The Only True: Know Nothing 

What’s the most important thing about the universe that most of us don’t know and that we should?That the atoms in our body, the nitrogen, the iron, the carbon, all of this, are traceable to cosmic crucibles, deep in the centers of stars. The star manufactures them by thermonuclear fusion; and when it explodes, it scatters that enrichment into gas clouds that make the next generation of star systems, such as we.So it is not like we are out in the universe, looking up and saying “I am alive in this universe, but I feel small”. No: the universe is alive within us; and we should feel large.

“The universe is alive within us; and we should feel large.”

Mastering Self-Care: Unveiling the Art of Attraction

Self-esteem is the vital ingredient for success and happiness in our lives. When we lose it, our self-belief disappears and everything starts to go wrong.

Self-Esteem: Vital Ingredient for Success and Happiness

If people speak negatively about themselves and are continually bringing themselves down, it doesn't take long before we are agreeing with them. When we bring ourselves down, our self-esteem falls lower and lower. Instead, when you say positive things about yourself, you increase your self-respect and so others treat you with respect, which in turn increases your self-esteem.

Tip #1: Say Positive Things about Yourself

Poor self-image means low self-esteem. Start to appreciate something about your appearance. Begin to admire an aspect of your appearance and you will gradually learn how to appreciate other things about yourself.

Tip #2: Change a Poor Self-Image

Protect your positive feelings and self-esteem and stay away from grumpy people.

Tip #3: Stay Away from Grumpy People

When we are low in self-esteem, this self-hate just takes us even lower. Be your own best friend. Talk to yourself the way you would to your very best friend.

Tip #4: Be Your Own Best Friend

We are so self-critical, we treat ourselves badly and can find so many things 'wrong' ourselves.<ul><li>Change our negative beliefs about ourselves by training our minds to believe positive things instead.</li><li>Make a positive affirmation for yourself.</li></ul>

Tip #5: Change Your Negative Self-Beliefs

We can all look back and regret our actions but we can not change the past.<ul><li>Stop blaming yourself.</li><li>Let go of the past.</li><li>Look forward towards a positive future.</li></ul>

Tip #6: Look Forward and Not Back

Do you ever feel you are being taken for granted by people? This might be because you are doing things that you really don't want to but you just can't say 'no'.You are not a victim with a low self-esteem unless you are choosing to be one.

Tip #7: Stop Being a Victim

Our clothes can be so much part of our image. Living in the past is not good for your own feelings of self-respect and self-worth.Clear out your closet and your mind of the old memories that hold you back.

Tip #8: Throw Out Your Old Clothes

Do you ever find that you just don't seem to have any time for yourself? Do something just for yourself.

Tip #9: Take Some Time Just for Yourself

Think of something that you need to do but you keep putting off for some reason. Make a list of these jobs. Now choose one thing on the list and do it!When we know that we have things to do but keep finding excuses not to do them, we begin to lose our self-respect.We can spend much more energy thinking about doing something and then not doing it and then not liking ourselves for not doing it than it takes to actually do it.

Tip #10: Do What You've Got to Do

<ul><li>If you feel ill at ease using the phone or you have a particularly difficult call to make, do it standing up.</li><li>Smile into the phone.</li></ul>

Tip #11: Make an Assertive Phone Call

If we eat things that unsuitable for us, we will not feel our best. Eating sensibly for a day is a great way to boost your self-esteem.

Tip #12: Eat Well for a Day

Very often we allow ourselves to become worked up about something that really doesn't matter.

Tip #13: Ask Yourself 'Does it Really Matter?'

We are more tan our minds. We are mind, body, and spirit. We can only really feel at peace when we are contacting the spiritual part of our nature.

Tip #14: Clear Your Mind

We can only get what we want if we ask for what we want. Start saying exactly what you mean and asking for what you want, instead of just giving an ambiguous code.

Tip #15: Say What You Mean

Take your smile for a walk, practice it in the presence of others. The effect can be quite dramatic.

