“You could have been clearer in your email.” Nothing unkind, and yet the whole day is ruined.
A small voice rates everything we do, and how others see us does the rest: the gauge rises and falls, wearing us out. This module goes back to the source: our worth never needed proof; it has always been whole. What remains is to stop putting it at stake with every comment we receive.
~20 min at your own paceKey skill: Self-EsteemAvailable in FR + ENNo prerequisites
What you’ll take away
- the difference between what you are worth and what you can do
- a way to receive compliments and criticism without shaking your core worth
- the move from comparing, which belittles, to contemplating, which uplifts
Who it’s for
Anyone who wants to build self-esteem that no longer depends on the feedback they receive.
Learning objectives
- Distinguish self-esteem, which concerns a person’s worth, from self-confidence, which concerns skills.
- Identify the two mirrors that make the gauge rise and fall: the inner judge and how others see you.
- Receive a compliment or criticism by naming what it affects: an identity, never your core worth.
- Contemplate a colleague’s talent without comparing yourself, and take concrete actions of self-care.
