In our society, most people are awake, but they aren't truly conscious. We go through the motions everyday. Wake up, go to work, come back, have the same argument, watch TV, go to sleep. Even if your daily routine looks more productive than this, chances are you're probably still going through most of your life on autopilot. 2. Pillar no two: Self acceptance While self esteem is a general feeling that you have the entire day, self acceptance is a conscious practice. Self acceptance is one of the most important aspects of having a healthy level of self esteem, and more broadly it is a prerequsite for self improvement. If you're trying to go from one city to another, but you don't know which city you're in, then any map in the world is going to be completely useless to you. Pillar three: Self responsibility Own everything that goes wrong in your life. Now I'm not saying that everything bad that happens is actually your fault, the only reason you should own up to everything is because that is simply the most resourceful state of mind to be in. If you get bad grades in a test and you just blame it on your professor for not instructing you properly, you've just given up all self responsibility, and by doing that you've lost your ability to change the outcome. Now you just may have an incompetent professor, but if you just accept personal responsibility for getting bad grades, then you are more likely to study harder and get better grades the next time. Self responsibility ins't blaming yourself, it's putting yourself in a position to succeed. Pillar four: Self Assertiveness Now self assertiveness isn't becoming arrogant and bullying everyone into accepting your opinion. Ofcourse you're going to have to do this tactfully, but all this means is that you don't simply take everyone else's word for something, and you recognize that you're a perfectly capable human being who's needs and want have to be honoured. Pillar five: Live purposefully Now I can personally guarantee that if you get this right, this pillar will have the most impact on your life, even more than the first one. I'll give you an example. Ever since I started this youtube channel, my life has a purpose, and that is to share ideas to help you improve your life. And even though this channel isn't huge and my ideas don't reach everyone, I still feel like I'm doing my part to fulfill my life's purpose. And trust me, when you feel like your self esteem will skyrocket. Pillar Six: Personal integrity This is the pillar that a lot of us are likely to gloss over because we may not see the i ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gdIN9l9AhKs
