Every time you are about to put yourself down, please think of this image. Days, months, years tend to pass extremely quickly, and when you get to an older age, the worst thing will be to regret not letting yourself be truly happy. You must, above all else, be on your own side and build … Continue reading Boost of the Day #53: Stop the war with yourself

Boost of the Day #51: Your presence is enough
I was lucky enough to stumble across a great quote today on this fab blog from Sarah. Why do some of us never believe that we are enough just as we are? Whoever you are, whatever you do, no matter what mistakes you may have made, you are good enough. It sounds silly at first, but I would … Continue reading Boost of the Day #51: Your presence is enough
Boost of the Day #50: Date yourself
I'm a strong believer in alone time. It gives you time to understand yourself as a person - your thoughts, your dreams, your fears. The more you do it, the more comfortable you will become with yourself. I took myself out for lunch on Saturday and it was glorious. I travelled alone for five months … Continue reading Boost of the Day #50: Date yourself
Boost of the Day #46: Be strong and walk away
Walking away from somebody, even when you know that person is bad for you, is one of the toughest things to do. But we need to get the strength from somewhere and let go.

Doing this makes you lose your sense of self, and your self is worth too much to lose. Show your true self to the world and even … Continue reading Boost of the Day #44: Tiger vs Sheep
Boost of the day #43: Good, not perfect
I like it when I find a quote related to self esteem from a famous author whose work I have read. I imagine writers can be extremely self-critical and they have to go through so many rejections of their writing before finally getting published. Steinbeck has the right idea here - as soon as you liberate … Continue reading Boost of the day #43: Good, not perfect
Boost of the day #42: No more begging
Have you ever found yourself in a position where someone you like, or even love, is slipping away, ignoring you or treating you disrespectfully? Did you hold your head up high and walk away? I know I haven't always done this. People with low self-esteem often chase and cling onto the idea that a person still has … Continue reading Boost of the day #42: No more begging
Boost of the day #41: Approval over criticism
Maybe this will sound too simple an idea for some, but I'm telling you it's been working for me. I feel like I have made real progress of late boosting my self-esteem, just by deciding to stop being horrible to myself. No more belittling myself when I make a mistake, no more slagging off my … Continue reading Boost of the day #41: Approval over criticism
