You've Got A Problem With Low Self Esteem, Now It Can Be Repaired Fast

By Stephen Richards

You've been there, tried the hypnotic CD to blast your self esteem skywards and now all you have is the worn out T-shirt as a reminder of that failure. Let me tell you this, it usually takes at least three sessions of expensive hypnotherapy with a one-to-one session with a qualified clinical hypnotherapist to make any inroads into putting back together low self esteem I should know, I am a qualified clinical hypnotherapist! You may even require 10 or 20 sessions, or even months of therapy! That is why such hypnosis audios usually only put a veneer over your problem!

A symptom of low self-esteem is doing our utmost to avoid dicey situations. This is why something like seeking professional help to gauge whether you have an issue with self-esteem is something you may readily avoid. The internet has given you a way of going round this because you can determine if you have low self-esteem issues without seeing anybody as such.

In general, we have to put an eye on our thoughts and behavior but there are some symptoms that ring the bell and tell us that we should think about assessing our self-esteem. Amongst some of these assessments are when we feel unwilling to do or carry out some important thing, when we do not find or see a reason for others around us to love us, when we think that our value compared to others is less. If we felt some, or at least one, of these symptoms, we must stop and think about measuring our self-esteem.

Through the internet, you can get basic self-esteem tests for all and sundry. Each test is uniquely designed for various groupings and gender and some might cost you a decent sum of money, while there are some tests that are actually free. The ones that you can take for free will score you and point to areas where you might need to work on.

Other than those free ones, there are tests on the internet that we need to pay and sign up to take them. Usually they do not only give us a detailed assessment of our self-esteem but they also tell us how to be positive thinkers; they show us how to make a daily affirmation and good kinds of attitudes; they teach us how to develop and improve our self confidence and how to not lose our smile while experiencing new challenges.

As a general rule, it is always better to deal with a professional rather than taking a general internet test, but who can really afford the high cost of this, and over a period of months it could make you bankrupt! When we notice that our children, brothers, sisters, family or friends around us have low self-esteem or have been affected in one way or another, we have to talk to people whom know what they are on about; someone who is trained; we cannot grant our trust to just someone, but we may do if we found someone who deserves to be trusted.

The internet provides a wide range of tests for adults to help them assess their self esteem. Here is a completely free 6 question test, just answer 'yes' or 'no', simple as that:

* Are you comfortable when meeting new people or trying something new?

* Do you think you are generally liked?

* Are you appreciated amongst your work colleagues?

* Do you feel cheerful the majority of the time?

* Do new challenges make you feel excited?

* Do you think your opinion is a valuable asset?

How many times did you answer "Yes"? How many times did you answer "NO"? If you did not score a straight 6 for the "YES" then you have some self-esteem issues! The more you answer "NO" the more issues you have! Sometimes, even if you have answered "YES" to all questions, we need to find out more about self-esteem. However, if your answer to one or more of these questions is a "NO" then sometimes, reading about self esteem and thinking about what we have read can be of help.

We may discover that the level of our self-esteem is not that 'optimum' level that we have to put ourselves at. We may also discover that we just need a little bit of work on our self-confidence, our attitude or our feelings.

Getting a grip on our real level of self-esteem and how it is formed comes from insight understanding. Past experiences we had with our families, with our friends and with people around us while we were growing up is also a good tool that aids developing our self-esteem. Our self-esteem has a rational relationship with our childhood; the quality of treatment we had.

Well, say if there was a way to circumnavigate all those books, tests and expensive therapy to help you overcome low self-esteem then surely you would take that option to finally rid yourself of this nuisance that is holding you back? Now there is an ultimate way to fix low self-esteem without going through weeks or months of therapy. As a former therapist I knew what was needed, and after working with hundreds of thousands of people in dire need of help I was able to pinpoint the exact fix required in order to boost self-esteem sky high. - 31984
