Confidence and Self Esteem
Author: adminIf you are confident about your abilities, then you have high self-esteem. This is not something you are born with but rather developed and with it, you can be a winner.
But how do you get it? Well, you start to build it up the moment you are born. If they raised you right, you will know what is right from wrong.
One way you will learn about that is to get disapproval sometimes for tasks that were not done properly. You can also get it for doing something that you were not supposed to do but if this was explained properly, you will know that this is something that must never be done. This will enable you to have good decision making skills because there are consequences for everything you do.
So you are confident to take certain risks, your parents will encourage you try things and then be there if things don’t work out. This will already teach you a little about your limitations and you will soon learn more of that in the future.
From here, you already get the idea that building your self-esteem is not always about winning. Sometimes you have to lose and face a few setbacks to make you a better person.
