SELF ESTEEM ILLUSTRATION

 




Striving to improve our self esteem is on everybody's mind. It does not matter if you actively pursue this goal or you subconsciously working on improving your self esteem. The problem with this is that you really don't know exactly what you want to improve. You are acting intuitively on external signals.

Do you know how to improve your self esteem? Probably Not. To make it a little bit easier for you and to and to achieve your goals quicker I put together some tips that you can utilize right away.

> Build up your self esteem. you must take an inventory. What do you want to improve or change about the way you interact with others? Try to make only one change at time. Always check your progress before making another change.

> Celebrate your journey , not your destination. Learn to always feel good about where you are now, and exclude self-confidence about anywhere you might find yourself tomorrow.

>Set clear goals for yourself before every interaction. Know what you want. Think about how the people you will be meeting can help you reach those goals. Then decide how to approach each person accordingly . Apply this regularly and you will notice a difference.

> Be proactive. Take the initiative. Be decisive. Let the other person know exactly how he or she can help you. Proactive people tent to be more successful in their career.

> Treat each person you meet as if he or she is truly important.








>Give him a firm handshake; look the other person straight in the eye. Practice both of these. Your handshake should be just right. Not too firm not too close. Train yourself to notice something you like or find attractive in the person.

> Listen !Listen! Listen!. Teach yourself to develop a good listening skills. Learn a way to remember the other person's name. If in doubt simply ask for the name again  2 or 3 sentences into the conversation.

>Visibly respond to the other person. Smile, nod agreement and address him or her by name. Apply all your listening to visibly respond. The body language is the most important part of conversation. Practice, Practice, practice..

>Pay more attention to other person then to yourself. Are you responding to what maybe going on in his or her life? Don't filter out bad news. Put yourself in the other persons' shoes. Be caring.

> Stay " in the moment'. Don't mentally cut off the other person. Don't reload while he or she is speaking . What this means is that you need to focus on the other person 100% during a coversation. Anything less is considered rude.

But it is true. I don't experience jealousy as an emotion. I experience sadness, happiness, anger, euphoria, and a plethora of emotions, but not jealousy. Why?
