Loosid Sober Tip of the Day Jun 07

How do we get back our self- esteem?

This is a very common question with a very simple answer.

In our active addiction, self-esteem is one of the first things to go. How do we gain back our self-esteem? By doing esteemable acts.

Focus each day to doing an esteemable act. Reach out to a friend who you know is struggling and simply let them know you are thinking about them and they are not alone.

Go up to a homeless person an offer to buy them a cup of coffee or sandwich if you can afford it.

Ask the cashier at the store their name. Wish them a great day.

We tend to severely underestimate the power of simply recognizing a person and acknowledging them as an equal. Why? Because we are all equal.

Little acts of self-esteem will build momentum. Before you know it, you will be beaming with self-esteem.

This is an amazing app that truly uplifts you. I plan to help my parents with house chores after work, take the dog for a walk and try to put myself out there by meeting someone new, and will do my best to make at least 3 people smile today with nothing more than showing kindness and compassion!! God is good !! Amen
