    Revealing! May need help...by Anonymous

    August 17, 2009: Self Esteem is a self-help book for the "regular" person. It is offered as "do-it-yourself" therapy w/o the therapist, although I really feel a therapist would help a great deal in explaining a lot of the reasons the book offers as to why we have such low opinions of ourselves. I needed to re-read the chapters several times to understand some of the concepts, but then, I am not a therapist or psych major who would be more familiar with the reasoning behind these explanations. This is not a quick fix type of book and involves a lot of time and dedication to be successful in building the readers' self-esteem, let alone the constant practicing of the concepts to ensure the concepts "work" and take hold. I think this book would work best for the reader when done in a program with a therapist.

    December 15, 2008: Each individual manifests self-esteem, or the lack of it, differently. Generally, people with strong self-esteem had parents who nurtured them constantly during their early childhood, while those with low self-esteem often did not. Can people with low self-esteem build it as adults? Yes, because self-esteem is how you feel about yourself, and your thoughts control your feelings. If you take command of your thoughts, you can take command of your feelings, including your sense of self. In this fine book on self-esteem, Matthew McKay and Patrick Fanning show you how to banish regressive ?stinking thinking? and the nasty inner critic that inevitably tries to flatten your self-esteem. You can use their instructive ?cognitive techniques? to elevate your self-esteem, develop self-assurance and feel better about yourself. getAbstract finds McKay and Fanning?s book warm and practical. If their self-esteem is high, there?s a good reason.
