Greetings my wonderful friends,how are you all doing today??? I believe we all are cool. Today I will like to talk about self esteem as I've noticed that it's a major challenge some young people face in our society today.
When I talk about self esteem,it has to do with the way one carries himself or herself. Self esteem for me is the totality of the understanding,believe or mindset one have about himself/herself.
I titled my topic "My self esteem" because I've been in the state of self esteem being a major challenge to me. Self esteem can be in a positive way or in the negative way which is high self esteem or low self esteem.
Do you know that low self esteem births lack of courage which results to shying away from things you can do,comparison,fear and anxiety,isolation,depression and lots more????
Trace back everything that young people pass through in the long run,it's all channeled to low self esteem. I will. Like to illustrate what low self esteem is using a true life story of myself;
During my early years when I was still in primary and secondary school,I was very tiny in appearance,both in height and slow in development. Of course I was from a poor family so I had to limit myself so that people won't notice me and talk trash. All I was doing was avoiding people telling me "Precious you're short,your ugly,you're tiny,you're poor,you don't belong here,we are not in the same class" but guess what despite how much I hid myself the trouble ones will still find me and do the things I hate so much. I easily get intimidated and scared,and I easily get bullied just because I have low self esteem. I condemn and judge myself over nothing and one thing led to another I got depressed from depression I started thinking about suicided but at that verge of commiting suicide i told myself is this worth dying for???? That was the end of it😁😁😁😁.
I started developing myself in all aspects,of course am very smart and intelligent which is one thing I fail to realize all this while but am.glad I discovered myself at a point. Today,no one dares bully me or talk trash because value and high self esteem distinguish the past me and the present me giving nobody room to talk down on me but rather come to me for solutions.
Why did I share this little piece?
Not to get attention or anything special but I just felt like reminding someone that you're unique and special despite the flaws you may think you have there is still something special about you that others don't have,it starts with your self development and change of mindset then self discovery and finally you have a high self esteem.
Just today I saw a friend of mine crying because her boyfriend told her she can never get another guy as good as he is🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣, I felt pity for her because she actually believed what the guy told her because she has low self-esteem and she started feeling bad and depressed about it which if no one stopped her at that moment she might do something stupid.
Am glad I was able to calm her down and lecture her about self esteem.
So many people are in this phase,trust me once you can take it up on yourself and build your self esteem and make it as high as possible,there won't be any room for depression and lots more because you will know your self worth.
Today the little naive girl is called "Ladyofpolicy", nothing changed about her but her mindset changed. If only your mindset about you can change,then everything will automatically change.
I hope this little piece makes a little sense to you friends?
