INFO
Self-esteem Your Concerns and Our Methods, Self-confidence are closely related concepts related to the evaluation of one’s own person. While self-esteem rather describes the basic appreciation of one’s own person, self-confidence refers to the confidence in one’s own abilities and the feeling of being able to overcome challenges.
Words create reality
- Not only those we hear since childhood, but also those we tell ourselves. They have an enormous impact on our self-confidence and self-esteem. Thought patterns and beliefs can block and limit us in our possibilities, while they don’t always have anything to do with reality. If then the inner, self-critical voice comes forward, self-doubt can grow into the burdensome.
Why are self-esteem and self-confidence important?
- Healthy self-esteem and self-confidence are of great importance for a fulfilling life. They influence: Social relations: People with high self-esteem and self-confidence approach others more openly and confidently. Professional success: Confident people are more likely to take on new challenges and pursue their goals. Mental health: Positive self-image protects against depression and anxiety disorders.
Increased risk
- Through deep-seated fears, emotional resistances or untimely, adopted beliefs, we stand in the way of ourselves. If other stressful factors are added, there is also an increased risk of developing a mental disorder. Low self-esteem leads to negative feelings, difficulties in dealing with other people and limitations in everyday action. All this increases the risk of developing mental illness in the long term. Depression and social phobias are most common.
New experience
- For serious problems with self-esteem, coaching or psychotherapy can be helpful in strengthening it and overcoming the problems associated with it. To improve self-esteem, exercises are performed and psychotherapeutically treated for underlying problems such as psychological trauma in childhood. Self-esteem can be increased. The only important thing is to be open to new experiences and willing to actively work towards change.
