Genuinely confident and happy women are the ones with high self-worth. But how do they come to be that way? Are some women born with a more straightforward feeling of value? Or do they make a routine of acting a certain way, which helps to keep them feeling optimistic regarding who they are?

If you talk to women with great self-worth, you find several factors in common. Women who feel good about themselves tend to think a certain way. Let's look at a few ideas that keep women feeling worthy even when life gets complicated.

They Understand Where Mistakes Fit

Every woman messes up now and again. The women with self-worth recognize this. They show accountability for their actions but acknowledge that just because something went wrong does not alter who they are as people. They still respect themselves even when they make mistakes.

They Do Not Get Caught in the Trappings of Life

Who you are has much less to do with what you have than you may think. It does not make...

It seems like we live in a dog-eat-dog society. We are always so concerned about ourselves that we fail to look at the big picture. It is almost like we no longer embrace a sense of community. We do not have compassion.

The trouble is, compassion is a powerful emotion, and it has many benefits.

1.  You Will Be Happier

Showing compassion to others is not simply altruistic. When you support someone else, it boosts your happiness. A study from Harvard showed that donating money can make you happier than using it yourself.

2.  Makes You More Attractive

Studies show that positive personality traits like kindness and compassion increase people's perceptions of attractiveness. People rated headshots more attractive when attached to a quality like compassion.

3.  Improves Your Relationships

Being compassionate is a key to solid relationships. Whether personal or professional, people will be more comfortable and receptive to you if you show...

Time is the great equalizer. You have 24 hours to use each day, no matter who you are. However, these hours are mostly already spoken for - for many women. Between sleep, family duties, work, and - if we are lucky - a little socializing, there is not much time left. Any time we do use, we must use it well.

Simple tips that can help you avoid wasting your time:

1.  Stop Saying Yes If You Want to Say No

Do you ever find that you take on more than you can handle? Try saying no a little more often. While it is essential to be a good friend or a team player, you do not have to take on every task someone asks of you. If you take the time to do someone else's work, you lose that time somewhere else in your life.

2.  Focus on One Major Task Each Day

I am not suggesting that you only do one thing per day, but it can help guide a light goal. Think about one thing or theme to focus on that day. When you are in-between tasks, you will not find yourself...

Women can control time management well by finding their lost time. Lost time is when you did not even appreciate that you were squandering it in the first place. It is almost like keeping change in a piggy bank, and one day you know it, you have over $100!

1. Do not waste the time that most people do.

There are ways to find a time often unnoticed because women tend to think about time management as their big blocks of time available. But you can do a lot in just ten or fifteen minutes.

Do not waste away the time you have while waiting at the doctor’s office or exercising. For example, if you enjoy using a treadmill, you can get a standing desk to work on something with a fast-approaching deadline while you walk.

2. Appreciate that not everything that appears crucial is.

Sometimes things only seem important. Examine your life and stop doing the things that are not critical, and drain your time. If something is not a matter of being happy and succeeding...

When you are living in the moment, your focus is on that moment only. The past and the future cannot touch you.

It is a difficult task to put your feelings about the past or future aside. It is like when someone says, "Don't think of a hippo in a pink tutu!" You thought of one just now, didn't you?

Well, your grief is sometimes that hippo in a pink tutu, and it seems like there is nowhere to turn. In these situations, you can look for help by thinking in the present moment.

Staying in the present takes practice. While you are learning how to live in the moment, remember that it gets easier as time goes on.

Using Meditation

You can control your thoughts. One practice that is all about staying in the present moment is meditation.

This easy practice can also assist you in getting over your grief.

Meditation tips:

• Create a meditation schedule - 30 minutes daily.
• Go to someplace where you are alone and can relax.
• Sit in a position...

What if I told you I would give you $1,000 to make a significant public speech? Would you take me up on the deal? Like most of us, you most likely recoiled at the idea right away, even though it may well be lucrative for you! Why didn't this idea appeal to you?

When the very notion of certain activities evokes fear or anxiety within you, it is because they are outside your comfort zone. Public speaking, for example, is outside most people's comfort zone.

Our comfort zone is the sphere of actions we feel comfortable with and can achieve with no negative emotions. It also consists of people, places, and things that bring about only positive thoughts within us.

How Important is this Comfort Zone?

A comfort zone may limit your capabilities and make you abandon your dreams and goals. Or, it can drive you on to great things. Your comfort zone can define both your personality and your promise for success.

Countless successful people achieve their goals...

Learning to let go and forgive is a noble act. It can help you have peace with yourself and others. However great the benefits, though, it is not always an easy thing to achieve.

Minor transgressions are easy to forgive and forget. But then there are the big things for which you may feel the need to cling onto for long periods. You might tell yourself that you have let it go, but ultimately you have not. In these challenging situations, there are techniques that you can use to let go and find peace finally.

Learning to Forgive

It is essential to learn to forgive. Holding onto resentments or hatred only hurts you. It can lead to foul moods, depression, or even health conditions. When you hold onto resentment, you allow a situation to burden your future.

Forgiveness is the right choice to make, but it does not mean that you have forgotten what has happened. You might even still hold someone else accountable for the wrong. With forgiveness, you are simply...

At least 90% of people will tell you that they do not relish change. Change is not easy because people are creatures of habit. You want to continue living in a specific schedule once you have conditioned your body and mind to function in that way. This makes you feel secure with your surroundings and decisions.

Even if you do not like change, there are ways to make healthy lifestyle changes easier. You can also use tools to welcome change into your life, even when entering new uncharted territory.

Here are three ways to make lifestyle changes easier for you:

1. Establish the Pros and Cons. If you recognize that you need to make changes in your life and are not looking forward to doing so, you can carry out a simple exercise that will make the transition simpler to handle.

Take a sheet of paper. On one side, write "Pros." On the other side, write, "Cons." On the corresponding side, you will note the pros and cons of the change to see the benefits and...

Happy - a state of well-being and contentment that we reach when we feel satisfied.

This so-called ‘pursuit of happiness’ is a mission that takes most women the majority of their lives but never really seems conquered. We put a lot of energy and thought into things and people supposed to make us happy, to find out that they can’t.

Your attitude impacts your entire life. Your career, happiness, relationships, and satisfaction are all affected by your attitude.

Do you generally have a positive attitude? Are you an optimist or a pessimist? How do you think this influences your life?

Use these 12 strategies to maintain a positive attitude:

1. Plan your exciting future. Having a future that excites you makes it easy to feel optimistic about life. Even if things are challenging today, you can look forward to an exciting life.

2. Motivate yourself. Think about the kind of life you would like to live. Plan your future and ensure...

Criticism is a double-edged sword. On the one hand, it can improve you, but on the other hand, it can shatter your confidence if you allow it. Understanding how to deal with criticism is vital to improving yourself in both your personal and professional lives.

How does it feel if someone criticizes you? Maybe you have had someone criticize your work effort or personal aspects of your life. You might feel hurt or angry, and you may even become defensive.

There are so many times when we have to deal with criticism that it’s essential to learn how to deal with it. Indeed, you don’t want someone else’s opinion to prevent you from having a happy and productive life.

Dealing with Constructive Criticism vs. Destructive Criticism

The first action in dealing with criticism is to figure out whether it is worth considering. Sometimes we may mistake personal attacks for criticism. They are not the same!

• There are two forms of criticism: ...
