Think about all of the things in life that are affected by your sense of self worth.

The people you date. The jobs you accept. The risks you take. The friends you surround yourself with. The treatment you tolerate from others.

All of it is a direct reflection of the level of “value” you place on yourself.

This is why, when you dig deep enough into someone’s challenges or shortcomings, you often find a challenge with acknowledging their own greatness or skills. They feel undeserving of XYZ, and therefore never fully, truly pursue it.

The good news is, your mindset around this perspective is a choice, and you can build it over time with the right strategies and exercises.

Here are a few to get started with:

1: Re-frame negative self-talk.

Let’s start with one of the most important things: How we talk to ourselves when we’re by ourselves.

This simple concept alone is something that most of us take for granted throughout the day and don’t even notice it.

Have you ever walked into a room and forgotten why you went in there? What was your [internal] reaction?
