8. Reflection: Think About It
• Wherever You Go There You Are…
• I spent about 12 years of my life with someone I
didn’t like, and it was awful. I dealt with low self-
esteem for
– 24 /7 for 12 whole years .
– That is 37,843,200 seconds or
– 6,307,200 minutes
– 05,120 hours of wasted life. Either way, it’s a lot.
Fortunately, you don’t have to waste this much of your
life.

9. The STATS
• 70% of girls believe they are
not good enough or do not
measure up in some way
• 62% feel insecure
• 75% of girls with low self-
esteem reported self-
destructive behavior when
feeling bad about
themselves

Esteem Affects
Everyone
Around You

What You Don’t
Have

11. What Does Low Self-Esteem Look Like?
1. Constantly living in the past or future but never
dealing with the present moment.
2. Always wanting what it seems like you can’t
have
3. Sabotaging the success you should have
4. Thinking negative thoughts about yourself
5. Avoiding intimacy and putting on a face

13. 3 types of self-esteem
1. Global

Only you can realize the reality of whether or
not you have low self-esteem.
Take some time to Get R.E.A.L. with yourself,

Don’t try to “do good”

“You have no flaws,
check the “mirror” of
God’s word.

25. Self-Image

26. Questions to Consider
1. At this moment what does my self-image
picture look like?
2. How would my life be different if I looked
at myself through God’s mirror (His word)
instead of my own?
3. When I think about the fact that God sees
me with no flaws, how does that make me
feel?

27. L.earn to Love Yourself
Unconditionally
God’s Love for you is unchanging,
and that is the way He wants to
love yourself.
Romans 8:38-39 (NKJV)
For I am persuaded that neither death nor
life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers,
nor things present nor things to come, nor
height nor depth, nor any other created
thing, shall be able to separate us from the
love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

28. Take Off the Labels

29. Inner Beauty First
Don’t be concerned about the outward beauty of
fancy hairstyles, expensive jewelry, or beautiful
clothes. You should clothe yourselves instead with
the beauty that comes from within, the unfading
beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is so
precious to God. This kind of beauty will last, and
God considers it very special.
(1 Peter 3:3-4).

30. Inner Beauty Mantra
Inner Beauty always first.
Inner Beauty always lasts.
Inner Beauty defines my worth.

31. You Are Beyond Compare
However, when they [meaning you and I]
measure themselves with themselves and
com pare them selvesw ith one another, they are
w ithoutunderstanding and behave unw isely.
(2 Corinthians 10:12)
