HOW TO BUILD YOUR SELF-ESTEEM? HOW TO LOVE YOURSELF UNCONDITIONALLY?

The million dollar questions! The questions everyone has have a simple answer. And (even better)...it has the answer every human difficulties can be tackled with and overcome.

Sometimes it is easier to answer a question by saying what the contrary to the question is. So what does grind our self esteem, what does destroy our self esteem?

What is low self esteem? A person with low self esteem acts like a dog trying to bite its tail. Why? Because what activates low self esteem is fear.

And when we act from fear we go round and round in a circle and the more we act in fear the lower our self esteem becomes. Why? Well, because when we act out of fear we act dishonestly. And when we act dishonestly we lose our integrity.

Have you ever met a dishonest person who is successful? I haven’t. The basis to love yourself unconditionally is being rigorously honest.

A lot of people here will argue over this, I bet, because there is a lot of misunderstanding on what being honest really means and a lot of people find very difficult to admit they are being dishonest. We all are. Some of us say: “I am rigorously honest, I always tell people who have wronged me how much did not like what they have done and how badly they treated me and what I think of them, etc etc etc... I am being honest!”

No, you are not! Sorry to disappoint you!You are not being honest, you are being a victim...

Being honest means being honest to first being able to recognise our feelings, to accept they are our own creating and secondly to express them (it does not mean to blame someone else, or a situation, for creating our feelings - to do so it only means we are being victims).

All the feelings we feel are connected to something we have experienced in the past.

Being honest means to be brave (and not a 'moaning victim') and to have the courage to feel our feelings and share them with others, to share how we feel about a situation or a behaviour.

Owning our own feelings.

Once we are honest in this way we'll grow in self esteem, quite quickly.

We will be loving ourselves unconditionally because we will recognise our feelings and we validate them and we will express them.

We will admit we are a human being and we'll accept our flaws, we will accept our vulnerability and in this acceptance we will became invincible, we will be strong as a rock.

And once our self esteem is there we can take any risk because the shame of low self esteem is gone, it has disappeared forever.

CONNECTED

There is a transparent line, like an umbilical cord that goes from me, my being, my soul towards the world outside and it feels, and perceives it, and we become one. I am connected. I am present now, to this time and space, into this time, into this space. I am time, I am space. I feel it, is it still, like the water of a lake, still, like the full moon in the sky, sometimes, like the air after the snow; in this stillness, and under the surface of everything there is the beauty of life, the emotions, nature, persons and places and my story, who I was and who I am now and who I have been in between, including all the uphill roads and the sprints downhill and the cold air in my face. It all makes all sense now because I am exactly where I want to be and where I allow myself to be and it has always been this way. Dani Tringale Image - "God is in the Air"

HOW HONESTY, FAITH & COURAGE ARE CONNECTED

What does stop us to find the courage to be honest? Fear What is fear? Lack of faith, is the believe past experiences are in our presence, is it an defective interpretation Why do we lack faith? Because we had some experiences where we could not see faith working in our life Why we did not see faith working? Because we were expecting a different outcome, we could not see that that outcome was the only possible one, because it had a reason, for us to see the truth, where we were standing So it did work? Yes, faith works all the time, we just have to try Why some of us cannot see that faith work all the time? They need to build the belief that everything they face is given to them to feel their emotions and release the emotions and be free Once we are doing this work we will know that faith exist and we will see the astonishing beauty in our life

HOW SHAME AND GUILT ARE CONNECTED

We all feel shame, even those who try to avoid feeling it at all costs. Shame is a good feeling, it helps us understand when we have acted against our values, against what we believe is correct, when we have acted with a behaviour that is not always adhering with the idea of justice, but more connected to what we have been told is 'right' from our family or our culture which generally is reflected in our family belief system and drive our actions. Shame is just blame reversed toward the self. If we stop blaming ourselves for being imperfect (or for having made the same mistake over and over again) we will not feel the shame. Because there is not shame to feel if there is not wrong doing. The problem then is to analyse which are our values, our beliefs and our actions and if they are really something we 'should' really feel shame for. For example we could feel shame for 'abandoning someone' when separating from a person, or for not 'being helpful' even ...

