Self-esteem- The importance of having high self esteem

Self-esteem, is a noun for the realistic respect for or favourable impression of oneself and self-respect. Essentially it is your own impression of yourself based on your aspects, we all have some form of self-esteem which spectrums across positive to negative. And self-esteem varies between certain days, and you may have different levels of self-esteem based on the context. Some may have a high self-esteem when doing certain skills, while may be more insecure in other tasks. Yet in today’s clarity blog we will be discussing self-esteem in general, and why you should always try and keep a high self-esteem.

Think of someone who may have an incredible high self-esteem. It can be anyone who springs to head first, a celebrity, family member, teacher. Consider why they have a high self-esteem, what have they done to gain that impression of themselves. And what sort of mindset they hold. For instance, Beyoncé has an incredible high self-esteem since she is an incredible talented singer, choreographer and artist. One may think it’s that persons looks, privileges in life that build self-esteem. When in all reality it is proving that you are of value to the universe. Beyoncé knows she valuable because of her talents, a duke will amount their self-esteem with how much possession he has proving that he is valuable. In whatever form

Now think about yourself. How do you prove yourself valuable to offers, what skills do you offer to offers? For instance, you may be an incredible honest and up front person, the value you have to the world is that you're speaking your mind and changing others ideas. Or you could be incredible knowledgeable in a particular field in history, your value lies in your knowledge. It is not physical or material things, it is quality’s he has and have developed which make us unique in ourselves. Often we are praised for our quality’s, those qualities’ we are outwardly praised for is the quality’s our timidity builds on to produce a high self-esteem on that particular thing. And when self- esteem is built in that way, it can be easily altered. It can change depending on circumstances around us. So it is up to ourselves to praise ourselves for our best quality’s. And remind ourselves of it even when it is not recognised often by others. Carry it like a badge.

The importance of having a high self-esteem is vital in areas of life such as interaction, performance and how we carry ourselves. Don’t mistake having a high self- esteem as arrogance. Since arrogance is based on a physical and material level. While self – esteem is self-fuelled, we pick out our own quality’s and build upon them. Simple techniques such as sitting up straight or speaking clearly with others can help give short boost. Metaphorically your self-esteem is like the cloths you wear, it is how you choose to present yourself to others. Like what you wear can be effected by the people around you, so can your self –esteem.
