Learning to be proud of yourself

Image
It's all very well wanting to please family, friends, colleagues, employer but self-esteem starts with YOU .  If you're not proud of yourself and don't believe in yourself then how on earth can you expect anyone else to invest in you. This is something I've struggled with from time to time, as I'm sure we all have.  We go through periods of thinking 'hell yeah, I'm on fire' to 'oh my god, I'm a failure'.   In terms of work, the last 18 months have been particularly difficult, as like most other people, I've felt this constant need to be 'visible' and wanting to show I'm 'adding value' .  It's been an uphill battle at times and there's been a few 'no-one knows what I do' moments and, as a result, I felt like I was losing my confidence and self-esteem. A few blogs ago, I gave a little hint that I was doing something new in terms of my self-development and confidence.  So, in a bid to get on top of this...

Lockdown, laziness and lippy

Let’s be honest, since working from home, have your clothes become comfier, baggier, contain a lot more Lycra?   Has your image gone from glam to grim?   Do you now consider walking from the lounge to the kitchen and up the stairs a full-on workout?  Have you become a bit more angry with life? Lockdown: To be honest, I feel I’ve got off quite lightly and that’s down to a number of reasons but mainly keeping myself busy. As we all know, lockdown has affected people in many different ways. What have I changed? We’ve all been negatively affected in some way by lockdown but, unlike most of society these days, I prefer to keep a little mystery in my life.    The longer this drags on, the more creative I’ve become with my time. I’ve come up with new routines for home and exercise. I’ve kept busy plotting evil sessions for my fitness clients.   I talk to the people I need to when I’m having a bad day but no-one else needs to know the minutiae. What can you change?...
