Self-esteem is a very important ingredient to live a happy and fulfilling life.  It is important because feeling good about one’s self can affect how a person acts.  Self-esteem is all about how much people value themselves, the pride they feel in themselves, and how worthwhile they feel.  As most of you all know, people who struggle with gaining a good self-esteem are mostly teens.  This is because in the teen ages, the body goes through many changes.  These changes are combined with a desire to feel accepted.  Teens may compare themselves with the people around them, or what they see in Hollywood, and the latest trends in magazines.  Some teens might be tempted to copy or do what their idolized characters in the media are doing.  Here are a few simple ways to enhance your self-esteem:

1.)  Set goals and work to achieve them- Isn’t it nice knowing that you have achieved something from your own hard work?

2.)  Develop your talents- Talents are a big asset to a person’s life.  If you develop your own talent, you’ll be really proud of yourself.

3.)  Be your own best friend- Treat yourself well and do things that are good for you.

4.)  Reward yourself for your successes-  Some of us just don’t realize how big the accomplishments we make in life.  Spend time and recognize it.

5.) Make good choices for yourself- This means don’t let others decide or make choices for you.

So there it is, a few guidelines to enhance a person’s self-esteem.
