๐๐ปDo we need validation from others? ๐ฅIs that self-esteem?
Like it or nor, we are all plugged into the human condition! We do indeed crave appreciation, validation, and approval. Thatโs what it is to be human. Trying to avoid that, is the doorway to loneliness! When life isnโt working, the problem is coming from others, usually far in the past. In this world it…

โปWhy Don’t We Have High Self Esteem Now?โป
I am going to suggest a slightly different picture of this situation. All life begins with โfull-outโ self-esteem. With normal nurturing, life keeps it! People have become a special case. We donโt nurture anymore. We ignore our infant’s drive to cope with life. We no longer encourage that. We prefer obedience and believe it’s a…

๐จOur lack of nurturing is turning people destructive!๐จ
It starts in the cradle. Like it or not, all life has a need to be accepted and appreciated for exactly what it is! It’s a critical need, so powerful the words to describe it, don’t even exist. Bit by bit, we have gradually stopped allowing our children that natural right! The consequences are a…

๐จCan we get over being shy?๐จ
The usual answer is to take a chance and express ourselves anyway. That doesnโt deal with the cause of being shy. It usually trades one fear for another. There is one thing that can be done, that will actually work. This removes the cause! Can we talk about the real reason for shyness? All life…

โฎWhy can’t some people stop their arguing and fighting?โฎ
They can’t help it! The defiance keeps them out of fear. This always varies directly with nurturing! It starts in the beginning! (Doesn’t everything!) It’s always about either trust, or fear. The way we all experience the world is set up in infancy. The manipulators and fighters didn’t get any nurturing! To nurture, is to…

๐คOur world doesn’t have to be a sick place!๐ค
What do we have to do? We simply allow people to be themselves! Seriously, that’s all that’s wrong. It seems to be going unnoticed that people’s right to be themselves has become progressively more under attack! The consequences though are becoming serious enough to bury us! Respect has bottomed out! Shared feelings are rare. Even…

๐Self-esteem and confidence, we can talk about it now!๐
Having confidence along with high self-esteem is the consequence of being lucky. We all have an identity. It uses instincts, feelings, all of our senses, and awareness of our inner condition and the world, to power and guide us in all of our efforts. As an infant and young child there is no such a…

๐ฅฐDo we want to be our ideal self?๐ฅฐ
There’s a far better self, which leads directly to the most happy and meaningful life possible! Our own real identity is the best self we could ever hope to get! Unfortunately, we donโt get to live our identity, not these days! It’s because our civilization has forgotten how to nurture. Not living our own identity…

๐๐ปOur quality of life is on a downhill slide! Why?๐๐ป
We have forgotten how to nurture! We should be supporting every new life in its own efforts to flourish! “In it’s own efforts”! That’s not what we do any more! That’s one little thing. It has changed our civilization! It has destroyed trust! Generation after generation, we feel less “approved of” by others around us.…

๐The easier it gets to look in the mirror, the more value our life has!๐
Our world is populated with people who hurt. Being immersed in it brings out the worst in people! As we accept the moral compass of this environment, our lives feel increasingly pointless. Want to feel naturally important? Our own, original identity can do that for us. We have to dig deep, and really listen for…
