How do I deal with low self esteem?

Have you ever entered into a room and felt like you are the only odd one out, do you ever feel everyone else is staring at you..even when obviously no one is? Have you had troubles mixing with the right group of people? Have you ever been so self conscious about your looks, clothes, hair, shoes despite numerous compliments before you left home? Do you have trouble speaking in public? The list goes on and on, but if you fall into any of this categories, you might be suffering from low self esteem. 
While motivational books and seminars might give you a temporary boost of confidence, they don't offer a permanent solution. What's my solution? Meditate on this words long and hard: God has not given us a spirit of FEAR, he has given unto us, a spirit of LOVE, a spirit of POWER, and a SOUND MIND. And you have all, well maybe not all,  you need to overcome, but that is the starting point.
Remember these wise words too: The day you stop been bothered about what everyone else thinks about you is the day you start living. #lowselfesteem #developtherightesteem #asktolu
