How to Have a Strong Sense of Self and Build Self-Esteem

Remember, building a strong sense of self and self-esteem is a gradual process. Be patient with yourself and celebrate small victories along the way. It requires self-reflection, self-compassion, and a willingness to embrace your true self. By consistently practicing these strategies and nurturing your sense of self, you can cultivate a stronger self-esteem and a deeper sense of self-worth.

I enjoyed this. I think all I would add is that you need to accomplish things to have self-esteem. I think what you accomplish is up to each individual, but it is important to be able to point to something and say, well if I did X then I can do Y as well.

Yes, it rang true to me as well.

Having recently finished reading Atomic Habits, I am kinda pumped and I’m working on several fronts to improve my quality of life:

  • keeping a journal
  • light exercise in the morning
  • reading a few pages every day
  • brushing my teeth before going to sleep

All of the above were needed and wanted, but I just couldn’t bring myself to start. Atomic Habits is the book that tipped me over the edge :wink:
