"Science and psychology have isolated the one prime cause for success or failure in life. It is the hidden self-image you have of yourself."
-- Bob Proctor

Do you have low self esteem? Sorry! I know that's a very personal question, and I hardly know you, but... Do you?

  • Chances are I'm thinking that you have at least experienced the symptoms of low self esteem at some point in your life.

  • Chances are you are willing to share your low self esteem symptoms here on this page, too.

Especially if I ask nicely! And even more especially if I tell you that all submissions are anonymous (including my own).

AND you'll receive 2 self-esteem ebooks, free, for your troubles.

And, and...

Read on... (Please.)




Low self esteem signs - what I say...

Okay, I know what you're thinking! You're wondering why anyone would share their own low self esteem signs, on a website, in full view of the whole internet-viewing world! Am I right?

Well, it's my belief that not only is a problem shared a problem halved, but that sharing this particular problem - your very own symptoms of low self esteem - will also help others who have their own low self esteem issues.

Yes, this is a classic case of help yourself and help others too!

To get you started - and whoever you are, and however confident and successful you've now become, I think you've probably experienced low self esteem at some point in your life - here are some general symptoms:

  1. Guilt.
  2. Self-Shame.
  3. Unforgiving/unrealistic expectation of perfection in others (and yourself).
  4. Lack of trust.
  5. Misplaced humility.
  6. Feeling constantly depressed.
  7. Always anticipating and predicting what happens next.
  8. Believing that the world is a 'bad place'.

A scarily familiar list (of symptoms of low self esteem) indeed. If I'm being honest. And I usually am.

So, how to improve self-esteem?

  1. Write about your own low self esteem signs. Really. Writing things down *is* a powerful form of acknowledgement where you recognise (and can admit) to what's 'wrong' and thus allow yourself to make positive changes and improvements.

    In short, you can't change what you don't acknowledge! And writing down your symptoms of low self esteem (even anonymously) *is* acknowledgement! :-)

  2. Download and read your free ebook, Using Affirmations to Boost Self Esteem (includes bonus 101 helpful affirmations), as well as the Self Esteem Quotes ebook, both compiled by me, Steve M Nash.

    Both these ebooks are free for you to download, just as soon as you share own low self esteem signs. Again, do so anonymously.

Free Ebook #1

"Boost Self Esteem With Affirmations" -- Explains how to use affirmations to change the way you think about yourself. Includes 101 bonus affirmations.

Ebook in PDF format

e.g. "Today I awaken to my higher wisdom."

"Self-Esteem Quotes "
-- Carefully selected inspirational
quotes on self-esteem

Ebook in PDF format

e.g. "Self-esteem must be earned! When you dare to dream, dare to follow that dream, dare to suffer through the pain, sacrifice, self-doubts, and friction from the world, you will genuinely impress yourself." -- Dr. Laura Schlessinger

  1. Visit Amy Twain's "Fabulous Self Esteem" Website

    Of course, you could always visit Amy Twain's "Fabulous Self Esteem" website - there's a great free report there, but I think sharing here first will help you understand the 'problem'.

All you have to do is simply fill in the form below, as honestly as you are able...
