Self Criticism After The Defeat PDF Download

Can I ask you a few questions? Do you find that you focus heavily on your weaknesses or perceived flaws? Do you often unfavorably compare yourself with others? Are you anxious around other people, concerning yourself with what they think of you? Do you put your wants and needs on the back burner to please others? These traits - along with many others - are symptoms of low self-esteem. Living life feeling inadequate and unworthy and having persistent feelings of guilt is challenging, particularly in a world that happily spoon-feeds us inadequacy, soul-crushing comparisons, and self-limiting beliefs. This can make finding your worth seem impossible. Life doesn't have to be this way. In The Low Self-Esteem Struggle, I want to take you on a journey toward self-worth. I can't promise it'll be easy - nothing worth having ever is - but freeing yourself of the shackles of your mind is blissfully empowering. The journey includes: Figuring out the cause of your low self-esteem. You cannot defeat something so deep-rooted without knowing its origins. To face these traumatic demons will feel daunting - but they're not as intimidating as enduring your whole life with a poor self-image. My lack of esteem came from childhood abuse, but there is no one set cause for low self-esteem. It could have been schoolyard bullies, a toxic relationship, a cruel boss... or all these terrible circumstances that triggered your lack of self-worth. We'll return to the root of your trauma and build up from there. Defeating negative self-talk. When you talk poorly about yourself to yourself, you're reaffirming these thoughts to be the truth. I'll explain why they're not the truth, why you shouldn't talk badly of yourself, and how you can stop doing this. Self-deprecation - even as a joke - is a form of negative self-talk. The subconscious doesn't have a sense of humor, so even when you're "joking," your mind doesn't view it that way. I'll help you reframe your thoughts so you can banish negative self-talk. Social comparison toxicity. I'll cover how social comparison is an unforgiving thief of self-esteem, how to acknowledge this, and how to reframe your need for validation. When I was silently enduring the effects of low self-esteem, books were my lifeline, a glimmer of hope in my otherwise murky mind. I want this book to reach you and be the beginning of your journey to breaking free from the tight grip of low self-esteem. Don't let low self-esteem hold you back from the life you deserve for one day longer.