Tip #16: Smile and the World Smiles with You

We can not change the weather. Don't allow yourself to become victimized by something that you can not change. This is a classic case of self-victimization.

Tip #17: Never Mind the Weather

What is it that you would like to do to change your life in some way? What are the risks involved?

Tip #18: Take a Risk

Who do you appreciate in your life? Have you told them? If not, then tell them.

Tip #19: Tell Someone How Much You Appreciate Them

<ul><li>If you feel that you have behaved badly or made a serious mistake, then apologize and try to put the situation right.</li><li>When you have done the best you can, that is indeed the best you can do.</li></ul>

Tip #20: Stop Blaming Yourself

Many people with low confidence levels actually feel threatened by people who appear to be successful and so choose to spend time with people who are in an even worse situation than themselves. Success attracts success, just as negativity attracts negativity.

Tip #21: Associate with Successful People

Sometimes it can be very hard to decide whether your needs come before or after the needs of someone else.

Tip #22: Draw Your Line in the Sand

Looking for something new encourages our natural curiosity, inquisitiveness, and interest.

Tip #24: get in Touch with Nature

Your desire to make the best use of your time depends upon how much you value it.

Tip #25: Manage Your Time

Our feelings are important but sometimes we deny them because we are afraid of what people might think of us. You may be in a close relationship with someone who has denied their feelings for so long that they don't even know what they are feeling any more.

Tip #26: Give Yourself Some 'Feeling Checks'

The person you finally scream at has usually had absolutely nothing to do with the small stress-inducing items that have built up to create your volcano of anger.Let go of stress as quickly as you can.

Tip #27: Scream Your Head Off

Instead of saying, "I've got a problem." Say, "How can I face this challenge?"

Tip #28: Replace the Word 'Problem' with the Word Challenge

Spend a day listening to everyone you meet rather than talking to them.

Tip #29: Listen for a Day

We are creatures of the earth, and that is where our roots lie. Sometimes we forget our true beginnings and then we become nervous, stressed, and afraid.

Tip #30: Ground Yourself

Why can one person create new directions for her/himself whilst another always seems to be the victim of circumstances?

Tip #31: Make Something Happen

Look in the mirror, look deeply into your own eyes and tell yourself how much you love and value yourself.

Tip #32: Look in the Mirror

Regular exercise is a great self-esteem booster and is probably one of the easiest ways to gain confidence in our bodies and our abilities.

Tip #33: Start Some Physical Exercise

The state of forgiveness increases self-esteem.Forgiveness doesn't mean that we think that it's OK for anybody to do anything to us. Forgiveness is all about letting go.

Tip #34: Forgive Someone

A negative attitude attracts negative people and events into your life. Expect the worst and it will happen; you will 'prove' your expectations to be true.Positivity attracts positivity. Expect the best and it will happen.

Tip #35: Expect the Best

Tip #36: Breathe Deeply

It's amazing how quickly our interest in life can be recaptured when we encourage ourselves to be creative.

Tip #37: Create Something

Perhaps we are finding it difficult to accept the truth and so we deny it. Be true to yourself always.

Tip #38: Be True to Yourself

Our body language reflects what we are feeling. If we look more assertive, we feel more assertive and others will respond to our new feelings of self-respect.

Tip #39: Watch Your Body Language

Choose a relatively short-term goal, write an action plan which will describe how you are to attain your goal, and then activate your plan. Action plans for the short term lead to self-confidence and self-esteem to plan for more ambitious and far-reaching goals.

Tip #40: Write Your Action Plan

When we speak badly about other people, we change the way that we feel abour ourselves.

Tip #41: Speak Well of Others

'No' is such a small word, but it seems to be one of the hardest words for us to use. Practice saying 'no'. Whenever you are feeling victimized, you are in low self-esteem and you need to say 'no' to somebody.

Tip #42: Say 'No' When You Want to

Remember that if you are allowing yourself to feel guilt, you will be low in self-esteem.

Tip #43: Let Go of Guilt

We are built for mental, physical, emotional, and spiritual activity. Creativity and high self-esteem depend upon the balance of these activities.

