What society lacks these days is Self Esteem. In these times that TV, print and ads are one big influence to everybody, it seems that 95% of all the things advertised become a huge trend. You will notice that people are beauty conscious now. Magazines and TV gets models to appear in their programs or articles/photo shoots, Models with slender bodies and almost perfect faces. A normal citizen reading these often creates jealousy unconsciously. They try to copy, if not they would try to compare themselves to what they see. Often times after reading a magazine, women (in particular) develop negativity in them. When they try to look at the mirror and what they see is far from the magazine cover they saw. They start to notice their own skin and feel ugly about themselves which is wrong.
We are the ones who create what world or environment we want to stay in. If we want a beautiful and peaceful environment, always start by feeling beautiful, appreciative and peaceful in yourself first. If you want to be respected then start respecting yourself first. All of these speak of Self esteem.
Self Esteem should be one of those characteristics that have a solid foundation in your heart and soul. No matter how many movies you watch or magazines you read, you will still appreciate yourself. Thats where the love of self and self esteem meets. All of your positive ideas radiates through your actions. If you appreciate yourself more than you do before, you will notice that people starts to notice you. See how a lot of us like bubbly personas? Thats because they are so happy to listen to and we also feel happy and light while listening to them! And its not even hard to do! Just be yourself and everything else will follow.
Just like our last article, Its easy to say but hard to do. In these hard times, recession and all of those earthly problems will always be there to pull you down. It is definitely not an excuse. The environment we are in right now plays a big contribution in this journey. It will make it a bit hard for you to progress. But if you are determined enough, these factors will be an inspiration for you rather than a challenge.
Everything in this world goes under the law of attraction. Anything that you do affects you, others and the whole situation. Anything that you put your mind into will most likely succeed. So I say, put your mind into nourishing your self esteem and the rest will follow. Appreciate, respect and love yourself, those are the core values. That will help you in this never ending journey of life-- No matter how many times the world change its face.
