SELF-ACCEPTANCE VS. SELF-ESTEEM • SELF ACCEPTANCE------Embracing all facets of ourselves; strengths, weaknesses. Acceptance of our humanity. • SELF-ESTEEM-------How valuable/ worthwhile we see ourselves.
PERFECTIONISM A disposition to regard anything short of perfection unacceptable.
DAVID BURNS, MD • “Remember that fear always lurks lurks behind behind perfectionism. • Confronting your fears and allowing allowing you yourself the right to be human can be human ca paradoxically, make you a happier, make you a f more productive person.”
SYMPTOMS OF PERFECTIONISM 1) Judgmental 2) Chronic dissatisfaction 3) Controlling 4) Negativity 5) Anxiety 6) Depression
PERFECTIONISM AND ITS SPECIFIC FEARS • Rejection • Failure • Success • Inadequacy
TOOLS FOR SELF-ACCEPTANCE • Accept yourself like you would accept a good friend • See your “bad” traits in a positive light • Stop judging yourself • Allow yourself the luxury of failure
PARADOX OF SELF-ACCEPTANCE AND SELF-ACTUALIZATION THEY REQUIRE-------- HUMILITY: “The state or quality of being humble; freedom from pride and arrogance; lowliness of mind; a modest estimate of one's own worth.”
“Humility does not mean a person is low in self-acceptance, is self-sacrificing or self-critical. It is self-assurance that is without self-centeredness and which has the courage to value other people.”
SELF-ACTUALIZATION • Self-acceptance • Humility • Leadership/ Service to others • Cooperation • Joy • Humor • Passion • Energy
