Self-Esteem


Trust yourself. You know more than you think. - Benjamin Spock

Do I trust myself? Sometimes. The days that I do not trust my judgment, when I'm insecure, are when I am off beam: I'm too tired, I've not eaten, I'm stressed, or I'm in a bad mood. Winston Churchill used to call these times "the day of the black dog." Fortunately, they are not too often. Why? Well, I'm taking better care of myself. I go to bed early. I eat sensibly. I stay around positive people. Because of these simple life exercises I find I'm in a better mood, more optimistic, happier. And my self-esteem has improved. Then I'm able to trust myself, and I realize what Dr. Benjamin Spock has said: I really do know more than I think I do.

My Say Yes to Your Spirit involves trusting myself.
