Everyone has a purpose in life, but it can be hard to achieve that purpose or even any goals if you have low self-esteem. It's true what they say; people are their own worst enemies. In some form or another, the average person battles with self-esteem. It may be one small feature, their performance, but it can go far beyond that. Plus, low self-esteem usually comes from reasons such as poor relationships, bullying, and trauma. It can also be high if one has a strong support system around them and they have had some form of success in life.
The key to overcoming low self-esteem is building up your confidence by cultivating skills that will help you succeed in any situation. Here are some ways that anyone can do this:
Everybody has their own strengths and weaknesses. You just need to remember that not every weakness you have makes you not worthy. Honestly, it's further from the case. Those little imperfections are what make you who you are. However, it's fine if there are some things you want to change about yourself. Everyone has something they want to change about themselves.
It's normal; it may be going to a dentist for white teeth, working out more, getting more sleep, or just treating others with more kindness. Self-improvement is great as long as it's not something you want to obsess over.
This also includes accepting what you've done in life so far, it's not always going to be perfect! It's easy to fall into the trap of comparing yourself to others, thinking that you have to be perfect to be accepted. What if you stopped trying so hard? Maybe it would make your life easier. Maybe you wouldn't feel such immense pressure all the time. Nowadays, everyone wants to be perfect, but why not instead accept who you already are? It will make it easier for you.
