"If you're trying to achieve, there will be roadblocks. I've had them; everybody has had them. But obstacles don't have to stop you. If you run into a wall, don't turn around and give up. Figure out how to climb it, go through it, or work around it."Michael Jordan

If you are having one of those days where your self esteem seems to be dragging you down, instead of wallowing in self pity, take steps to boost yourself up! Maybe you just woke up not quite feeling your best or made a significant mistake in front of someone important. Perhaps you did not do as well as you thought on your test or did not excel at your interview.
Everyone has had a day where the world just did not seem to be on their side and that black cloud was persistently over their head. Whatever the reason, learning a few tricks to quickly boost your self esteem will have a bounce in your step and your head in the clouds in no time!
Find a physically activity you enjoy doing. Whether it is jogging, aerobics, or yoga, exercise is a sure-fire way to boost your self esteem. If you are starting to feel low, take 15 minutes out of your day to exercise your worries away. In addition to producing endorphins that raise your spirits, you will have lessened your chances for disease, heart attack, and stroke in one fell swoop.
If that capability is not enough to boost your self esteem, then think about the physical effects of exercise. Even a brief amount of exercise is enough to trim and shape up your body. The old saying, when you look good, you feel good is in full effect.
Take a second to be silly. Whether you need a hearty belly laugh or a moment to dance by yourself, a second is enough time to feel good about yourself again. Many websites will send jokes to your inbox on a daily or weekly basis. Sign up for this free service and open the e-mail when you are feeling low.
There is nothing like a good laugh to remind yourself what a great person you are. Put on your favorite song and dance like there is no tomorrow. In addition to easing your stress, your self esteem will shoot through the roof as the music brings back favorite memories.
Allow yourself a luxury. Remind yourself you are important and worthy of the world on a silver platter. When things are not going your way and you begin to question yourself, take time to reward yourself. Whether it is a chocolate kiss or a pat on the back, your spirits--and self esteem--will be lifted. Write down your goals that you have achieved and look back at them when you are feeling low.
Maybe you were the first person to graduate from college in your family. Perhaps you just closed on a fantastic house. Maybe you made President of your organization. Whatever your accomplishment, allow yourself a minute to remind yourself of your worth. Keep of your family and friends to remind yourself all these people are rooting for you to succeed. Make yourself notes that congratulate yourself on handling a situation or completing a goal.
Learn from your mistakes. As the old adage goes, when life gives you lemons, make lemonade. Acknowledge where you made your mistake and forgive yourself. That constant nagging guilt will ruin your self esteem. Make the necessary means to rid the guilt, learn from your actions, and move on. Think of mistakes as happy accidents or learning experiences.
How ever you choose to boost your self esteem, know that by doing so you approve of yourself as a person. Allowing issues to get you down will only lower your self esteem further. By keeping a positive attitude, you will have the ability to turn around unsavory situations and make them positive ones. Keep in mind you are a worthy person who has a bright future.
