Anxiety is often connected with low self-esteem.

There are a few questions that you may ask yourself in order to ascertain whether your self-esteem is low or not.

There are many indicators that a person has a low self-esteem.

If you recognize yourself in the following statements, you probably suffer from low self-esteem. This can be overcome and I am going to show you how.

You consider yourself unworthy of being cared for; you are fearful of conflicts with others; you badly need the approval of others; fears follow you everywhere; you are insecure, anxious and nervous when you are with others. There are many other indicators. Maybe that you find them by asking yourself some questions.

If any of these statements apply to you, you better start working on yourself to be on the right track to a normal self-esteem.. You can do this by taking small and easy steps.

Affirmations are a good means but they only work if they are “felt”. This means that you put an emotion like love into the affirmations.

By doing so you can increase your self-esteem. Feel that you are worthy of being cared for. Feel that people like you, feel that others approve of what you do and who you are. When doing affirmations look into the mirror and say to yourself that you love the person you see, that is YOU. Feel the love for yourself. You deserve to be loved by yourself. To love your Self is the first step. I know that it is not the easiest one, but it is ESSENTIAL. You are a unique and beautiful person. No-one is like you. Give love to this uniqueness and say thanks for it.

Don’t fear conflicts with others. You know that what you fear will appear in your life. This is the law of attraction at work. Whatever you fear comes into your life, whatever you love comes also into your life. The choice is yours. You certainly know which serves you better.

If you live in the moment and express your love, there is no space for anxious thoughts and for insecurity and nervousness. Maybe that you feel nervous  in  the form of aggressiveness. This will come back into your life. So choose well. If you replace nervousness with calmness, you do a favor to yourself but also to your environment.

Too many suicides are consumed in the world. Behind many of them there is a very low self-esteem. I am not talking about the kamikaze that kill themselves for fanaticism.

Low self-esteem in people who tend to depression or to throwing away their own life is a wide-spread disease. Strangely enough, nobody addresses low self-esteem when talking about these many people who commit suicide.

If in general, people were more aware of the sufferance of others maybe low self-esteem were less deadly.
It is the indifference with which whole communities treat their members that kills many people.
If you listen to the talks among people who know each other for many reasons, be it work, be it because they are neighbors, you may be astonished how flaw these talks are. They remain on the surface. How is the inside, the mental aspect of a person, does he or she have   fears, anxieties, doubts or panic or depression? Who is interested in these aspects of a person? Most of your neighbors are not. They have their own problems and do not want to know those of others.
A person who suffers from low self-esteem remains isolated in his/her mental torture.
If there is no help they can get from people around them, who live or work with them, their self-esteem will get lower and lower.
“Nobody wants me”: this thought will continue to appear in their life, in their, maybe, sleepless nights. This idea of being left alone becomes so strong that they tell themselves that they are nobody, in any case nobody wanted by others. Then the low self-esteem turns into deep depression and at the end, it can really be deadly.
It is important for all of us to have a good word for all people who cross our way. Sometimes just a friendly “hi” can do wonders.
Let us be the wonder in somebody’s life.
