In a person´s lifetime there will be a time when they believe that they are inadequate, this is quite naturall. Lack of self esteem becomes a problem when you feel that your life is restricted by the way you feel about yourself.
Simply put, self-esteem boils down to how a person feels and views one self. Do you see yourself as special or are you constantly putting yourself down. If one sees him or herself in a positive way then he or she has high self-esteem. On the other hand, if a person has a negative view of him or herself in including his or her abilities, then he or she definitely has low self-esteem.
It may not be so obvious, but self-esteem is a crucial factor for being a success in life or not. How come? Because self-esteem, or the way we view ourselves, including our skills and our talents, affect our thoughts. And these thoughts turn into actions.
Taking action is very important when building self esteem. Actions move us closer to our goals and dreams. If you have dreams and goals in life and you realize that you are not moving towards them then maybe it is because you are not taking any action or you are taking the wrong ones. What most people are not aware of is that thoughts and actions are linked; positive thoughts leads to positive actions in the same way that negative thoughts and views can lead to lack of motivation or negative actions.
Achieving your goals and making your dreams come true naturally takes time. And the thing that can give you the proper drive or push is high self-esteem. Building self-esteem can provide you the determination and personal power needed for you to take actions towards the achievements of your goals. Consequently, low-self esteem is one of biggest blocks to a person's success. Why? Because when a person has low self-esteem it is more difficult for him or her to perform the right actions to achieve their goals.
One of the things that lower self esteem is criticism. The worst kind of criticisms is the one that comes from you. When you always criticize and beat yourself up verbally it can lead to having feelings of uncertainty about yourself.
If there is one biggest killer of abitions known to man it is thinking negatively, nothing can be more destroying. Do not tell yourself that "I can't." or "that's impossible." Instead, believe that anything is conceivable and that you can attain anything.
So how do you build self-esteem? Since thoughts are the roots of feelings and actions then you must always make sure that your thoughts are positive and beneficial. Instead of concentrating on your failures and mistakes, why don't you acknowledge your achievements?
Everyone has his or her own share of accomplishments in life. The best thing that you can do is to get a piece of paper and list down your accomplishments for the last years. Remember all the challenges that you were able to hurdle and the obstacles you have been able to overcome. You will be surprised to know that you have achieved many things in your life already. In moments of great doubt, you can always refer back to this. Always remember that there is a strong association between self-esteem and success, so do anything that you can to improve the quality of your thoughts for your thoughts determine your future success.
