Easy New Year Resolutions you will enjoy trying! 1 Stop Negative Self-Talk How many times in the past week have you criticised yourself or told yourself you’re not good enough? Train your inner voice to speak kindly, just as you would to your favourite nephew or aunty. Talking negatively about your body can lead to feeling of body shame – I’ll never lose weight; I’m stuck like this. Telling yourself you’re not good enough or will never be successful leads to low self-esteem and feelings of poor self-worth. I train people to use their mind to focus on what they want – start telling your mind what you want to achieve and make it happen. Andrew is panic free & excited about life Andrew was…

Self esteem is your sense of self worth, your sense of value. You can see how it makes sense…
