Week Four Building Self-Esteem Audio Message

Building Self-Esteem

Building self-esteem leads to independence, happiness, flexibility, the ability to adapt easily to change and a positive outlook on any situation. Unhealthy or low self-esteem on the other hand leads only to irrational thoughts, unhappiness, and fear of the new, rigidity, defensiveness and a negative outlook on life in general.

You know that your self-worth has nothing to do with checking your bank balance, it is about you, the person you are in life. We give others respect, love and consideration but how often do we give ourselves what is due? How you value yourself is based on the self-esteem you have, your self-esteem shows you how much you truly value yourself.

How we see ourselves has a lot to do with how others see us, if we are happy, smiling and full of confidence then others see us as someone they want to be around. If we respect ourselves and portray this then others will respect you too. After all, how can you ask for respect from others if you don't even respect yourself? Are you ready to build the self-esteem and confidence needed to achieve the promotion at work and receive the respect you deserve? Download Building Self-Esteem now! -Tyler Woods PH.D.

The Building Self-Esteem Guidebook is truly my favorite, I feel that being proud of who you are will help you excel in all your endeavors. Before you read the guidebook part I suggest you think about a time when you where having negative thoughts. Please complete the sentences below:

I was really negative about

I feel my negativity was brought on by

I stop being negative when

Looking back I feel

Please keep the above in mind as you complete the Building Self-Esteem Guidebook. As always take your time, reflect on what you read, discuss it with someone you trust. This is enough for the day or perhaps two.

Part 2 Working Through Feelings

As you begin to use the methods in the self-esteem guidebook you may notice that you have some feelings of resistance to positive feelings about yourself. Please try not to worry too much about this. It is Normal. What is important is that you don't allow these feelings from stopping you from having a positive outlook about yourself. Please think about listening to the audio that is for positive self-esteem and listen to it several times a day while you work on this guidebook.

I have a little exercise I would like you to do.

First, look at the clock and give yourself about 10 minutes or note the time on your watch or a clock. Now get a piece of paper and write your name on the top of the paper. Look at it, this name represents you. Now I would like you to write everything you can think of that is positive about yourself. You can include special qualities, talents, and achievements. Don't worry about spelling or grammar and by all means don't be organized. Write down whatever comes to mind.

It will be important to keep away from making negative statements or using any negative words. Now when you see the ten minutes has passed, stop writing and read it to yourself. You may feel a little awkward at first and some people even feel sad when they read it. This is because it is a different and positive way of thinking about you. In fact, it is probably a way that contradicts some of the negative thoughts you may have had about yourself.

Don't worry. Those feelings will lessen as your reread this paper. Now read the paper a few times and put it in a convenient place because I want you to read it several times a day throughout the entire week of the self-esteem guidebook.
