1. Stop your inner critic
Whenever negativity pops up in your mind, shake your head and say no to it. I usually take a very deep breath when I have bad thoughts about myself. Never dwell on your bad thoughts.
2. Write something about yourself that you're proud of
Here's mine:
"I am feeling very confident and pretty. I feel that I know what I offer to men and I don't want to settle with someone less than I deserve. I want to be with someone who realizes I am worthy of his love and who respects me and be kind to me. Take it or leave it. That's my principle of life".
When you're feeling down, take a look at the note and read over and over again.
3. Don't try to be perfect, be "good enough"
Perfectionism is disaster. None is perfect. Everyone has flaws and we should accept the facts.
4. Spend more time with positive people not the negative ones
Befriend kind and caring people. So you will feel loved and cared. That surely will boost your self esteem.
5. Start doing things for others
Give charity, help the poor people, smile to waiters/ waitresses, be nice to your parents and elders, etc. By doing so you will think that the world does not revolve around you. You shift your focus to others not yourself.
6. Remember all things you have achieved
For example mine:
- Being able to swim and teach swimming
- Live independently and help my parents
- Travel to 5 countries and counting
And many more.......
