Find Your Self-worth
Do you measure your personal self-worth based on what others think of you? Do you work really hard to make others like or support you? Do you lack confidence? Increasing self image will help build your confidence and your personal self-worth. So how?
Pay attention to your body language. How you hold your physical body has an effect on how others see you and on how you personally feel. Similarly, how you feel often determines your body language and your outward behavior. A simple way is to check your body language. Stand tall with your head held high, shoulders squared, back straight and legs solid; you will feel more in control.
Develop your own measuring stick Don't let others influence your view of success or happiness. Take time out to recognize your achievements no matter how big or small they are. Keep track of your achievements and proud moments in a journal. If you keep a personal journal or even a work journal, start writing in the journal from back to front keeping track of all the little and big things that happen every day.
Here's a simple exercise you can do to gain a richer way of thinking on how you are sensed by others. Start by taking a close look at yourself and create a list of your unique strengths. Who are you? Ask friends, families to share with you what they see as your key characteristics.
