I
was thinking about what I like about myself and what traits I am working to improve.
What are the common threads that have added to my self-esteem? What I have
found – is the more I care about others; the more I care about myself.
Think
about a person whose personality appeals to you. Someone you find very
likeable. What do you like most about this person? I’d be willing to bet that
it isn't physical appearance or achievements, but rather the way
he or she treats others.
If
it’s a healthy self-esteem you desire, treat others well. The way you treat
others makes you likable, even to yourself.
If
there is something you’d like to improve about yourself, take baby steps to make changes. It’s healthy to make adjustments and grow… just be certain
to like yourself along the way.
And
remember, the more you care about others the more you'll be able to care about
yourself.
Peace to you and yours -
Jackie