Tip #44: Balance Yourself

Your intuition gives you important information and speaks to you through urges, feelings, and flashes of insight.

Tip #45: Trust Your Intuition

No matter how depressed you feel, there will always be something that you can appreciate. Do and look for it! Find it!

Tip #46: Make an Appreciation List

Excessive 'doing' can lead us to feel that we are running around a hamster's wheel and that we can not get off.

Tip #47: Learn to Be

Negativity breeds depression and low energy levels. Positivity brings interest, motivation, and the power to make changes.

Tip #48: Focus on Your Strengths

Hidden feelings don't go away, they have to be hidden somewhere. We hide them inside ourselves and they cause us pain and misery and low self-esteem.

Tip #49: Let Go of Your Suppressed Feelings

You really can "get away from it all" and come back feeling refreshed without anyone ever knowing that you left.

Tip #50: Go on Holiday

Reach for the stars, take a risk, be courageous and act. Your self-esteem will rise in direct proportion to the personal risks that you are prepared to take.

Tip #51: Start Today to Make Your Dreams Come True

Tip #52: Create Success for Yourself

We can encourage and empower our children by supporting them in a positive way.

Tip #53: Teach Your Children Well

You are unique. There never has and there never will be another person on the planet who is just like you. This makes you original and special.

Tip #54: Remember That You are Unique

When we are low in self-esteem, we are inclined to take  ourselves for too seriously.

Tip #55: Do the "You Can't Make Me" Swing

You are feeling totally protected. You know that nothing and no one can harm you when you are inside your beautiful bubble.

Tip #56: Step into a Bubble

We teach people they way we want them to treat us. This means that if people are using you as a doormat, then this is because you have let them do so.

Tip #57: Be Assertive

If we are low it feels impossible to believe that we really are special, worthy, and lovable. But of course it is always true.

Tip #58: Make a List of Positive Affirmations

Remember that you can change your life and you can create self-esteem, however impossible this may seem to you at the moment.

Tip #59: Break a Habit

Never doubt that you are progressing in your quest for self-esteem and know that all the love and support you need will always be with you.

60 Tips For Self Esteem

Self-judgment refers to the process of evaluating oneself, which can include recognizing strengths, weaknesses, and areas for improvement.- It doesn't inherently carry a negative connotation. Self-judgment can be neutral or positive when approached with a balanced and constructive mindset.- Purpose: Constructive self-judgment can be a healthy mechanism for self-reflection and personal growth. It involves acknowledging both strengths and areas that may need development.

Self-Judgment

Self-criticism involves a more negative and harsh evaluation of oneself. It often includes focusing on perceived flaws, mistakes, or shortcomings.- It typically carries a negative and self-disparaging tone. Self-criticism tends to undermine one's self-worth and can lead to feelings of inadequacy or unworthiness.- Impact: Persistent self-criticism can contribute to stress, anxiety, and a negative impact on mental health. It may hinder personal development rather than fostering growth.

Self-Criticism

- It's crucial to strike a balance in self-judgment, avoiding excessive self-criticism. Recognizing areas for improvement while maintaining a positive and compassionate perspective is key.- Constructive self-reflection involves acknowledging mistakes without allowing them to define one's sense of self-worth. It's about learning from experiences rather than harshly criticizing oneself.

Balancing Self-Judgment

- Developing self-compassion involves treating oneself with kindness and understanding, especially during challenging times.- Instead of harsh self-criticism, practicing self-compassion involves recognizing that everyone makes mistakes and faces difficulties.

Cultivating Self-Compassion

Self-judgment can be a valuable tool for personal growth when approached with balance and positivity. On the other hand, excessive self-criticism is generally counterproductive and can have negative effects on mental well-being. Striving for a healthy and compassionate self-view is essential for overall emotional health. If self-criticism becomes overwhelming, seeking support from friends, family, or a mental health professional can be beneficial.

The Keys: Balance and positivity

Self-judgment and self-criticism are related concepts, but they differ in their underlying tones and potential impacts on an individual's well-being.
