For adequate self-esteem, you need to know yourself well enough. Know not only the bad about yourself, but also the good. What are virtues? These are qualities that put you on a high level and make you pleasant or necessary to others. But how do you form the right picture of yourself? Consider as many factors as possible.
Grading systems
In the world of personal characteristics, there can be no absolute norms that would regulate that a given person, for example, is benevolent. It is up to you to decide what degree of courtesy will be considered necessary in order to acquire the said characteristic. In general and in general, it is better not to discard the quality according to the “I can - I can’t” principle, but to put points from one to ten for each property. Or better as a percentage, it already depends on how many nuances you distinguish in one quality or another. What properties attract people in the first place? Advantages of communication, that is, the ability to communicate. And the skill of working according to the "win-win" scheme.
Communicate well
Whatsuch advantages are communicative? This is, first of all, the ability to read the emotional state of other people and try to predict the change in this state as a result of certain influences. And if recognition can be learned on special sites, then forecasting is a matter of practice. The more you communicate, the better you will be at being pleasant in communication.
Learning the mind
The second number in the list of the necessary qualities are intellectual characteristics. What is it? Advantages, including a store of knowledge (erudition) and the ability to apply this information in new situations (actually, intelligence).
How to improve these indicators? Good old math will help you. If you haven’t counted in your mind for a long time, set an alarm clock on your smartphone that requires solving problems to turn it off. In two weeks, an intellectual breakthrough is guaranteed! The baggage of knowledge is replenished solely by reading and watching educational programs. Higher education is the best way to form this characteristic. However, it doesn't help everyone. Self-discipline is also needed, but this is another area.
Power characteristics
What are the virtues of the volitional part of the personality? This is the ability to become the perfect executor of your own decisions. It is also the ability to switch off from amazingly interesting tasks in favor of not very attractive activities. This should also include the ability to work smoothly and stably, regardless of the quantity and quality of personaldram. You become something like a robot - and gain a lot of advantages over the "average person".
There is also another term for self-importance. Do not confuse this concept with the previously described characteristics of the individual. What are virtues? These are properties that exist objectively, regardless of the desire of the observing person. But dignity is a concept that exists only within the framework of society. Outside of society, this phenomenon does not happen, it is formed on the basis of social interactions. People around establish the right to the dignity of the individual and respect or do not respect the bearer of certain qualities. In developed countries, this right is included in the legal system and is protected by society as a fundamental one.