A LITTLE LONELY LOVE AS BIG AS THE UNIVERSE...

Dani Tringale Image - "Destination" There was a time when I thought I had found the love of my life. It was a wonderful time. It was the most beautiful time of my life. The love time. The joy time. The happy time. The miracles time. The cuddles time. It was the TIME. There was a time when I had found the love of my life. The Love is still there, all the rest is gone. So, now, there is this lonely Love, sitting alone and hoping to be able to give, to caress, to give tenderness and attention and love. What else a little lonely Love, as big as the universe, can do? It is a big love this lonely little love, it is as big as the universe but its breathing is shallow because it tries not to feel the loss of the "love giving crap" that it is so much longing for. It is also longing for a person, a face, their skin and their happiness, it is longing to make them happy and more happy and more happy. It is a stupid sad little Love that has strange ideas and believes in mirac...

THE DILEMMA

Dani Tringale Image - "Light & Darkness" His life had not been wasted, in the dept of desperation he had to dig deeper, to find the gold, his true self: was it the essence of his soul? What it an invisible, all permeating substance expressing uniquely though his own uniqueness? What was it, if not love? What was it, if not the creative assertion of a benevolent God? What was it, if not the freedom of the spirit, the expression of a joyous invincible child governed with self love and attention to move to his full potential, to find his unique way, himself, his beauty, the universal reason he was placed here, like all of us, to serve and express gratitude to God through realising his own unique creative essence; a joyous child, contained by wisdom and humbleness, and moving, into the realisation of his own perfection, exactly as he was when g...

THE CAGE OF SHAME

It was when he was a child, this little boy, called JJ, that he was placed in a cage of shame. The cage was built slowly, a small bar was placed first at his feet so that when he tried to move forward, towards a better place where he could still make mistakes without being judged, or mistreated, he tripped over it, just because he dared, to be human. The cage was built slowly, like a plastic object built on a D3 printer. The first layer was built when, for the first time his mother didn't praise him when he got an A at school. He interpreted that omission as being told he was not good enough and he felt a shame he could never forget. From that moment he interpreted every gesture and every omission as directly saying to him: 'You are unworthy'. The emotional neglect, the physical abuse and the abandonment did the rest. So to cover up the shame, the shame of being himself, the shame he did not want to feel because it burned his soul and hurt, like boiling oil poured on t...

LITTLE RED HOOD & THE WOLF - A MODERN STORY OF OUR TIMES

Once upon a time Little Red Riding Hood met the Wolf. The Wolf was masked as a Sheep and Little Red Riding Hood, who never met a Sheep before (or a Wolf) could not recognise the difference between a Sheep and a Wolf. The Sheep was very sweet with her and Little Red Riding Hood found the sheep adorable and she fell in love with him immediately as Little Red Riding Hood generally do being very naive and needy of love and attention. Little Red Riding Hood was very loving and caring, and loved the Sheep fragility and the unconditional love the Sheep showed her at the beginning; later in the years, Little Red Riding Hood fall in love and learned to accept all the character defects of the Sheep, including his older age, his unawareness and the inability to to self reflect and his disproportionate reactions when he was pointed out some drawbacks. During that period little Red Riding Hood thought and wanted to believe that the Sheep was sweet and that the Sheep wanted the best for her as much ...

THE THOUSAND ROADS HE TOOK

He stopped looking at the past with nostalgia. It happened suddenly, a day when he was in his hometown where he grow up as a child, where his memories laid, the ones which we tend to believe are defining who we are and the way we look at the world, the ones which limits us until we became a little more limitless by stepping in the unknown and taking a risk we have never took before. What made him step into the unknown was the pain of the comfort zone, the place where everything repeated itself over and over again, in a trauma cycle of which we all are most unaware of, the place where there is nothing new, but only the past, and the nostalgia. That day, in that moment, nothing in that place meant more to him than what it would mean to anyone else who was not born there and did not have any memories attached to that place. Yes, he loved the Neoclassic buildings and their splendor and their magnificence which he used so many times to feel better about himself; and the sea and the win...
