I was always okay with pictures being take of me, but after 4 pregnancies and 2 kids I really don't like my picture taken now. I'm breaking out of my shell today and taking a picture of myself. For you to see a change in yourself, sometimes it takes a good picture. But since this isn't just a physical change we are going for I'm doing something a little extra with it.
Today I would like you to take a current picture of yourself and then list 10.... yes 10 things you like about yourself when you look at it. Dig deeper than physical appearance.
We are our own worst critics, don't let any negative thoughts into your head about yourself. We all have weaknesses. That is why I am doing this, to help over come my weaknesses and feel more confident with myself.
Hang this somewhere you can see it daily to help motivate you and keep you uplifted.
Part 2: Ask a spouse, friend, co-worker, family member, someone you know well to write down 10 things they love about you.
Self Esteem comes from within, but is influenced by those around you. I never really had a good self esteem, even to this day I have problems with it. My husband can always tell when I'm having a hard day because I am slumped over and don't say much. He is always so good about telling me what I need to hear. Because of the relationship I have with him and my kids, I have been better than ever. I mostly have problems when I am around others who are skinny, well dressed, are confident, and have such good self esteems that it makes me feel worthless.
So have someone write down 10 things they love about you and hang it with your picture. Then you can see not only what you see in yourself, but what those who truly know and love you see in you too.
Today and all year I am working on my self worth, confidence, and self esteem. No one can bring me down.
