Was watching a movie earlier today, and I realized the negative effects having a low self worth has on people. Linda, the main character never took advantage of so many opportunities because she thought she wasn’t deserving of anything good.
Unfortunately, like Linda, there are several people who think poorly of themselves and this has impacted their lives negatively. Let me remind you dear one, you can do & get anything you want. You are deserving of it! Some practical ways to build your self worth are;
- Learn to love and accept yourself for who you are: take out time to think about your strengths, weaknesses, flaws, likes and dislikes and accept what you can’t change.
- Constantly reaffirm yourself; When faced with situations that attempt to make you think less of yourself, speak positive words to yourself. ‘I am good enough’, ‘I deserve respect’, ‘I can..etc’
- Make yourself a priority: Choose what’s best for you over pleasing people. It doesn’t make you selfish.
Also remember, this change won’t happen overnight, it requires you to consistently decide you deserve the best.
From me to you, darling, you are deserving of it all!
