Always = 2, sometimes = 1 and rarely = 0.

These concerns are likely to feed a negative self-image and could upset your chances of 𝖋𝖊𝖊𝖑𝖎𝖓𝖌 successful or positive about yourself. It is important to recognise which aspects your life you're unhappy with and decide to tackle one aspect of something in order to put you back in control.
Here are some strategies for building love for one's ownself :
● Free yourself from "should've". Live your life on the basis of what is possible for you and what feels right to you instead of what you or others think you "should" do. Find out what you want and what you are good at.
● Respect your own needs. Respecting your deeper needs will increase your sense of worth and well-being.
● Set achievable goals. Establish goals on the basis of what you can realistically achieve, and then work step-by-step to develop your strength.
● Talk to yourself positively. When you notice that you are doubting or judging yourself, replace such thoughts with self-supportive direction.
● Seek out and put yourself in situations in which the probability of success is high.
● Take chances. New experiences are learning experiences which can build self-confidence. Expect to make mistakes as part of the
process; don't be disappointed if you don't do it perfectly. Feel 𝖌𝖔𝖔𝖉 about trying something new, making progress and increasing your
competence.
● Solve problems. Don't avoid problems. Face them, and identify ways to solve them or cope with them.
● Make decisions.Trust yourself to deal with the results.
● Develop your skills. Know what you can and can't do.
● Focus on what you can do rather than what you cannot.
