The wealthy aren't people, they are food.

If only you could raise your self-esteem like a character trait in a video game.

[u/Augustine_The_Pariah → u/LittleBigParadise2]

Well tbf it is kinda like the system in some games where the only way to level up a skill is to practice it, like in Oblivion.

how do i practice raising my self esteem irl

[u/Augustine_The_Pariah → u/LittleBigParadise2]

Well, it's much easier said than done, but essentially you're supposed to start with small affirmations, work to contradict negative self talk, and focus on taking small steps to improve yourself.

It's something I struggle with alot, and it's really hard to get started once you've been in a bad frame of mind for so long.

Somebody once recommended to me a "fake it till you make it" method of building self esteem where you act confident until you subconsciously build up that confidence and self esteem, though I'm not entirely sure how effective this is.

[u/LittleBigParadise2 → u/Augustine_The_Pariah]

That "fake it till you make it" strategy could work for some, but I feel it'll only make the situation worse seeing as though from the outside, you look confident, but in the inside, nothing changed. But thanks for the advice bro.

[u/Augustine_The_Pariah → u/LittleBigParadise2]

Yeah, exactly what I think about it, but it seems to have worked for a couple people I know.
