Self Improvement
I get a lot of people asking me, “What are the common signs of low self esteem?” So to put it simply I have decided to write a short article on a few of them. These signs can help you greatly to find out if indeed you show any signs of low self esteem.
This will give you a basic understanding as to what to look out for in yourself or loved ones. By knowing these signs of low self esteem you can gain a clearer understand of yourself and what signs you need to correct and solve.
1. Breaking Eye Contact. This is a very common sign of low self esteem and can be corrected very easily. When someone breaks eye contact or can’t sustain eye contact while in a conversation with someone. Then it is time to find a way to take control of where you look and for how long you sustain direct eye contact for. Now there are various methods on this but what you could do is, simply pay attention to their eyes and facial expressions then when it is your time to speak. You can use hand gestures and move your eyes from objects to your hands hand then have direct eye contact.
2. Stuttering. It is quite often the case that people with low self esteem stutter and really can’t get a fluent sentence out. It can be very frustrating and annoying not being able to speak your mind. Once you have overcome your low self esteem that should change and you should be able to speak to people a lot easier. You will be a lot more confident starting conversations and actually being apart of them. You will start to enjoy yourself a lot more with your friends and family and those you meet for the first time. It is a wonderful feeling being apart of something which makes you feel great and worth while. So visualize that feeling and experience of you making great conversational talk and go for it!
3. Not Opening Up. When someone has low self esteem they usually find it very hard to open up to people. It is very hard to open up to people and show them who they really are. So instead of being the kind of person who is always quiet, shy and never really participates in good conversations, you must find the courage to let yourself be herd. Also people will like you better by getting to know your personality and finding similarities and even differences between you and them. This will help you make new friends and also strengthen friendships.
4. Taking A Chance. By not taking chances and always playing it safe is a sign of low self esteem. Have you noticed that the people with low self esteem are the ones who are following the leaders and never put them selves in the leadership role? They are usually always the ones who never face their fears to achieve something great and spectacular. We all have certain things that require courage and a leap of faith to perform. By taking the first step to achieving something or going down a new path in your life, you can find success on the other side.
There comes a point in people’s lives where you can either decide to go down the same road as everyone else or live life and be adventurous and maybe do something you love but it requires risk. To go to that destination in the world or start your own business to become financially independent. It requires courage to step up your game to move up in your job and produce outstanding work to prove how good you really are
.
