Jealousy and Self Esteem
Jealousy and low self esteem can be linked in two ways:
1. If you have low self esteem this may contribute to you feeling that other people are better or more attractive than you. This can fuel insecurities you have in a relationship, or anxiety that your partner may be unfaithful to you, leading to jealousy in situations where you fear that your partner, or someone else important to you, is giving attention to another person. It can also lead to you being envious or resentful of other people when you think that they have things or qualities that you lack.
2. Whether or not you already have low self esteem, if you experience jealousy this can cause low self esteem or make it worse for you, because you may feel bad about the fact that you are feeling jealous and acting in jealous or irrational ways towards your partner or someone else.

Feedback on Overcoming Jealousy - A Practical Guide "I bought the book to help with my irrational feelings of jealousy. I found that it gave helpful, practical ways of dealilng with jealous behaviour. I am applying the strategies suggested in the book to my situation and am working on changing my thoughts and behaviour accordingly. The balancing thoughts have been especially helpful. My relationship is improving." - Sheila, UK "This book unfolded step by step how my reactions don't work and gave me tools and things that I have written to reread that calm my irrational worries. I need to rewrite in on an 3x5 card and carry it! I was struggling with jealousy problems that kept arising, such as not being able to deal with triggers - now I can notice them for what they are. My partner also is jealous too. Talking about triggers to him calmly also helps him. I never told him about this book. Perhaps I should fess up! The book enlightened me to ways to stop and understand that my past is my past. The person in front of me isn't going to hurt me. Nothing that they have done deserves my questioning. I deserve a better life without worries. I still have problems but they are less and I am calmer. Overall I think this book is very informative and enlightening. It's a wonderful tool to free one self of shame and gives a helping hand to create healthy relationships." - Dee, United States "Very easy to follow and already I am pausing more before reacting to a situation." - Chris, UK "I bought the book to help with jealousy in my relationship and self esteem issues. It gives good practical advice, not airy fairy! It provides practical steps and things to do. It helps me to keep the emotional feelings out of the way and to see clearly what I have to do." - Sue, UK "The book has helped me to find alternative behaviours to deal with my extreme jealousy. I found it easy to use and understand." - Charlie, United States "Low self esteem due to recent events led me to start behaving in a way I didn't like. I wanted to 'nip it in the bud' before it escalated. I liked the parts where you fill in the spaces and have your own affirmation at the end. I liked the use of language, very simple, easy to read and very motivating. It read as though you were saying it which helped as well." - Kate, UK "I found the book very helpful, well written, good exercises. It helped me to address the real reasons for my feelings and then helped me to identify practical ways to avoid these feelings." - Laura, UK |

Feedback on the Self Esteem Techniques "The affirmations helped me initially to make me look at myself in a more positive way and be aware of my achievements and qualities. I have got a lot of my confidence back again... ...Giving my Project Plan a name which pinpointed how I needed to direct my efforts was really helpful. I can be a bit of a Peter Pan type person and having concrete techniques such as the Balancing Thoughts to try out was good for me and helped me to focus on the outcomes I wanted and on how to achieve them. This enabled me to avoid going into an emotional rut... ... My friends had got used to expecting me to be emotional and rant and are quite surprised by the new Sonia! I’ve let go a bit now and found that it gives me more control and I feel much more relaxed... I am happier with myself now and my relationship is way better than it was." - Sonia, Bristol, UK "Previously I was very tired..My mind was all over the place with contradicting emotions...I was very confused about my relationship. I now feel more confident. I am more aware of my positive traits...[Now] James and I are making more of an effort in our relationship and I am also exercising more...I am more able to look at the positive aspects of my own character and my future. I know that I can achieve my goals." - Beth, London, UK "Hi David Thank you for the exercises and forms. They have helped me a lot. I now have techniques to combat unrealistic and negative thoughts and will be giving this a good go." - Mark, Hertfordshire, UK "I bought the book for my coaching practice a week or so ago. It is very well laid out and I find the sections and instructions clear. I am planning to use the ideas in the book to work with clients on their self esteem." - Susan, West Midlands, UK |
eBook No.3: How to Be Assertive
Being assertive involves:
- Expressing your views clearly and articulately without being aggressive
- Standing up for your own and other people's rights in a reasonable and clear way
- Giving other people a reasonable opportunity to express their opinions without allowing them to dominate a conversation
- Having the courage to express your own feelings, even about difficult issues, in a way which is respectful and honest.
How to Be Assertive is a unique guide to becoming assertive covering 5 different approaches to improving your assertiveness skills.
Problems with Assertiveness
Problems with assertiveness usually fall into two contrasting types
1. Passive behaviour - where you have a tendency to want to avoid conflict or you feel that you shouldn't express your own feelings or thoughts, with the result that you go along with what others say or ask, without paying attention to your own needs.
2. Aggressive behaviour - where you have a tendency to dominate conversations or to ignore other people's views and seek to control what others do by dictating to them or telling them what they must or should do.
Sometimes it is possible to swing from one type of behaviour to the other - particularly if you have a general tendency to be too passive. This can lead to a build up of frustration and anger which can eventually come out in an aggressive way.
