1. Think about what you have already done in your life

Even if you experienced failure and unhappiness in your life, there certainly are a few achievements.

These need not be great achievements, but quite simple ones, such as getting good grades at school or college, promotion at work, getting along well with your neighbors, getting your driving license, or learning to swim.

Thinking about those achievements makes you realize that you have experienced success in your life, and not all is failure.

This would make you feel better about yourself and about your life, and improve your self-esteem.
