Relationship- Be better in your own eyes than in the world: Positive self image will improve relationships and career, 10 self love tips

Everyone wants to be successful. But only a few people get success. Others keep waiting for success their whole life.

What is the biggest difference between success and failure? What is it that makes one person successful and another unsuccessful on social standards?

Well, a whole list of these can be counted. But in the world of psychology, 'self image' i.e. opinion about oneself is considered the biggest reason for success and failure.

In conversations or motivational lectures, we often get the advice that how important it is to like yourself. But the question is how to like yourself. How to prove yourself to be good and better in your own eyes.

Today Relationship We will try to find answers to these questions in this column.

What is self image and self compassion

In simple terms, self-image means our perception about ourselves. What we think about ourselves, our abilities and our dreams is our self-image.

On the other hand, self-compassion is associated with positive self-image because sometimes self-image can also be negative. When a person stops trusting himself and his abilities, in such a situation, along with mental-physical well-being, his relationships and career also start deteriorating.

According to a report by Psychology Today, in a state of self-compassion, a person is alert towards his own interests, needs and dreams. He does not compromise much with himself to please others. He tries to be better in his own eyes before proving himself to the world.

This state of self-compassion and positive self-image is also beneficial for mental-physical well-being and all types of relationships.

Christopher Aby, author of 'How to Feel Good About Yourself', suggests these tips to improve self-image:

Keep in mind, positive self image does not mean narcissism

It is important to note here that a positive self-image should never reach the level of narcissism. When a person becomes adamant about his image and behavior, he stops seeing his mistakes.

He is unable to improve himself even if he wants to. His thinking towards the world becomes negative. In such a situation, narcissism starts taking root in the nature of that person. Unlike a positive self image, narcissism has a negative impact on relationships, career and mental-physical well-being.
