Hi! I have a HUGE problem with my self esteem, insecurity and trust. Everyone tells me to "work" on myself and not worry about what others need. How do you begin to do that? I've always helped other people out but there seems to be a mental block when it comes to talking to myself and learning to love myself and get to actually know the person inside me that everyone says is so "great". Any advice?

hi vmarshall.
start by seeing yourself as others see you.
i see a beautiful woman.
and stop thinking or saying anything negative about yourself.
if you wouldnt' think it or say it to a best friend then don't of yourself. it's hard, and takes time, but it's worth it.
we have re-train our thought processes.
pay attention to your thoughts, and change them to a positive thought.

i would focus on that block you have. what makes you feel insecure? what is the block? are those insecurities anything you can change for your own peace of mind, for the better of your self being? i believe "working" on oneself means pausing your life to FOCUS on you. what makes you tick, what are your dislikes and likes. discovering what it is you do not like about yourself, and what is making you feel the way you do about yourself. take time to stop and smell the roses, stop and smell yourself. smell how beautiful you are, and what you like about yourself.

hang in there girl. :)
