Manage episode 416981726 series 3476165
We live in a world of self-help books and self-proclaimed experts advising us on how to find happiness and fulfillment. Additionally, we are often encouraged to follow someone else’s experience to enhance our emotional well-being.
But what happens when another’s journey is not in accord with our ideals or goals? Where do we find peace and purpose based on our individual beliefs and purpose? In an article entitled The Six Pillars of Self-Esteem by Nathaniel Branden, we are encouraged to silence the cacophony of the outside world and to listen to our head and heart for guidance.
Cultivating the six pillars of self-esteem is an inside job. Regardless of other’s well-intentioned directives, developing the ability to live consciously and purposefully with integrity, responsibility, and assertiveness must come from within. No one else can script our lives; we are responsible for living with integrity and authenticity.
Explore with us as we unpack the 6 pillars of self-esteem and suggest ways to embrace and enhance your own life journey.
