You’re A Lump Of Coal
3 Simple Ways to Boost Your Self-Esteem and Win Over Depression
I’m sure you’ve felt bad about yourself from time to
time. These feelings of low self-esteem are often
caused by poor treatment by other people, or by
your own judgment of yourself.
It happens to a lot of us. That’s usually how it normally goes.
However, some people suffer low self-esteem constantly.
This is usually true if you experience depression or
other similar problems.
Typically you will go through life feeling bad about
yourself, even when it isn’t necessary. You wind up
not enjoying life, not do the things you want to do,
or not being able to work towards your goals.
In short, you are incapacitated from doing anything.
At the same time, low self-esteem is a symptom of
depression, which in turn is a symptom of something
else.
Depending on who you ask, low-self esteem is
caused by depression or depression is caused by
low self-esteem.
Regardless of which train of thought you subscribe
to, it can’t bee denied that low self-esteem is related
to depression.
It also can’t be denied that this affects a huge
number of individuals.
However, you can do things that will not only build up
your self-esteem, but at the same time get rid of your
depression.
********************************************************************
Let me show these simple things you can do right away
so you can boost your self-esteem and get a head’s up
against depression.
The good thing is, you can do these things everyday.
1) Focus on yourself.
That is to say, pay attention to what you want and
need. By that I mean, listen to what your body is
saying. If you feel it wants you to take a long walk,
do so.
If you feel you need someone to talk to seek out a
friend and hang-out.
This also means to need to take care of yourself.
Eat healthy, exercise, do physical activities.
Take the time to enjoy things that you want to do.
Start or finish a project that you’ve been holding off
doing.
Spend for yourself – buy clothes or even a complete
wardrobe. Just don’t overdo it of course or you may
wind up doing more harm than good.
Basically, make it a point to treat yourself well everyday.
********************************************************************
2) Be positive about yourself.
Get rid of all those negative thoughts and bombard
yourself with positive reinforcements. By that I mean
give yourself affirmations.
Repeat these positive words over and over in your
mind, or say it out loud to yourself.
If you want write it down for you to read or to hang
in your home where you can easily see it.
This will take time and patience. But slowly but surely
you’ll notice that after a while all your negativity will
be transformed into positive energy.
********************************************************************
3) Party it up socially.
Remember that famous line: “no man is an island,
entire of itself…”
Just as it says, you can’t do it all just by yourself.
We are social creatures. We long for companions
to interact with.
Go outside. Seek out your friends. Refresh your contact
with the rest of the human race.
Friends and families are the best medicines out there -
for any and all kinds of ailment.
And do they work wonders, especially if you’re feeling
down.
********************************************************************
As you build your self-esteem you’ll feel better and
you’ll see that you are enjoying life more than you
did before. In fact you’ll even see that you’re doing
more of the things you have always wanted to do.
Your happiness gives you your positive self-esteem.
This in turn gives you your health. Depression and
loneliness cannot enter your mind if you have the
high walls of your positive self-esteem standing guard.
This can help you make use of the power of
affirmations in order to charge your everyday
life with the positivism that will help you stave
off the fear of the darkness so you don’t fall victim
to your negative environment.
