Top 10 Self Esteem Building Activities

- Apply the law of attraction. This is one of the most powerful of the self esteem building activities. If you have poor self esteem it is a sure bet that you feel disempowered, inconsequential, or weak. Once you understand the law of attraction you cannot help but feel the power and importance of becoming a deliberate creator in your life.
- Appreciate your body. This self esteem building activity is especially important for women. Instead of focusing on the cellulite on your thighs, the wrinkles on your face, your big feet, or your frizzy hair, think about and appreciate:
-Your millions of cells working perfectly and brilliantly right now to make your body run smoothly -Your heart pumping and the oxygen flowing to bring you life -Your legs allowing mobility and freedom -Your fingers which allow you to hold a great, steaming cup of coffee or write a heartfelt poem -Your eyes so you can watch a beautiful sunrise or read a great book -Your ears which let you listen to the perfect song, a child laughing, or rain on your window pane Well, you get the picture. Why focus on the few things that are not someone’s idea of perfect? Your body is a remarkable and miraculous thing. Appreciate it and watch your self esteem soar. - Learn how to build self confidence. Self confidence is not the same as self esteem. Self confidence is part of the overall larger category of self esteem. Self esteem is a more internal picture of how you see yourself and self confidence is how you project yourself to the outer world. You can appear self confident yet lack self esteem. When you focus on self confidence building activities you cannot help but improve your overall self esteem.
- Develop positive self talk. Replacing negative talk with positive self talk is a great self esteem building activity. Stop dwelling on the negative and play up the positive.
- Do Research. Start small and pick one area of your life that you’d like to improve. Educate yourself about that subject by reading books, devouring the Web, and talking with people who are already successful in this area. When your knowledge about this subject increases, your self confidence will improve as well. Think of an area in your life where you DO have self confidence – are you a great cook, gardener, teacher, or mother? Are you confident as a skier, a bowler, or a writer? You gained confidence through knowledge and experience. You can do that again in the area in your life that now needs improvement. Having confidence is a big factor in your overall self esteem, so continually seek opportunities to ramp it up.
- Practice Mindful Meditation. This helps us focus on the present moment, which stops any resistance we have that limits our ability to improve our lives. Meditation helps us find peace and harmony with whatever is happening; to just accept what is. Just 10 to 15 minutes a day can have a tremendous impact on your self esteem.
- Look for inspiration. Find a song, a video, a book, or a quote that inspires you. Listen to personal development CDs while you’re cooking, gardening, or driving. Make a vision board that you can look at every day to keep you focused on your dreams. These kinds of self esteem building activities give you opportunities to learn and grow.
- Practice not caring what others think. Almost all successful people disregarded the naysayers and plowed through to make their vision a reality. It’s been said that only 5% of people successfully live their dreams so don’t take advice or criticism from the 95% of people who aren’t. Pick a subject and test this out. Do something without any regard to what your friends, co-workers or family will think. You will be amazed at the freedom you will feel and shocked that the world didn’t come to an end. Surround yourself with great support. Sometimes this comes from people we don’t even know, such as online communities, taking classes, or doing volunteer work.
- Celebrate your successes. Celebrate no matter how big or small. Did you lose 5 pounds, apply for a job, complete an online course, research new job opportunities, or walk a mile every day for a week? Celebrate!
