The effects of low self-esteem are many — underachievement at work
or school, fear of intimacy or success, alcohol or drug abuse, sexual
difficulties, anxiety or depression. But if we wish to grow in
self-esteem, what concrete, specific action should we take? This is the question Nathaniel Branden answers in this book.
In How to Raise Your Self-Esteem, Branden has created a
factual, plain language step-by-step guide to strengthening the feeling
of self-worth. We are given simple techniques we can practice today,
this week, this month, to radically transform ourselves — and thereby
transform radically the way we live.
In this book, you will learn how to:
- Break free of negative self-concepts and self-defeating behavior
- Recognize what self-esteem is not
- Free yourself from guilt
- Live self-acceptingly
- Be authentic in relationships
- Take responsibility for your own happiness — and stop blaming other people and outside events
- Dissolve internal barriers to success in work and love
- Live actively rather than passively
- Nurture the self-esteem of others
- Find the courage to love yourself — and to understand that you are right to do so.
In an age of increased challenges and pressures, it is supremely
important that we be centered within ourselves and face life
confidently and optimistically. if this is your goal, then How To Raise Your Self-Esteem is addressed to you.
