“Trying to be what you are not is degradation.” — Maxwell Maltz
The quickest and surest way to lower your self-esteem is to pretend to be someone you’re not. Whenever you try to be someone different than who you are, you are secretly judging and finding fault with yourself. When you fail to accept your self the way you are, you are putting your self down. Self acceptance is an essential aspect of good self-esteem.
