Developing Self Worth

Personal Development by Chandrasekar Vaidyanathan

How to develop a hefty self worth? And why is necessary?

Because, self worth is the greatest mental armour one can have to handle easily whatever adverse situation one faces in life.

With a strong self worth, one will not take any rejection, negative criticism or unwanted comment/gossip by others personally. Besides, it can remove one's shyness to socialise and will help them to avoid comparisons that give rise to jealousy. It will support one to stand firmly on one's values and ethics even when devils of temptation dance around. It will help to keep one's head held high when all about the place people feel sick worrying about the future.

If it is such a panacea for all ills in life and also a great path to happiness, what prevents people from developing it?

The first reason is the society. It includes one's parents, siblings, friends, and others influenced by the ubiquitous social media catering to popular public appeal to sell impractical ideas and false notions that every woman must always look beautiful and every man must be bold and brawny.
