How Do You Appreciate Yourself?

Appreciate, myself. I am very confused, do I have appreciated myself or not. Because, so far, I've always tried to appreciate others, which sometimes made ??me extremely insignificant.

Great discussion! I appreciate myself mostly by being honest with myself. If there is an area in which I am talented, I make sure my self knows that. False modesty with one's self, or lying to one's self about how under-talented one does not do one any good. I like to know my strengths - such knowledge can do wonders for one's self esteem. However I also do same for the areas in which I am not talented. I will not deceive myself into thinking I am good in an area in which I am not really good at all. Knowing where one is lacking is to know where one can improve. To appreciate yourself is to be honest with yourself. I also appreciate myself by doing things I want to do. I get a notion for something fun in my head - I rewards myself and do it! If one ignores those inclinations, one will live a life where one misses out on a lot of great things. :) How do you appreciate yourself? :)

O won't deny that sometimes I'm just too hard on myself. I get conscious most of the time and ask myself if I'm worth it. I had a very bad day yesterday cause I forgot my password in my Paypal account and I can't remember the answer to my security questions I have made before so I'm very pissed that I blamed myself for forgetting everything that is important in my life. Another thing is that I just got rejected yesterday as well in one online earning site and they said that I was not good enough. I almost cried. I told myself that if only I could have done something to improved myself I would not get such rejection. But I know that this has got to stop and I'll make sure that I will work on it. Thank you very much for posting this. It really hit my core and it made me realized a lot of things. I hope when I wake up tomorrow or the day after I'll be waking up as a good, renewed and a strong woman who appreciates herself holistically and everything that is happening in her life. Once again, I thank you Ronadelle.

Honestly I do appreciate myself and I am confident about myself. But, there was one sad event in my life that made me lost my self confidence. It takes me time to recover and regain my self confidence thu not totally I was able to moved on. I am thankful that I've met someone who gives me back my self confidence totally and bring me back t old self again. Now, I am slowly turning back and gaining more confidence

I have always been confident of myself. Because of that, i appreciate myself. I see to it that i maintain my health and outward look, by good grooming and taking care that i eat a balanced diet always. I take vitamins and i exercise. I get to let my mind always work, so that it will not stagnate. I go to the parlor, to have my hair rebonded once or twice a year. I put some creams to make my face smooth and glowing. Most of all, i always stay in love with my husband.

Most women are insecure not like men (im not sexist or something i just want to say my opinion) they tend to look at others first to see if they are better, but the thing is, they always think that there is always someone better than them. Being a self proclaimed beauty is like just embarrassing, so we people really need to have someone to at least appreciate our looks first before we appreciate it ourselves. We groom ourselves to make others see that we look good right? so if no one will appreciate this fact then we wouldn't appreciate it ourselves too.

Do I appreciate myself? Not right now! I have struggled with my wieght all my life and I am the highest I have been in my life! It sucks and wish I didn't have this problem! I wish there was an easy way to lose some and keep it off! I am not willing to work on it! I know I will fail and keep hoping there was a easier way to get rid of this weight! Until that happens I will continue to get bigger and more unhappy!

Though it might not sound like a traditional way of appreciating oneself, the way that I appreciate myself is through my writing. I have enjoyed writing since I was a very young girl and recently I've been working toward posting a lot of articles online so that other people are able to read from my knowledge and increase their own knowledge as well. It is something that is very simple, but it is something that I enjoy and it is also something that can help other people.

I think you would be good therapist. I think I need some sessions with you. I don't know how I should appreciate myself. I don't feel it. I always have to heard from other that I did good job or something like this. I never believe in my talents and I'm not convinced that I have any. I think because my family never appreciated what ever I did or was good in something. They always were joking if I have this need to discover my talents or have any hobbies so It stuck with my forever I think. Also I don't like to look in the mirrors and hardly ever think that I'm special and never think that I can be beautiful because I realise that I'm not and I have to face the true. But I admire that you can appreciate yourself and other people got the same ability.

Thanks for your encouraging words. Reading your discussion makes me feel good today. Especially right now I'm in a state where I'm in self-doubt. I've been trying to change my way of thinking about myself ans love myself more. I just turn to God whenever I feel more doubtful again about myself.
