Self-Esteem – Acknowledge Your Abilities to Boost Your Self Image

Time to Take Personal Inventory of Your Talents & Abilities and Boost Your Self-Image!

Self-esteem, regardless of how high or how low, is a powerful driving force in your life. It can hold you back and prevent you from being all that God intends you to be, or it can boldly drive you to a life of success. 

Which just goes to show; you should give great importance to building up your confidence and self-esteem.

One way to do this is to acknowledge your strengths & abilities. Take inventory of what you are good at. We’ve all been given special gifts and talents. Some are more obvious than others.

Those hidden abilities may be discovered by asking ourselves what it is we are passionate about. What is it we desire to do and explore in life? What have we always wanted to do but keep putting off? Maybe learn to play an instrument, write a book, or paint.

“Most of us die with the great secret, with the sealed message which the Creator put in our hands at birth, still unread, because we have never learned how to open or how to read it.”
– Orison Swett Marden

As you acknowledge those things you are personally good at in life, you direct your focus on your positive qualities. Most of us waste way too much time taking inventory of our inabilities. Spend some time acknowledging the gifts and talents you have to offer this world.

We can’t excel in everything, but we can excel in some things. Start cultivating those abilities and talents you are passionate about. You’ll be empowered and see your self-esteem increase as you find ways to build on your strengths.

The simple fact of the matter is; once you discover and tap into your untapped assets, you’ll be able to provide an incalculable service to humanity. You will think more highly of yourself, and you will have more respect and self-confidence in your abilities. You will believe more in yourself. You will stand higher in your own estimate in every way and boost your self-esteem.

May you cultivate your God given talents and experience a life of growing prosperity!

Soar higher,

Self-Esteem – How Do You Celebrate Your Victories and Boost Your Confidence?

Celebrate the Small Daily Victories to Help Boost Your Self-Esteem!

Self-esteem and the self-image we carry of ourselves plays an important part in the success of our lives.

Do you shrink back from attempting things in life because of lack of faith in yourself.  Do you avoid doing those things that will draw attention to you? If so, how can you truly be the success you are capable of?

Learn to celebrate you and the small victories in your life.

We all have the same amount of hours in a day and no one can repeat yesterday. So learn to celebrate the little victories today . . .  

Did you complete that project on time?  Did you maintain your composure when you got cut-off in traffic?  Did you make it to your appointment on time?  Did you use loving words with your spouse instead of the nasty ones that wanted to come out?  Did you speak up and contribute your opinion in the meeting?  Did you tackle that dreaded cleaning project and complete it?  Did you make a good impression in the job interview?  Did you skip that second piece of desert?

Whatever your small victories may be, they are yours and you should celebrate them!

They acknowledge that you are making progress and it helps lift your confidence. Sure, go ahead and celebrate the graduation, the marriage, the baby, the promotion, the new house, and all the other significant milestones in your life. Just remember, it is those small personal victories, that sometimes only you know, that when acknowledged will boost your self-esteem. 

As your confidence gets boosted with your success at the little things, you’ll be amazed at the ease with which you are able to have success with the larger things.

The truth is; you should give great importance to building up your confidence and self-esteem. A lack of confidence in yourself is a poor reflection on the Creator who pronounced everything He made as good. As a child of God you should be victory minded. Lack of faith in yourself is nothing but lack of faith in Him.

Start the ball rolling. Celebrate your small victories in life daily! Increase your confidence and encourage yourself to continue moving onto greater victories. Face life with a self-respecting, confident attitude and a hopeful outlook knowing you are a child of God. Celebrate you, your personal victories and boost your self-esteem.

May your confidence increase and your life abound with growing prosperity!

Cheers to a victorious life,
Brenda

Self-Esteem – 7 Strategies Boost Your Personal Image with Amazing Results!

Boost Your Confidence With These Seven Strategies

Self-esteem and the image we carry of ourselves is a powerful driving force in our lives. Do you lack self-confidence to accomplish things and move yourself ahead in life? Do you feel timid, fearful, and overwhelmingly anxious way to often?

If any of this rings true, then make a choice to start changing things.

The self-image or concept we have of ourselves and the self-respect we give ourselves should be given great attention and importance.

These seven strategies will help boost your image as you begin to discover the powerful, unlimited opportunities within you:

1) Acknowledge your Creator. Know that you are a child of God. Begin to see yourself and your life the way God sees you. You are a child of God and overcome, because greater is He that is in you, than he that is in the world. (1 John 4:4)

2) Meditation and affirmations should be a daily routine. Think and speak what you want. It’s only a matter of time until what you think about and how you see yourself on the inside is what your life will look like on the outside. Example affirmation: God has given me a spirit of power and love and a sound mind. (2 Timothy 1:7)

3) Healthy lifestyle choices provide maximum performance. Having great confidence requires doing the best with the body you’ve been given. Eat right, exercise, monitor what you watch and listen to. Learn to love and laugh often.

4) Acknowledge your strengths & abilities. Take inventory of what you are good at. We’ve all been given special gifts and talents. You’ll be empowered as you find ways to build on your strengths.

5) Celebrate the small victories! Learn to celebrate you and the small victories in life. This helps increase your confidence and encourage you to continue moving onto greater victories.

6) Notice and express the good in others. Acknowledging the positive qualities in others is excellent practice for learning to acknowledge your own positive qualities. And don’t forget, we reap what we sow.  As you are generous in your compliments to others, others will be generous in their compliments to you. A great self-esteem booster!

7) Nip fear in the bud daily. Fear is a great handicap that hinders growth and only allows us to see the negative side of things. Become conscious of fearful thoughts quickly. Memorize some positive affirmations to use as replacements for fearful thoughts that try to attack your mind.

The bottom line is this: Going through life with low self-esteem, feeling like an incapable, unworthy, low-life nobody will simply turn you into that. So let’s agree to put a stop to that today!

One of the greatest things you can do for yourself and others is to uncover the capable, powerful, confident person inside yourself. The real you is just waiting to be discovered. God has a purpose and a plan for your life, made just for you. Live successful and take steps daily to boost your self-esteem.

May you discover your true potential and continue to experience growing prosperity!

Soar higher in Him,
