Episode 230 - Master Your Self-Esteem

The Art of Self-Development; Create Your Life with PD

There are several components to what we call self-esteem. There is the influence of our genes, there's our place in our social order (and how well we stick to it), and perhaps most importantly, how we progress in things that matter to us (that is, how we set and achieve goals for ourselves). All of these will reward us with positive feelings through chemicals in the brain. While some things are more easily influenced than others, there's a lot we can do to live better, fuller lives than we previously thought possible.
