Self-Esteem and Confidence

Today's topic is having great self-esteem and confidence. Your self-esteem and confidence is how you see yourself. There are people who have days where they value themselves highly, they believe that they can accomplish anything that they put their minds to. However, there are people that have days where they don't really value themselves like they should and they have doubt themselves. Self-esteem and confidence starts within you and you have to believe that you can do whatever you please. What can increase your confidence level  is positive self talk. Positive self talk is when you say things like "I love myself" or "I can do anything if I put forth my best effort." But there are always going to be thoughts that may make you think negative thoughts about yourself. And when you start believing in them you will start having negative self talk. Negative self talk is when you say things like " I am useless" or "I am stupid." Most of the time negative thoughts begin with friends and family members saying what they like and dislike about you. When you have negative thoughts thrown at you just know that you are a amazing person inside and out. NO MATTER WHAT PEOPLE SAY!!!
