THE SELF-ESTEEM MOVEMENT IS IN DECLINE
|
|
|
|
| |
The self-esteem movement has shaped generations, but the results have yet to live up to its promises. Individuals raised with an overemphasis on self-esteem often face challenges in resilience and competency, unrealistic expectations, a lack of real-world preparedness, and a tendency for psychological fixation (an obsessive focus on one's inner state).
|
|
|
|
| |
For decades, the professional narrative has focused on being and acting confident, presenting a positive attitude as a fast-track solution to eliminate self-doubt and boost self-worth. This narrative has been preached in leadership development, sales training, and management skill-building.

|
|
|
|
| |

Collaboration isn't just a buzzword; it's a crucial strategy for enhancing innovation, solving complex problems, and achieving sustainable growth. The saying "Two heads are better than one" suggests that multiple perspectives can lead to remarkable outcomes. The challenge most of us face is the willingness to relinquish our grip on our view.
