I have found that having a low sense of self esteem means I get proven wrong when good things happen and makes me think and get a bit more confidence As times goes by

I don’t know. It just happened with me. Could be because I’ve kept up an exercise routine for 1 and a half years, and it makes me feel better mentally. I don’t think anyone will feel worse about themselves after exercising, + eating good. Could also be that it came naturally with age, maybe both.

I think also being around or talking to other people can help, and talking with people that appreciate you and you appreciate them.

Gotta change faulty thinking. Replace bad thoughts with good thoughts until it’s habit. Good things.

I have started to have a high self esteem when I decided to not care about other people opinions and wear the outfits I wanted even if people looked at me or laughed

I started to say whatever I wanted, as weird it could be

And when I did all that I started to be surrounded by a lot of people, it helped me feel loved and confident

Honestly when I started to have difficulties at school it weakened my self esteem because I felt like a failure and psychosis made me scared to go outside because I was hearing disses and laughs

But every time I say self affirmations, do something that scares me and have the courage to do whatever I want no matter people opinions I feel like I help my self esteem to be good

You have to be compassionate with yourself too, if you criticize yourself when you fail it will make you feel low

When I compare myself to others I have esteem issues. When I learned about what I believe in I found good in my ways that would extremely offened others. I try to realize the conflict I have with my self. My esteem is based on my beliefs. And my beliefs are held in high esteem to me. Based on my beliefs I have high esteem for myself and feel highly respected and intelligent for them.

For me it started with taking responsibility for my own life. Accepting all the good and the bad. Not relying on anyone else to fix my life. And facing reality head on

Start wanting to do better for yourself and when you start achieving it your self esteem will grow. My little brothers example not mine.

Oh that’s easy, just become a sociopath!

Haha just kidding, I don’t think that’s possible. More of a birth trait.

To add something of note I would say try to be mindful of what you have that you aren’t entitled to. As a man who spent 5 months in a tiny solitary confinement cell, that’s every meal and every conversation. I don’t know if it’s possible to appreciate things this way without going through the process of losing them temporarily, but it’s the only way I’m able to cope, to me these meals I eat as a free person, which others might consider low budget, are king’s feasts.
