Showing results for "Why" in Self-Esteem

Millions of otherwise smart people lack the confidence to achieve their full potential - at work, in their careers and even in their personal pursuits.

Many of us share a shameful little secret: deep down we feel like complete frauds and are convinced that our accomplishments are the result of luck rather than skill.

Does it ever feel like there's a hypercritical, negative voice inside your head, telling you that you aren't good enough, pretty enough, smart enough, or worthy of success or love? Negative self-talk is all too common, especially for women. This inner critic originally served an important evolutionary purpose—to ensure survival. The problem is, this voice can be difficult to "switch off," leading to anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem. So, how can you move past negative self-talk and start living with confidence?

In I Hate Myself: Overcome Self-Hatred and Realize Why You're Wrong About You, internationally known assistant professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School Dr. Blaise Aguirre tackles the pervasive and often ignored issue of self-hatred.

The system trained you to obey—not to win. It's time to flip the script. This isn't a feel-good self-help book. This is a tactical strike against the lie you were raised in. If you're under 30, you're standing at the crossroads of your entire future. One path leads to regret, wasted time, and playing catch-up for decades. The other? It's earned. It's built. And it starts with unlearning everything they drilled into you. The truth? School taught you how to memorize—not how to think. How to follow rules—not how to build your own. How to chase approval—not how to earn freedom.

Everyone has those difficult blank moments sometimes. Whether in your personal life, career or relationship or in a public situation, writer's block, social anxiety, imposter syndrome, being off-form or having an identity crisis can affect anyone at any time. It's part of the human condition, and yet it can throw us off course and make us feel helpless. Giles Paley-Phillips and Jim Daly host an informal, insightful podcast in which they chat to well-known people from comedy, acting, writing, broadcasting, politics and sports about their careers and how they get through these moments.

Is this the way love is supposed to feel? Does the man you love assume the right to control how you live and behave? Have you given up important activities or people to keep him happy?

If the questions here reveal a familiar pattern, you may be in love with a misogynist. In this superb self-help guide, Dr. Susan Forward helps you understand your man's destructive pattern and the part you play in it.

Co jakis czas kazdy z nas spotyka sie z krytyka. Krytyka (lac. criticus – osadzajacy) powinna byc analiza i ocena dobrych i zlych stron z punktu widzenia okreslonych wartosci (np. praktycznych, etycznych, poznawczych, naukowych, estetycznych, poprawnych), jako niezbedny element myslenia wraz z opisem wyników tego myslenia i rekomendacjami, radami oraz wskazówkami do zmian.
