Affirmations for Self-Esteem

There are many things I do successfully. (Write them down if you have to.)
I can improve my self-esteem by meeting my own expectations.
I don't have to strive for perfection to approve of myself.
My worth as a human being does not depend on achieving a perfect weight, or by being the smartest, or the most popular, or the fastest, or having the highest grades, or being the funniest, or having the coolest friends, or getting into the best school, or... (you fill in the rest !)
I alone am responsible for the decisions I make.
I am a unique individual.
Persistence will help me succeed.
Every mistake I make can be an opportunity to learn. I can't be afraid to make mistakes, this is how I learn to improve.
I deserve support and will ask for help when I need it.
I have the power to forgive myself for past mistakes.
I will treat myself as someone special.
I determine what success means to me.


Comments:

thank you

wow i need to repeat a few of these to myself. it’s a challenge to accept and approve of myself, not relying on that input from others.
sometimes i feel diminished by someone else’s success or beauty or luck or what have you, when a part of me knows this is unhealthy and unrealistic. there is enough beauty, success and luck to go around.
thanks for this list.
