This document discusses strategies for building self-esteem and confidence. It recommends (1) being aware of personal strengths and focusing on developing them, (2) modeling confident people and visualizing yourself as the person you want to become, and (3) achieving small goals to build a sense of self-efficacy. Positive self-talk is important to avoid negative self-criticism. Developing supportive relationships and acting confidently can also help build self-esteem.

3. Strategies to Build Exceptional Self-esteem
(1MIN lecture) Me on a video
• We are not born with any certain level of self-esteem or confidence. What we believe and feel
about ourselves is instead developed early in life as we’re presented with numerous messages
from family, friends, media, and culture that begin to shape the way we view ourselves and the
world around us. We may have been criticized, ignored, or ridiculed, or we may have been lucky
and experienced success, and received praise and respect. Either way, we must learn to be
comfortable with whom we are and the best we have within us in order to have any self-worth.
• Our view of ourselves follows us into adulthood and we must learn to deal with it. It seems to be
human nature to size people up and compare ourselves to others, though until we have self-
acceptance these personal evaluations will lead to distress as there will always be someone
smarter, wiser, and more talented than we are.

with has a major impact on the person we
become

constructive or destructive.

confident person thinks, behaves, believes, and interacts with others

18. VISUAL THE PERSON YOU WANT TO BE

21. ACHIEVEMENT AND ACCOMPLISHMENTS
• A major factor of healthy self-esteem is trusting and believing that we are able
to achieve a given task. In other words we need to develop a positive self-
efficacy.

22. WHAT IS SELF-EFFICACY?
• Is the optimistic self-belief in our competence or chances of successfully
accomplishing a task
•
• Those who believe they can accomplish a task likely will, and those who feel
uncertain will likely shrink away from a task at the first set-back. Self-efficacy then
plays a role in being motivated to take action and in staying resilient when set-
backs emerge.

23. IMPROVE YOUR SKILLS AND PRACTICE
• Being better at some things versus other is just a part of life, but it doesn’t mean
we can’t learn, practice, and improve our skills. If there’s an area you lack
confidence in, start developing other skills

24. SOME OF THE WAYS YOU CAN ACHIEVE OR
ACCOMPLISH TASKS ARE
• . Educate yourself and become an expert
• Anyone can become an expert in their chosen field with enough dedication to
learning and expanding knowledge. Become a student of your field or industry. There
is no reason we can’t learn everything we need to know on a topic in this day and age.
We have an endless supply of information we can research from the internet, attend
lectures, reading books, or taking classes. By expanding your knowledge and
understanding of a topic you can learn to trust and recognize yourself as an industry
expert.

25. 6. SET SMALL ACHIEVABLE GOALS
• A great way to boost confidence and self-trust is to see success and
accomplishments in your life. Set small milestones that you’ll be able to achieve.
Little by little, as you accomplish new goals, you’ll feel more hopeful and
optimistic about the future. Your confidence will build as you see success in
different areas and you’ll realize you’re capable of achieving much morethan you
previously believed.
