Today we will share some examples of different approaches to self-evaluation: self-reproach, reduced self-criticism and adequate self-esteem.
Let’s start.
Self-reproach: This is horrible! How could I screw up like that!
Reduced self-criticism: Oh well, it could happen to anyone, there’s just a tiny bit of damage.
Adequate self-esteem: I made a mistake. How can I fix the consequences and make use of this experience in the future?
Self-reproach: It’s all my fault, only my fault…
Reduced self-criticism: I have no problems! And if someone doesn’t like something, I don’t care!
Adequate self-esteem: Where are the borderlines of my responsibility in this situation?
Self-reproach: Who needs me like that?
Reduced self-criticism: Nobody is worthy of me!
Self-therapy can be an essential tool for personal growth and self-improvement.

You are not sure where to begin?
Adequate self-esteem: I’m all right. Yes, I have my flaws and issues, but I have the power to deal with them.
Self-reproach: Nothing ever works out for me…
Reduced self-criticism: The Universe just hasn’t sent me the right chance yet.
Adequate self-esteem: I can… And I’m still not very good at…
Self-reproach: I could have done better…
Reduced self-criticism: I do everything perfectly! What’s your problem, I don’t get it?!
Adequate self-esteem: I did a good job. I can do things differently and improve my result next time if I want to.
Self-reproach: How could I do this???
Reduced self-criticism: I don’t give a damn.
Adequate self-esteem: I’m not happy about my actions.
But I chose to do this, so there must have been a reason for that. We need to figure out what it was.
