Psychologists say that self-worth should not depend on the opinions of others.
As children, many heard phrases from their parents that harmed their self-esteem and worsened their emotional state. However, today’s parents can make the same mistakes and harm their children. This was reported by RBC-Ukraine with reference to the Instagram of the psychological community “Ti Yak?”
Psychologists say that self-worth should not depend on the opinions of others. And there is no point in being ashamed of your “I” because of the possibility of not liking someone.
It is important to remember that not all attitudes from parents and relatives that are instilled in us from childhood are correct.
In any situation, first of all, listen to yourself and your own needs.
The experts also named a list of phrases that everyone heard from adults in childhood, but they turned out to be false.
What will people say?
In fact, you should not care what other people say. Their image of you should not affect your life and self-esteem.
Parents often told this to everyone in childhood, but it is not correct. In addition, it affects the future of the child.
Be more modest
Psychologists say that you should not be afraid of your aspirations and limit your own ambitions. If you like to do something and you enjoy it, then you shouldn’t limit yourself and worry about what others will say.
You can’t think only about yourself
It is important to remember that you are the most valuable person in your life. Putting your own desires first is quite normal.
Don’t stand out
You can express yourself in any format that does not violate the law or personal boundaries of others.
It’s worth being yourself and not caring what others say. Don’t be afraid to show your individuality, you don’t have to be like others.
This is good, of course, but it could be better
Every person is worth words of encouragement, support without comparisons and devaluation of your achievements. A person should be supported in every endeavor in order to motivate him to even greater heights.
Being angry is bad
There are no bad emotions. Psychologists advise not to prohibit yourself from experiencing any emotion in life.
Don’t touch the man, he’s already feeling bad
Supporting a person when he feels bad is about humanity and trying to help, and not causing him even more grief.
