    Redditor u/.Jhin_khada.This is 'Learn To Love Yourself' from the list '15 People Share Tips To Improve Self-Esteem'.

    I made the first step to loving myself when I was broken. I had a lot of nonsense then. Then Riot Games released 'Jhin', and I took parts of his personality. Now, I feel more confident and overcame everything. This helps me face my current situation.

    Redditor u/.princessawesomepants.This is 'Get A Lovely Pet' from the list '15 People Share Tips To Improve Self-Esteem'.

    I got a corgi during the pandemic. The unconditional love and joy he gives me are huge (he cuddles on my lap now). I see how happy he makes people when I let them pet him outside. Sharing that love makes me feel great.

    Redditor u/.Salt_Entertainment97.This is 'Focus On Your Strengths' from the list '15 People Share Tips To Improve Self-Esteem'.

    I listened to attractive girls in school say they felt ugly. Big lesson. Why be attractive/cool/smart if no one feels good about it? Everyone has strengths and weaknesses. You can focus on your strengths and enjoy your wins.

    Redditor u/.Empath-I-Think.This is 'Learn To Accept Compliments' from the list '15 People Share Tips To Improve Self-Esteem'.

    I am actually learning to accept compliments.

    I learned this by viewing compliments the same way I viewed criticism. Then I saw people rarely give compliments to feel better. People give criticism because they see themselves as better than others, not because they are judging. But when they say you are good at something, they mean it.

    This helped me give myself more credit. Compliments show I am improving.

    Redditor u/.PassengerWave.This is 'Learn About A Specific Subject' from the list '15 People Share Tips To Improve Self-Esteem'.

    Learning.

    I set a goal to know a subject. I researched it. Once I feel good about a subject, I tell my girlfriend. She listens closely. I do it just to feel happy, but I appreciate it.

    Improvement comes by:

    I let go of things outside my control. I focus instead on building strength daily.

    I changed my hairstyle. I found one I wanted. I asked friends their opinions. Nine out of ten thought it was a bad idea. I did it. I feel better now.
