Enhancing the Self-Esteem

All the praise be to Allah, the Lord of universe. Sholawat and salam may everlastingly upon the leader of all messengers, guider and leader of us, Prophet Muhammad Saw, upon all of his families, companions, and followers until the end of the time.

And to all my dearest students of SMAN 25 Garut,
All of you possibly understand how important the self-esteem is for your own selves. Everyone really must maintain his/her self-esteem and should not let anyone underestimate and humiliate her/himself.
Naskah Pidato Bahasa Inggris - Enhanching the self-EsteemYou all might have known that self-esteem is an individual’s valuation to self-honorary through the attitudes towards his/herself that is implicit and non-verbalized and describe how far the individual valuates his/herself as a person who possess skills, meanings, preciousness, and competence. Self-esteem is truly important that always is required to be enhanced to reach for life with high dignity and pride.
Started out from own selves self-esteem will grow.
• Started from own selves
• Started from little things
• Started from this moment
There are few steps to grow and enhance the self-esteem and you can follow these steps from now on:
• Firstly, learn to always be grateful for yourselves. Although sometimes people contemn you but you should always have convictions on yourselves that you have full rights for your life and you are the one who understand the most about yourselves.
• Secondly, learn to love for yourselves. Love for yourselves means accept everything on yourselves whatever it is and learn to improve the potentials you have. Look at the positive sides of yourselves and the most important thing is to always be thankful for everything you we have.
• Thirdly, possess the positive self-image. This thing is related to self-acceptance. Self-image is way of view towards your own selves. Convince yourselves that you deserve to be success, you deserve to be loved and appreciated, and you are a special individual.
• Fourthly, do everything you consider it is important to do. Although you may feel like unable to do anything because you are too shy or scared, force yourselves out to go through that process. Have faith on yourselves that you can do it.
• Fifth, learn how to live independently. Live without depending on others so that you won’t be susceptible to rejections.
• Sixth, do not relate your self-esteem with the failures and mistakes you have made.
• Seventhly, have a right self-concept regarding self-esteem. Self-esteem comes from inside not outside of ourselves and not be found on materials we have, success we achieve, it’s because materials and success only require phantom self-esteem that will not last forever.
• Eightly, appreciate your own selves. Do not refute any simple complement said by people about us. Accept all those complements and think out further forward. Be careful of words on your mind like “I am stupid”, “I just cannot do it”, “that’s all just a dream”, “It won’t come true”. Those poisonous words will ruin your self-esteem you have been building up step by step.

That’s all you can follow to make your self-esteem enhanced. Keep your self-esteem and enhance it by following those eight recipes I have said earlier.

I wish everything I said will bring all-to-the goods for all of you my dearest students. I say my deep apology for any mistake I made on my words.
Wassalamu’alaikum wr.wb
