Self-esteem, basically how we feel about ourselves, is the psychological issue that most affects our overall daily life. Everyone needs positive self-esteem to succeed in the world, but poor self-esteem and the pain and suffering it causes are surprisingly widespread. This well written and easy to understand book, written by an experienced clinical psychologist, will give you the information you need to feel good about yourself. The four elements most critical for positive self-esteem are respecting yourself, accepting yourself, loving yourself, and having humane and reasonable standards and expectations for yourself. There is no need to be perfect (in fact, we cannot be perfect), but you can feel much better about yourself!
