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. When you walk away from someone who doesn't value you, you are making it clear that you deserve people in your … Continue reading Boost of the Day #46: Be strong and walk away

30 Day Self Esteem Challenge: Day Ten
Day Ten: Why are you the way you are? I find this a slightly odd question but I'm rolling with it... I'm the way I am because of everything in my past and present. I'm a perfectionist because getting 100% in exams used to be the way I received praise from others. I'm polite and … Continue reading 30 Day Self Esteem Challenge: Day Ten
Boost of the Day #45: Don’t be defined by your shell
Who would make more of an impact - would you prefer someone to call you pretty or witty? Slim or passionate?

30 Day Self Esteem Challenge: Day Eight
Day Eight: The last time you smiled when someone complimented you. What was the compliment and why did you smile?

Boost of the Day #44: Tiger vs Sheep
Why do we worry so much about what others' think? It's incredibly easy to mould into someone who you barely recognise, just to fit in or please others. 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
30 Day Self-Esteem Challenge: Day Four
Day four: A habit you have that you like I'm unnaturally early to everything. I sat outside the shops this morning on a park bench for 15 minutes because I arrived before opening time (luckily it was sunny). For my last interview, I sat in a dodgy park on the phone to my mum for … Continue reading 30 Day Self-Esteem Challenge: Day Four

I don't give up easily and I keep trying until I eventually … Continue reading 30 Day Self Esteem Challenge: Day Three
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
30 Day Self-Esteem Challenge: Day 2
Day Two: A physical feature I like about myself It feels weird typing this, but I really like my bum. It can be annoying having one that's a little on the large side and not in proportion to my waist. My struggle of trouser shopping can be long and painful (literally when they get stuck at my … Continue reading 30 Day Self-Esteem Challenge: Day 2
