Boost Your Self-Esteem This New Year

This new year, boost your self-esteem and gain the confidence you need to achieve your personal goals. Here are ways you can do so:

• Know your principles and live by them.
  Consciously aligning your life with your principles ultimately results in your decision-making process becoming more firm, harmonious, and fast. This practice lessens inhibitions and enables you to become more certain of your identity, especially when exposed to new environments.
• Be honest.
  Clinical psychologist and motivational speaker Jordan Peterson encourages people to always tell the truth or to at least not lie. He said that even the littlest of white lies can make you anxious and lose sleep at night. You then become more concerned about aligning your consequent actions with the half-truths and lies you’ve said, rather than the truths that you believe in. This is self-destructive and will cause you to lose your idea of who you really are.
• Heal your past.
  If you’ve undergone trauma in the past, you can turn to a therapist for mental health therapy sessions. A therapist can help you go through past hurts and unresolved issues that may be hindering you from feeling confident and secure.
• Care about how you look.
  Start caring about your appearance. There is a simple psychology in dressing well, and that is look your best, feel your best.
