Deep dives

Building Self-Worth and Unlearning Self-Esteem

The listener asks how to gain a greater sense of self-worth and overcome the belief that they are average. The therapist explains that self-worth is inherent and not dependent on achievements or external factors. Self-esteem, on the other hand, is earned and can change based on circumstances. The therapist encourages the listener to unlearn the belief that certain attributes or achievements define their worth, and to focus on viewing themselves as inherently good. The process involves examining one's beliefs, questioning the causation versus correlation between beliefs and outcomes, and seeking individual therapy for personalized guidance.
