
the SUPPORT and RECOGNITION we receive from others,
especially those who have played an important part, or are significant, in our life and...
it is the SUPPORT, LOVE and RECOGNITION (or maybe lack of it) that we receive in our younger years!
ALL of these aspects influence how and what we feel about ourselves RIGHT NOW -
 it influences our SELF ESTEEM - 
our SELF WORTH and...
our BELIEFS!

We LOVE ourselves:-
 to the extent that we KNOW HOW...
to the extent that we ourselves HAVE BEEN LOVED and...
we are only ABLE TO LOVE OTHERS, to the extent that, WE LOVE OURSELVES!!!

HOW TELLING THIS IS!

SO... 
depending on whatever our SELF ESTEEM - low, medium or high - is,
and...
depending on whatever our SELF VALUE is,
 and...
depending on what our SELF BELIEFS are, 
they all reflect in HOW NEGATIVELY or  POSITIVELY we...
SEE...
THINK and...
TALK to ourselves!

Do you have LIMITING BELIEFS - 
'I'm too young, too old, too fat, to thin. I'm a woman, a man, I'm the wrong culture, too poor, too dumb, do not have the education, I've failed, I've had a bad childhood' and...
the list goes on and on...

Are you holding onto these LIMITING BELIEFS as tightly as you can? 
Are you letting NEGATIVE SELF TALK SABOTAGE YOUR FUTURE?
Are you STUCK because of FEAR, 
or...
do you hide behind a WALL OF HURT with no GATE to get out?
IS THIS YOU?
IF IT IS - THINK ABOUT THESE FOUR ASPECTS -
YOUR - BELIEFS... SELF TALK... FEELINGS... ACTIONS!
All of these are cyclical in nature and...
 one leads to another to another to another!
If you have LIMITING or NEGATIVE BELIEFS, 
your SELF TALK will be LIMITING or NEGATIVE, 
and...
your FEELINGS will be LIMITING or NEGATIVE, 
and...
your ACTIONS will be LIMITING or NEGATIVE!

This will go on-and-on throughout your life - it will ruin your happiness... success,
 and...
 ability to love!

SO INSTEAD...
CONFRONT THAT BELIEF!
CONFRONT THAT SELF TALK!
CONFRONT THAT FEELING,
 and...
CONFRONT THAT ACTION,
 and...
BELIEVE in YOURSELF!

One of the hardest lessons you will learn in life is learning to believe in yourself!
Once you get that you will realize that you are capable of anything!
(Stven Aitchison)

Each of us is a unique being, there is no one else in the world... universe like us so...
YOU...
YES, YOU are very special!
You are a one-of-kind,
 and...
 here in this world NOW, in this TIME and SPACE!
You are here to SHINE in your OWN WAY no matter...
what someone thought about you...
what they said to you...
how they treated you...
in the PAST or NOW!

Do not let FEAR of releasing what you ALREADY KNOW go!
I know that it can be SAFE and COMFORTABLE behind that WALL!
But that WALL has been MADE out of - 
REJECTION...
COMPARISONS...
STEREOTYPES...
INFERIORITY and...
many other negative aspects!

Do not let THESE control your BELIEFS...
SELF TALK...
FEELINGS and...
ACTIONS!

Do not PLAY these things around-and-around in your MIND like a BROKEN RECORD as...
the PERCEPTION that you have of YOURSELF is fully dependent upon all of these!

SO...
CHANGE YOUR OPINION OF YOURSELF, 
do not be AFRAID...
make a GATE in your WALL and...
STEP OUT into LIFEYOUR LIFE...
YOUR LIFE as it was MEANT to be LIVED!

Dear friends,

I wish you love... grace... hope and the courage to fight - FIGHT for YOUR OWN LIFE as...
You are the creator of your own reality...
and it is through your own BELIEFS, SELF TALK, FEELINGS and ACTIONS that you can live the best life EVER!
Because YOU are the CHOOSER of your THOUGHTS...
SO... 
let those old LIMITING, SELF NEGATIVE BELIEFS, SELF TALK, FEELINGS 
and...
ACTIONS go 
and... 
work towards a happier, more positive YOU!

I know that life does not play by the 'RULES' but in the long run everything will work out so... 
my friends...
GO FORTH IN TRUST AND HOPE OF WHO AND WHAT YOU REALLY ARE!
