Here’s what you can (and should) do to overcome low self-esteem:
- Do what you like. Everyone has his/her favorite thing to do. When you allow yourself to busy yourself with what you like, you will instantly feel more self-confident, because you do what you are good at;
- Help other people. Nothing improves self-esteem more than mere, unselfish helping others. Do nice things for other people – and remember, those things shouldn’t necessarily be “big”, “significant”, “very important”, etc. Small favors will do, too. And, most often, it will cost you nothing;
- Identify your strengths. There is no one who has not a single strength. We all are good at something. Find it in you – sit, think, and remember what you are really good at. Once you find your strength(s), develop them – and you will have what to take pride in;
- Don’t tolerate disrespect. There are no reasons why people may take the liberty of being rude with you. Everybody must know that he/she should treat you with respect. Make sure everyone knows it. And if somebody never could understand it, just cut him/her out of your life;
- Forget about your melancholic friends. Such people are almost always unhappy, and their unhappiness is contagious – so, interacting with them, you will most probably end up just as unhappy. Keep company only with those who are positive and who can support you;
- Improve your life – or rather start doing it, because, most likely, this can’t be achieved immediately. Read the biographies of people you respect, of those who succeeded in life, and adopt their experience;

- Learn to accept compliments. People often distrust them. Don’t do it – don’t be ridiculous. It is silly to view all compliments you receive as flattery. If someone thinks well of you, just accept it. If people think of you well, perhaps, you should think of yourself just the same;
- Always try to find the positive. For instance, you ate a big cake – and you keep a diet. But it was a coffee cake, and caffeine burns fat. It was just an example, maybe, not the best one – but you get the idea;
- Compare yourself only with yourself. Stop comparing yourself with other people. If you compare yourself with superstars, you will always feel terrible. Instead, if you look at yourself and notice that today you are better at something than you were yesterday – then you are on the right track;
- Don’t think ill of yourself. If you constantly do it, you will never improve your self-esteem and will make no progress. Find in yourself something interesting, something that is worth respect or admiration. Everyone is unique, and everyone is worth admiring, believe me!
