My Self Esteem
#MySelfEsteem
My self esteem isn't low or isn't high either its moderate. Being rejected by others isn't such a bad thing it shows I don't need them as friends. And over the years I have learned that. Sometimes I want to go out of my way to attain their friendship because I don't want to be alone. Just let it go. Rejection by the people in my life doesn't shatter my self image, but it does bring me down a little. In my self esteem, I fully approve of who I am and fully respect who I am and do not need others to try to change who I am and turn me into something I'm not.
#MySelfEsteem
This is what I don't listen to others say about me.
- She doesn't fit in.
- She isn't good enough.
- She isn't worth it.
- She doesn't even compare.
If you hear those things about you just ignore it. That's what I do and I have a lot of Self Esteem.
