How to Feel Worthy
1. It might be when spending time around others or when you’re by yourself but it’s often spurred on by feeling that others are more successful, privileged or more clever than you. The following tips may help you get out of the suffering situation.
2. Comparison weakens your self-reliance and causes you to feel less than, because instead of concentrating on what you have, you only see what you don’t have. Think of a bloom—it blooms amid many other blooms and does not compare itself to all those blooms; instead it does what it was made to do—bloom.
Learn how to appreciate other people’s achievements. 3. If you appreciate other people’s work, others will always appreciate you, which is a form of respect and satisfaction that adds to your sense of self-worth.
Make new friends. Surround yourself with like-minded people. In this way, you can create your own space, and you will feel worthy.
Stop criticizing yourself. Every person has certain limits—you are not a super human who can(or even should) do everything. 4.
Involve yourself in community services, you will feel confident. 5. You will feel worthy, when you see the love for yourself reflected in other people’s eyes.
A. Avoid comparing yourself with others.
B. Try to ignore others who are surrounding you.
C. There are times in life when you may not feel worthy.
D. Instead, enjoy your own individual qualities and abilities.
E. Criticizing others does little to help build your self-worth.
F. Therefore, think of yourself before others can help you relax.
G. Often helping others further shapes and builds up your character.
