Spend time with a friend - Good friends accept us as we are, love us for who we are, and provide an outlet for fun and companionship. Our best friends are a reflection of the good in ourselves.

Do something kind for someone- When you are feeling bad about yourself you tend to only focus on you. When you are kind to someone else it makes you see other people. When you do this you won't focus on your own insecurities but other peoples strengths.

Stop falling into the comparison trap:

There will always be someone who has more/ better things than you. You can't pay attention to that or else that's all you'll be focused on. You won't be able to actually see any of the improvement you've made.

Avoid the worry of others opinion's and avoid comparison to others. You are your own individual so embrace it, nobody has a true reason to judge you so don't worry. Be confident in yourself(just not cocky).

Acknowledge your achievements.

No false modesty here. You need to be realistic in order to boost your self-esteem. Look at the different areas of your life: family and home environment, friends and relationships, career, health, finances and personal growth. Each day ask yourself for three of these areas what you have achieved and write them down. Even the smallest steps count: not arguing with your mother, addressing a task you have long put off, setting up a savings account, doing your exercises. If you have a goal or vision for yourself and your life, register even minute steps in their direction.

Learn to accept compliments - For someone with low self esteem a compliment can be uncomfortable. Instead of being resistant to a compliment, tolerate the compliment. Learn to say things like "thank you" or "how nice of you".

Do What Makes You Happy - If you spend time doing the things you enjoy, you’re more likely to think positively. Try to schedule in a little you-time every day. Whether that’s time spent reading, cooking or just conking out on the couch for a bit, if it makes you happy, make time for it.

Change the perspective of your story. If someone looks at their past chapters in their life and their present and see themselves as the victim in the story, then they most likely have a low self esteem. To change that they have to look at the story from a different perceptive and see their past chapters in their life as obstacles they overcame.

Studies show correlation between exercise and higher self-esteem. It's important to our mental health and improves our body image. I know for me personally, going for a jog with my dog, seeing the sun, really boosts my mood. Additionally, on days when I exercise, I find I make better nutritional choices as well. Self-care is important to how we feel about ourselves.

Help someone else -
helping someone else often enables us to forget about ourselves and to feel grateful for what we have. It also feels good when you are able to make a difference for someone else.

Self deprecation is a major factor in most people that have a low self-esteem. Thoughts like "I'm not good enough, and "I don't matter." Have clear, profound negative affects on ourselves ability to do things like socialize around new people, work effectively, or live happily.

Compliments:
Mine is to say kind things to others. Just say a compliment to someone. This will make you fill better by making someone else's day better. Any compliment is better than no complement.

Go for good enough
When you aim for perfection then that usually winds up in a project or a task never being finished. So simply go for good enough instead. Don’t use it as an excuse to slack off. But simply realize that there is something called good enough and when you are there then you are finished.

Trust that you are competent.
Having self-doubt is a major setback when completing tasks. Don't doubt your ability, trust that you can and will accomplish your task. Have faith, so that when others may fail, you have the courage to try anyways and persevere. Don't let your fears detain your capabilities.
