Stress Free Living – Boost Your Self-Esteem by Accepting Yourself

05/19/2009 By Linda Hampton Leave a Comment

If you’re like most people you may not even recognize when those negative emotions happen especially when they happen all the time.  Maybe you’ve never been able to find positive way to deal with negative feelings. You might even deny it’s happening and use food, cigarettes, or alcohol to numb your feelings.  But can this lead to a positive outcome?  No.

The first thing to realize is that while you can’t  always control what happens to you, you can certainly control your response to what happens to you. Remaining to be calm and managing your feeling is a skill you can learn. The choice to learn is strictly yours.   Past events control your feeling, your feeling determine your action, lack of action, wrong or right actions.
Feeling self confident or feeling  low self esteem both trigger responses.  One positive the other negative.  Emotions are important because they help us deal with different situations in different ways.
Four core emotions that effects everyone anger, sadness, fear and joy. If you understand what your reactions are and work on moderating and managing, you will feel more in control of yourself and more confident of handling various situations.
More on these emotions another day.  Just remember it’s natural to accept you have these emotions sometime feeling more then one at a time.  But controlling them means first and foremost accepting yourself.
