Investing in Your Self-Worth

By Mindy Fuchs

The second book in Mindy Fuchs three book series on self worth and esteem. The definition of self-esteem according to the 4th edition of the Social Work Dictionary is "An individual's sense of personal worth that is derived more from inner thoughts and values than from recognition from others". I like to add that self-esteem includes love for oneself not to be confused with being in love with oneself.Self-esteem is the foundation upon which we build ourselves and our lives. Foundations are the lowest load-bearing parts of buildings. They are the bases for building or creating something that is more visible. They are often underground or covered up so we can't see them, but their strength, reliability, and integrity are key for how well whatever is built or placed on them functions. A building may look sturdy and attractive, however, if it is constructed on a broken foundation, a foundation that was made from the wrong or inferior materials, or made in a shoddy fashion, it will not support the building for very long. Imagine if a foundation were made from garbage. Not only would it cause the building to crumble, it will also stink.This is the second book in her three book series and is a must read for anyone.
