Give Yourself a Pat on the Back

We tend to give so much more attention and emotion to our failures than to our much deserved successes.  Think back to when you were a child.  If you were playing quietly with your siblings, your parents probably just let you be, but if a fight broke out you got in big trouble.  The A’s on your report card may have gotten you a simple pat on the back, but the D’s meant you were scared to go home.

Most of us have brought this way of being into our adult life.  Our accomplishments get very little recognition, yet our failures haunt us as we replay them again and again in our minds.  If you spend too much time beating yourself up for the mistakes that you have made, you are putting it out to the universe that you are a failure.  The law of attraction will then respond and bring you more dissapointment and failure.

 It is imperative to your self esteem that you acknowledge your wins.  You should give just as much, if not more, energy and emotion to your successes than you do to your failures.  Make a list of your wins, the big and the small, you can refer to this list whenever you need a self esteem boost.  You will soon find that you are vibrating with an energy of success and the law of attraction will bring you more of the same.
