Changing yourself and getting a higher level of results starts with changing your thoughts. After you change your thoughts, your actions will change and the results you will get will also improve.Here are some of the most important things you have to know about how to direct your thoughts to reach higher levels of success:Your thoughts will help you reinvent your personality, start building self esteem and become empowering.It's important to reinvent yourself and your life regularly. People have the tendency to do the same things every single day. They get into their habits and routines. It's nothing wrong with having success-oriented habits. But most people have habits and routines that do not bring high levels of success to them.
Praising an athlete for his or her performance on the field, no matter the outcome of a game, can also increase an athlete's self esteem and confidence. When they win, an athlete should be congratulated for his or her victory with hugs and handshakes; when they lose, the athlete should be congratulated for his or her sportsmanship and commendable effort, also with hugs and handshakes. Showing an athlete respect for his or her performance, especially after a loss, will not only boost the athlete's self esteem, but will teach the athlete about good sportsmanship. Whether they win or lose, focusing on the athlete's strengths and what they did well will help boost self-confidence. Not every moment in life can be a victory, and teaching children how to lose gracefully can be just as important as teaching them to win.While verbal praise is very effective at boosting self esteem and confidence in young athletes, rewards like trophies, pizza parties, and team trips can also go a long way. Fun rewards that offer a break from normal, everyday routines can give athletes a sense of pride and a goal to work for. This type of reward-based system teaches young athletes that genuine hard work can result in positive gain.
Finally, an athlete should be encouraged to critique himself, instead of waiting for a coach or parent to do it. This will boost confidence and self esteem by teaching the athlete that they are ultimately responsible for their performance. If they aren't happy with the way they are performing, then they should do something proactive about it. Instead of directly telling the athlete how to improve, ask the athlete if there is anything about their performance that they would like to change, and then invite the athlete to offer suggestions for how those changes can be implemented. In this way, the athlete is taught that he or she is strong enough and smart enough to recognize his or her own faults and improve as necessary.Confidence and self esteem in young athletes can sometimes be a challenge to build and is often too easy to destroy. Those who interact with children on a regular basis must remember that a few words can go a long way in the mind of a child or teen. When discussing performance or ability with a young athlete, words should be chosen carefully, and improved performance should always be acknowledged, even if by only a few kind words.
Five Easy Steps To Build Self Esteem.Ask the Elderly to help make decisions about their day-to-day living as much as possible. So instead of making choices for them, ask how the aged how they would like to be assisted.Give them a small tasks that they are able to complete. Even something as basic as folding the face washers or the towels make the Elder feel important. Ask the aged person what they used to like doing. Did they like gardening? Or painting? Or maybe sewing. Set up activities that the person is able to take part in and enjoy. You will soon see their Self Esteem boosted.Show the person you care about their thoughts, opinions and their history. Get involved in their earlier life and share their memories. If they have photos of their life then ask if you can sit and look through the photos together.Use the Elderly person name every time you speak with them in a conversation. Try to remember that person name so that they can feel important and loved.
Building Self Esteem in Elderly Nursing Home Patients takes time and team work. From the top of the management team to the AIN, EEN, RN, kitchen staff, laundry staff and also the cleaning staff. If the same view-point comes from the top of the staff to the bottom of the staff then it will shine through to all at the Nursing Home. The Patients will feel safe, will feel the love among the staff and will have their Self Esteem in tact.There was a study carried out to see the effects of Self Esteem on Nursing Home Residents which you can read by going to this page Geratic Nursing
The cornerstone of building self-confidence requires accepting responsibility for ones unhappiness and problems. Only then, can they be changed. A survey showed that lottery winners eventually returned to their original state of well-being. Winning the lottery or finding Mr. Right provides only temporary euphoria. Ultimately, it's self-esteem and our thoughts and actions that determine our sense of well-being.The rub is that when self-esteem is low, it's painful to take responsibility. People rather make excuses and blame others, since they already feel so bad. This is really annoying to those around them and creates problems in relationships.Sandy- always procrastinated and turned in her work late with a myriad of excuses, annoying her boss. When she was reprimanded, she resented her boss, blaming him, while her self-loathing grew. By encouraging her to take responsibility for her behavior and exploring her fears and self-criticism that fed her procrastination, she was able to change her habits. She discovered self-empowerment and began to feel good about herself, and she won her boss's appreciation, as well.
If you decide upon an activity, where you have an interest or its something you have always wanted to do, then even better.We're located close to a beach here in Finland so we decided together to try windsurfing this summer. Our two boys are just beginning their teenage years and are good swimmers.What resources or support do you need to carry out the activity? For sand castle building you just need to find a couple of buckets and spades, and you are set to go. For vegetable plot creation there will be more materials to obtain: timber, soil, young plants, protective netting etc.For windsurfing, I needed to check the local beaches and find a windsurfing school who could provide lessons and rent equipment. So again there is planning to do before you can try the activity. Again you can do some internet research together. You will be surprised at how fast they can obtain the required information. Again, this is another activity promoting responsibility and greatly assists in building self esteem in children.
Let the action begin. Remember this is not a competition! The aim of the activity is to promote building self esteem in children. You want them to enjoy the activity. The more they enjoy the activity, the more they will practice. The more they practice the more they will shine. Once they excel then they really start to build high self esteem. You want to encourage them along the way. It is their effort to master the activity which must be praised, not the level they achieve. This is a hugely important point - it is the effort that is praised. This will program them that it is the effort that counts.If success comes early so be it, but the children will be programmed to keep at it until they succeed. Children truly appreciate it when parents and carers recognise their efforts rather than their results. As my 13 year old son said this week, "I'm really proud of my efforts to succeed at windsurfing. It takes a lot of practice and effort. Football is so easy; you just have to kick a ball!"
People feel more effective when they take action, and action-oriented people tend to have higher self-esteem. They take action despite how they feel. They don't wait passively for things to change or expect others to change their lives. Although self-awareness of thoughts and feelings is important, if it preempts action, it can undermine self-efficacy, and ultimately self-esteem. Keep in mind that action requires attention directed toward solving a problem, and includes journaling, expressing feelings, making a list, obtaining information, writing a letter, thinking through a problem, making a statement or decision, or even changing your attitude.Think about an area in your life where your self-esteem is low. How could you take more self-responsibility? What specific, small step would generate a greater sense of self-efficacy and make you feel better about yourself?
