Here something to ponder before the new semester start its play. Have you thought of why some people can achieve anything they want? How some people can do anything whatever they want? Well, let me share you one answer, it is self esteem..  During our old school time, I believe that teacher and you thought self esteem is defined by how well a student can stand up and talk in front other student, how well a student can debate, how good a student can do public speaking. And those who become a loyal listener, the one that only sit and watch the speaker, the one that loyally support their friend during their debate competition, must have a slightest feeling that they don’t have a great self esteem as their friend do. And they wish, they can be the same. Arent you?

But now, I want to tell you that, ‘self esteem’  is actually about how much you like yourself. Yes, how much you like yourself. That is self esteem. Giving you a scale of 1 to 10, can you answer how much you like yourself? Don’t tell me your answer is 8 or 9 or 10 IF you still feel insecure and jealous when stumble upon fair skin instafamous people. Ops. But yes, that is our biggest society problem nowadays. Then, you start saying, ‘I am not as beautiful as her’, ‘I am not as rich as her to own all beauty traits’, so on so forth.

Who said you cant own what you want, who said you cant be who you want, it is all in your mind. How much you like yourself, is the crucial factor of your personality and every single thing that will happen to you. You and I need to like ourselves first no matter what. Embrace yourself. Embrace your weakness, embrace you speciality. Embrace your perfect and imperfection. And GO, MAKE THE CHANGE!

Once you start to like yourself, it will determine your performance and effectiveness in any area that you encounter in. Liking yourself will drive a sort of confidence in you, when you do something, that makes you feel what you’re doing is right and worthy. Even if it turns out wrong, you learn your mistake in positive way and keep improving yourself, But if you dont, in anything you do, you will start to question, ‘am I doing this right?’, ‘is people will like what am i doing?’. All those question will come and attack, because you’re not liking yourself, you feel intimidated, you will always have a thought that others will do better than you, and you're drained away by your own insecurity. In simple word, When you like yourself, you will perform at your best.

‘But, isn’t like having high self esteem, is like being full of yourself?’

 I often heard those whispers, ‘perasannya dia tu..’ when I stood up and voice out my opinion and I did feel quite offended. But I found that,  Oprah Winfrey said, ‘being full of yourself is a gift, you can do everything’, while others can just do something, right? Being full of yourself means you are high self esteem person.But, still let us keep the harmony between human-being alright?  Care less about people words, and move forward.

Before I started posting my guitar cover on Instagram, I was so contemplating, I know my voice doesn’t sound that good for singing, but it is something that I really want to do and want to break my own wall, and I know, that is me, not someone else, and I like how I sound like, I don’t have to really care for those who not liking it, and I accept hows the world rolling, which  not everyone will like what you’re doing, but there will be who do like it.*now you guys must be annoyed with me level 100000 hahaha*

All in all, let us like ourselves more, appreciate ourselves. Then, lets empower each other. No matter how unpleasant looking you are, once you stood up and present yourself, you have my support. Lets not be the human-judge, because the social media (Instagram, Facebook, etc) has already tear many soul's self esteem in silence
