Even if you occasionally notice ypour good qualities you may discount or forget them, or see them as exceptions rather than as a true reflection of who you are. You might think ,\u2019I know the meal I made was nice, but anyone could have done it, probably better \u2018. Unsurprisingly these biases against yourself will naturally affect your mood, energy and motivation and make you feel that you are not worth treating with consideration . Learning to value your good points will help you to do yourself justice and develop the feeling that it is okay to be you.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><span class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-purple-color\"><span style=\"text-decoration:underline;\">Article 2<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><span class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-purple-color\"><span class=\"uppercase\"><span style=\"text-decoration:underline;\">Watch out for&#8221;Yes,but&#8230;&#8217;s<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><span class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-cyan-blue-color\">If your low self-esteem is well embedded , the idea of appreciating your positive qualities may seem entirely alien to you. As you try out the strategies outlined below, you will almost certainly have thoughts along the lines of&#8221;Yes,but&#8230;&#8221; : Yes ,but that would be boasting !&#8221; Yes, but suppose other people don&#8217;t agree ? &#8216; Yes, I am generous , but only sometimes .&#8217; These will seem more convincing and belieevable when your mood is low. Yes, but &#8230;.&#8217;s may seem like barriers to progress , but in the fact they are extremely useful . Every time you notice one, you are in the fact catching something that keeps you stuck in low self-esteem , right in front of your very eyes . Yes, but &#8230;. &#8216;s are actually helping you to find out more about yourself. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><span class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-purple-color\"><span style=\"text-decoration:underline;\">Identifying good points <\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><span class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-cyan-blue-color\">It is a good idea to use a notebook for this exercise. Try making a list of your positive qualities. How many come to mind will vary from person to person. If your low self-esteem is not there all the time, or is not very strong , then you might be able to come up with ten or even twenty positive qualities , after giving yourself time to reflect . If your low self-esteem is persistent and long standing , and no one taught you to value yourself and treat yourself respectfully , you may find it difficult to think of even one .<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>I will complete in article 3 soon. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"jetpack-simple-payments-wrapper jetpack-simple-payments-10802\"><div class=\"jetpack-simple-payments-product\"><div class=\"jetpack-simple-payments-product-image\"><div class=\"jetpack-simple-payments-image\"><figure><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/mind55555.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/002-3-1-2-1-2-2-1-2-1-1-2-2-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-2-1-1-2-1-1-1-2-1-1-1-1-2-1-1-2-1-1-1-1-1-2-2-1-2-2-2-1-1.jpg?w=616&#038;ssl=1\" \/><\/figure><\/div><\/div><div class=\"jetpack-simple-payments-details\"><div class=\"jetpack-simple-payments-title\"><p>BUY ONLINE MY ROMANTIC COMEDIC PLAY BOOK<\/p><\/div><div class=\"jetpack-simple-payments-description\"><p>IT IS SOLD ON GOOGLE PLAY BOOKS (eBook) \u00a318.95 with discount.\nPaperback without discount \u00a3 38.95 <\/p><\/div><div class=\"jetpack-simple-payments-price\"><p>\u00a318.95<\/p><\/div><a class=\"jetpack-simple-payments-purchase\" href=\"https:\/\/psychotherapy-londons.com\/?p=10796\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Click here to purchase.<\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Article 1 Being sel-critical helps to keep low self-esteem going , but is only one half of the equatipobn .
