How to Raise Your Self-Esteem with a Self-Esteem Diary

 

Keeping a self-esteem diary is a great self-esteem exercise that keeps your self-esteem high every day. You will only spend a couple of minutes every day and you will keep focused on the positive aspects of your life and on what you want.

 

Get a small notebook. I suggest that you write in it at the same time every day so that it becomes a habit for you. I write in the evening before I go to be, but you may choose some other time that works better for you. Write down a few points under each of the following headings:

 

GOOD

Write down the things that you did today that "proves" that you are a wonderful person. Perhaps you completed some important work, helped a friend, listened patiently to your mother complaining or chose fruit instead of chocolate. Anything that shows that you have a wonderful personality is good. If you want to, you can add a short summary after each point. These summarie should explain what the action you made means about your personality.

 

For example it can look something like this:

 

helped my friend with her essay – helpful

finished all my reports in one hour – efficient

solved the sudoku that my brother had given up with – intelligent

 

By adding these short explanations, you will practise presenting yourself and thinking about yourself in positive words. This is very good self-esteem practise!

 

THANK YOU

Write down some of the things that you feel grateful for at the moment. It could be that the you found cheap strawberries in the supermarket, that you have amazing friends, that the telephone bill was unusually low, that you feel healthy etc. Writing down what you are grateful for is a good practise for focusing on the positive aspects of your life, and this helps you to develop self-esteem.

 

WANT

Write down what you want. You can write down either things that you want right now or things that you want in the long-term. Maybe you want a well-paid job, appreciation for helping your friends to clean their flat, improve your Italian, good results in the exam tomorrow or something else. It is good to force yourself to write down what you want because in many cases you may not really know what it is that you want. If you don't know exactly what you want you will probably not get it. Also, even if you figure out what you want one day you need to keep reminding yourself of it. Keeping a self-esteem diary is a handy way of doing this.

 

Enjoy the self-esteem writing!

Is this college course any good?

I am thinking of applying for this course Building a Career in Administration NVQ level 2

Students will develop a range of general administration skills which could include the following:

Customer relations
Managing diaries
Dealing with visitors
Filing systems
Organising and supporting meetings
Using IT
Using telephone systems
Operating office equipment
Producing documents
Working effectively as part of a team

At the end of the course, students will be guaranteed an interview for a paid temporary post or apprenticeship

The placement will involve working in 2 or 3 different college departments such as HR, Finance, Estates, Curriculum Administration hubs, Marketing etc.

Have a look at www.apprenticeships.org.uk - might as well start with the apprenticeship and get the L2 or 3 in a real world environment, earning a wage and gaining valuable experience for your cv.

Guaranteed an interview doesn't really mean a lot as it might be for a job with someone you really don't want to work for!

Also, officially starting in April 09 is the Governments new National Apprenticeship service, but it will have a soft launch for potential learners in January and at its core will be a vacancy matching service allowing employers and providers to advertise Apprenticeship job vacancies nationally and also allow potential applicants to search anywhere in england across any sector.

If you click through the website you should be able to get more info.

Also, if your under 19 talk to connexions as they should hold info as well.
