I love this quote: "In the spirit world, there is no time." Spiritual teacher Stuart Wilde often says, "We have all the time in the world." Learn from the past, honour the past, but live in the now and delight in what is to come.
Here are three things you can do to raise your
self-esteem and self-worth:
1. Have more compassion for yourself.
Know that your past 'failures' are in the past and everyone makes mistakes or has bad judgment at some time or another and learn from those times.
2. Find your personal strengths.
Make a list of all of the things that you love about yourself - those things that make you unique and special, such as your sexy long legs, gorgeous shiny hair, your fabulous sense of humour, your amazing singing voice, six pack abs or killer smile. If there is something that you aren't so crazy about, be more accepting, or find a way to change it. If you need to lose a few pounds, exercise more. If you hate that mole on your chin, have it removed, or learn to love it!
3. Avoid comparing yourself with others.
With all of the images in the media showing us that we should be super skinny and wealthy, sometimes we compare ourselves and feel that we aren't good enough. Keep in mind that those often air brushed images are just out there to make money and that you are so special. Just enjoy being you!
As you increasingly learn to value and love yourself, you will discover your patience increasing as you work on the things that you want to accomplish and experience. And because you will be happy with yourself and your life, this will not be too difficult to do.
Make a list of things that you love about yourself!
