It's a beautiful Sunday to discuss a very important topic, join me as we talk about Self Esteem!
Going through peoples' stories sometimes can truly keep you abreast on possibilities of hurting others self esteem by the little harmless (we feel) things we say!
I just wish everyone could start learning to give off only positive vibes, everybody are on different levels emotionally, what A can take B may hang himself over!
Can our words just bless?
I just so deeply fear for our children because the cruise you think you are catching now by making hurtful comments, will also be done to your children by you.
You shut people down and you feel good about it, it's recording and becoming part of you and you will do same to your children without realizing what it's doing to them.
Parents who are informed, my dear future parent of which I am one, start working on yourselves, start practicing use of right words, yes have that consciousness now.
Learn it, let it be part of you now, so that your children won't be affected because you made these attitudes part of you!
Make plans to go any length in protecting your wards from the words and acts of people who ain't informed!
Yes it's not just saving them from others but also from yourself, from the things you feel are normal now, from the things you laugh off, yes start now to work on you, start being more conscious of your words and actions, infact start practicing now with children and people around you.
I will also add this, no matter your emotional level, hear this👇
You may not control peoples' comments or words, but please for your sake build an internal mechanism to block off what people may say to you and like I always say if you can please tell off people who try to tell you off or bring you down with their words, do it? It has ways of helping you feel better for you get elated when you think of how you were able to turn the effects of their words to your favour.
Please don't let anyone mess your esteem up, it's a jewel that needs protection, failure to do that may affect other areas of your life.
Your confidence is everything, even some things which you can't get through knowledge and skill you can still get with confidence so treasure it, don't allow anyone mess it up!
I am telling you because I wasn't told, I know for I had a first hand experience!
Say nice words!
Be welcoming and accommodating!!
Be firm yet polite!!!
May God help us all.
Thanks for engaging 🙏
