Improve my self-esteem

It turns out the secret to this was being myself. I’m on the path to self discovery, after being asleep for to many years I’m alive again (if not for the first time)

I’m working on changing the things I don’t like about myself and doing very well. I must admit, I like myself better everyday! =)

First I’ve just fixed my computer! It wasn’t a really serious problem but it had been broken for a week. I decided that I was going to fix it and I DID! So major self-esteem boost.
Second I’ve been thinking about a problem of mine: When I meet someone that impresses me I tend to put them on a pedestal; I start believing that they are better than I am and that I’m lucky to be with them. At this point, I believe that no one is perfect but I used to think differently. We are all different; we all have good things and bad things. From now on I will assume that if someone is spending time with me is for the same reason I’m spending time with them: because I enjoy it. I’m not great, I don’t need to be. I’m just me and guess what…I am fond of me.

I had been thinking about this for a while now and this morning I was asked to rate my self-esteem from 1 to 10. Without thinking I wrote 5 down. Tonight I took an online test which rated it at 59% (although I don’t know how reliable it was) I guess I wasn’t so off. Therefore I’ll start working on it I will like to give myself at least a 7 in the near future.
