Self Esteem
Translations available in: English (original) | French | Spanish | Italian | German | Portuguese | Swedish | Russian | Dutch | Arabic

How do you see yourself? you may feel very inadequate, handicapped and disabled. All your life you have been brought up according to the value system of your community and society. Basically, society value beauty, intelligence and brawn ( strength and sporting abilities), power, wealth and the ability to be smarter than others, those unable to fit into these valued abilities are ridiculed and written of.

These sometimes leads to feeling of self pity " I'm no use". Thinking too much about ones inadequacy and inabilities. Inability to accept complements. complaining of being of a lower value or feeling inadequate can lead a person to act inferior.
Identity is found in achievement, in success, in what the world sees as valuable. this sometimes lead people to be unable to rest or be contented. It usually result in difficulty in trusting God. " if God made me this way what have I got to thank him for? it6 is His fault!" it also leads to difficulty in being under authority, a blaring spirit and so on.

The solution lies in discovering who you are, your self worth. Every body can say you are nothing, but the fact can never be established until you give your consent. That reminds me of the words of Eleanor Roosevelt: " no one can make us feel inferior without our permission ".

What people think or say about doesn't matter so much like the opinion you hold about yourself and like Dr. Thomas Daniels would say, " nobody values you more than you value yourself".

God created you and endowed you with so much potential that can take you to whatever height you want to reach in life its' only that you are yet to discover this latest talents, potential, gifts and ability that lies within you.

You can pray now and ask God to help you to help you to discover the you in you and enable you to unleash your potentials for excellence.
