Everyone wants to feel secure and appreciated by others. We also need to feel good about ourselves. When we lack self-esteem, it is sometimes hard just to get up in the morning.

There may be lots of reasons for feeling unworthy. But the good news is that by changing our thinking we can have higher self-esteem -- which in turn can lead to more self-confidence and control of our life.

Remember the title, The Subject is Me. These lessons can help you think more clearly in areas that lead to higher self-esteem.

You can start with Lesson 1 or continue on to Lesson 2. The "index" link at the top of each page will let you explore the different topics in each lesson or review them as needed.

Notice the buttons under the videos. They permit replay, pause, and text to appear.

As you go through the lessons, the pictures in the mirror -- just like your thinking -- will become clear. And by the time you finish Lesson 2, you will be feeling good about yourself!
