🗺️Day 16: Wall of Self-Esteem Quotes🗺️
As part of our August initiatives, we are discussing self-esteem. This the Wall of Self-Esteem Quotes. Since this is the Around the World Community, I wanted to stress that self-esteem is universal, shared across borders, races, religions, and genders. I have provided eight quotes and proverbs from across the world to reflect wisdom for self-acceptance and self-love.

"Acceptance and Commitment Therapy is based on a dramatically different assumption: the normal thinking processes of a healthy human mind will naturally lead to psychological suffering. Youre not defective; your minds just doing what it evolved to do."
"I can do something thats important and challenging even if Im feeling anxious or depressed."
"Putting myself down is pointless. […] what I need to do is to take action: brush up on my skills or ask for help."
"Naturally, at times those demons will steer you off course. (Why naturally? Because youre a normal human being, not a saint, guru, or superhero.) But heres the exciting thing: the moment you realize your boat is headed in the wrong direction, you can instantly turn it back around."
"The reality is, we can find an infinite number of good and bad stories to tell about ourselves and, as long as were invested in self-esteem, were going to waste a lot of time in this chess game, fighting an endless battle against our own limitless supply of negative thoughts."
"Because of the way the human mind has evolved, the not good enough story will always return in one form or another. Do you want to spend the rest of your life battling it? […] to lead a rich, full, and meaningful life doesnt depend on self-esteem in the slightest. […] Dont try to prove yourself. Dont try to think of yourself as a good person. Dont try to justify your self-worth."
"When we move in a valued direction, every moment of our journey becomes meaningful. So engage fully in everything you do along the way. […] The values-focused life will always be more fulfilling than the goal-focused life because you get to appreciate the journey even as youre moving toward your goals."
"Commitment isnt about being perfect, always following through, or never going astray. Commitment means that when you do (inevitably) stumble or get off track, you pick yourself up, find your bearings, and carry on in the direction you want to go."
