Be His Gift of Self-esteem for Christmas
On Christmas Day give your loved one a special gift. This gift
should be real and true. It will let him know how dear he is to
you and how much you look forward to spending the rest of your
life with him.
This special gift being, your most highest Self-esteem. One that
he will never, ever forget. Through your gift of a higher
self-esteem, he will know just how much he means to you. After
all, you can not just go to the department store and buy this
gift.
It is a gift that has taken time and effort. It is a gift that
not very many people would even consider giving. It is a true
gift of love.
Remember, no one likes to open an empty box, so make sure it is
full of self-worth and self-esteem.
You are probably wondering, how am I suppose to do that? I know
that sure we can want it and we can fake it, but can we really
feel it and offer our self-esteem as a real, and true gift, one
that will last forever.
Yes you can! You just do it.
You have all heard of the,"Twelve days of Christmas"?
Well I have put together for you, 12 very positive habits in
order to each your highest self-esteem. Not to mention a very
good feeling of self-worth. Think of it as the Twelve Days to a
Higher Self-esteem!
We have heard all the love songs and read all the very sweet,
romantic Christmas cards that are bought by the millions. In my
mind almost all of those sweet lyrics are asking for one thing
and one thing only. He wants YOU for Christmas. He wants to see
you smile and radiate with love for him. So ladies lets just do
it. Lets give him a Christmas that he will always remember.
One that will make him smile every day for the rest of his life.
After-all, he is very much worth it. Love is worth all, if not
more of the discipline and energy it takes in building that
higher, more positive self-esteem. This is my gift to you! I
hope that your loved one will be a very happy guy this
Christmas, when he sees your gift of self-esteem that you have
given him.
Twelve Days to a Higher Self-esteem:
Day 1-Write about you! Get a journal and write about you in it
every night before you go to bed. Write at least 10 things that
you did that makes you smile that day, no matter how small.
Day2- Be your own you! Live your life like you want to live it.
Make your own decisions. Do not base your decisions on other's
wants and desires.
Day 3- Identify your priorities! Take care of your needs first.
Find what gives you lasting pleasure, not just instant quick
fixes. To respect your needs is a great way to lift your
self-worth and build a higher self-esteem.
Day 4- Share more of you with others! In sharing a part of you,
and making others feel good, you in turn feel very valuable. A
feeling of value will send your self-esteem soaring.
Day 5-Spend time with positive people! Positive people send
positive vibes.
Day 6-Stay away from the "I want" syndrome! Meaning, I want to
look like her, I want to be skinny, I want to be perfect, Or I
want what I will never have. These are all negative thoughts
that only work against your positive self-esteem.
Day 7- Love Who You Are! Look in the mirror and tell yourself
you are UNIQUE at least10 times through out this day. Tell
yourself that you are SPECIAL. That you are LOVED and want to
love back. (It's been a week now and it's been tough, but dont
give up! Your more than half way now!)
Day 8- Stop the comparison game! When you compare yourself, you
are questioning your own self-worth. A very BAD HABIT. STOP it
on this day!
Day 9- Stop trying to be perfect! To be a perfectionist will
only drain energy that you could benefit you in just being you!
We all know that once you can just be you, life seems so much
more fun!
Day 10- Stop putting yourself down! Putting yourself down every
chance you get is a definite no-no. You cannot win the
positive/negative battle if you continue to think negative.
(almost there now!)
Day11- HUG alot! Hug as many people as you can on this day. Just
make sure they are not strangers. That could be a bit of a
problem. Hugz are just so good! People can not hug enough or get
hugged enough. So hug alot!
Day12- (Last Day!) Just do It! You cannot win the battle if you
don't do anything to win it. When you activley work toward
achieving your positive thoughts, you not only defeat the
negative but you also feel good inside about yourself and
others. That is exactly what makes your self-esteem soar!
Well there you have it, my gift to you. How to get your
self-esteem to a high enough feeling that it can be a gift from
you to him. One that he will surely cherish.
Christmas time is a very special time of the year. We are all in
a very positive, happy mood. The Christmas spirit washes over us
like a warm wind. Embrace it, enjoy it, and remember to share
your good feelings with everyone. Others are also trying to
build their self-esteem and could definitely benefit from your
positive smiles and hugz.
I wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and I truly hope that
your self-esteem will be a gift to remember. Dorothy Lafrinere
