Your Greatest Reward…

Please imagine a few possible scenarios for yourself….You desire to write a bestselling book.  You take writing courses, attend workshops, and work on honing your craft.  You write every day for months and months.  Finally, you start your book and after months of hard effort complete it.  It gets accepted by a publisher and it debuts on the New York Times bestseller list! That isn’t your greatest reward…

You probably already figured it out.  These types of statements are spoken by people who want to play the victim card and feel that bad things always “happen” to them.  They never take responsibility for the trauma and drama continually swirling around them.

Building Up Your Self-Worth (Self-Esteem) 

Last post we explored the suppressors, the things that cause you to doubt or diminish your self-worth.  And I told you that self-worth can never come from things outside of yourself.  Self-worth comes from the inside.  So let’s look at some things that build up your self-worth.

Things that Destroy Your Self-Worth

Last post we looked at how people punish or self-sabotage themselves because they have worthiness issues.  Their self-worth is so low that they consciously or subconsciously, don’t believe they deserve to be healthy, happy and prosperous.  So it’s worth some more discussion on how you can actually build up your self-worth.

Fighting Depression and Narcissism

Many of the most devoted religious people I know are actually quite narcissistic.  Their noble pursuit of peace, love and harmony seems noble enough, but it’s actually because they are so self-absorbed and seeking these things for themselves.

Fighting Against Circumstances

You often hear people complaining about the circumstances they are fighting.  But that’s like fighting symptoms and ignoring the cause.

Becoming an Enlightened Person

You may worship Jesus or Buddha, idolize Mother Teresa or Golda Meir, or be inspired by the way Oprah lives her life.  Your lifetime goal might be that people see you in a similar way.  That’s a wonderful perspective to have.  But there is only one way to create that reality and it won’t come from imitating those you admire.
