Self-esteem is the level of respect you have for yourself.

This is hugely important for each of us to know what is most important - our self-image or our self-esteem.

Self-image is something we pursue in form of achievement, accolades, and success.

Self-esteem on the other hand ensues as an outcome of our efforts and character.

Dr. McKinley discusses the problems with presumption and projection.

I believe we create much of an anxious feeling when -

We procrastinate and put off what we have agreed to do.

How understanding the origins of fears can help mitigate stress and anxiety in your life.

There is a level of blaming and excuse-making that is so deeply ingrained in the mindset of an individual that it is nearly impossible to change. It becomes so chronically expressed that it permeates a person’s mindset, personality, and social expression. This is the perpetual victim. Perpetual victims seem to be doomed to live a life of victimhood, and it is almost impossible to see it ever changing. For many victims, victimhood is a life sentence.
