3. Six Pillars Of Self-Esteem

Is six pillars of self-esteem Nathaniel Brandon is a book that I recommended time and time again to anyone that wants to be more confident and more purposeful in life. it’s essential reading for any of you who are interested in personal or professional development, especially when it comes to self-confidence and self esteem.

The book demonstrates really compellingly why self esteem is basic to psychological health, achievements, personal happiness and positive relationships and it talks about the six pillars six actions base practices for daily living that provide the foundation for self-esteem and explore the central importance of self-esteem in five areas the workplace parenting, education, psychotherapy, and our culture at large.

It shows us why in today’s chaotic and competitive world self- esteem is fundamental to our personal and professional power of all the judgments that we pass on ourselves in life none of them is as important as the one that we pass on ourselves and is it the type of judgment that we want if self-esteem is something we want to improve. it’s not something you have don't have or but it's a practice and when we say practice it means a discipline of acting a certain way over and again consistently.

It’s not action by fit and starts or even an appropriate response to crisis rather it’s an appropriate and operating way of being day-to-day in big issues and small way of behaving that is a if you combine these ideas with the ideas, you’re gonna get an atomic habits you’re really going to be onto a profound level of change in your life.

Work is defined by a quote from Theodore Roosevelt who said it’s not the critic who counts not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or the Door Of Deeds Could Have Done Them Better The Credit  Belongs To The Man Who Is Actually In The Arena Whose Face Is Marred By Dust And Sweat And Blood who strives valiantly who at nose in the end, triumph of high achievement, and worst if he fails at least fails.

It’s not a weakness but you’re clearest path to courage and meaningful connection and as she says so eloquently in the book connection is why we’re here is what gives purpose and meaning to our lives. The power that connection holds in our lives was confirmed when the concern about connection emerged as the fear of disconnection. the fear that something we have done or fail to do something about who or where we come from has made us unlovable and unworthy of connection daring greatly is not book that will probably help everyone personally but will help everyone relate to some people in their lives.

Who maybe can’t stay out of their own way or their own head maybe it’s the person who has so much potential scared to try. Maybe it’s a person who crumpled under criticism and book is not about being weak or permissive but daring to be you the real you the real you that not everyone is able to see about daring yourself to be uncomfortable to define boundaries for yourself to envision something outside of what society or culture thinks is cool.

We want to acknowledge and not deny the external agencies that influence our thinking as well and this book helps you to think about that on a day-to-day basis how can we free our own mind and identities so we're thinking ourselves not because of the environment and society around us and if that’s not self-improvement.
