I really like that would you hang out with yourself one. That point really makes you immediately aware and is such an easy shift to make. When you say negative thingsin your head just stop saying them and say something positive.
"If your thoughts inside your head all-day was a person, would you befriend that person?" Wow, that was a incredible wake up call to actively take responsibility of the thoughts I engage in
What a great video! Really interesting and I loved the personal examples. Finding it difficult to decide on the best point as there are so many. But the affirmation 'I am enough' really hit home. Thank you.
Love love love the idea of there being two types of people in the world- those who need tightening and those who need loosening. Boy did I need loosening 10 yrs ago- yay loosening! I'm a different person🙌🏼
Great video, Clark! Thanks. My comment is that in my point of view there is a little difference between "esteem" and "confidence". Confidence reflects the way I can do something. Cheers and all the best
Clark, been following for several years now on and off. Going to start watching videos here every day. Always love the content!! You're a great dude, keep it up
Clark. you deserve all the success you have and have yet to achieve. I have watched you a month now and appreciate your time and overall attitude. Dont ever change. Thank you Graeme. Vancouver Canada
I believe you should not "kill" your inner pessimist (or try to kill anything related to you), I propose to think about it as an ally that helps you check if there's something wrong about a particular situation or environment. Thanks for this vid!
Smart,tall,dark and handsome with deep voice and a type A personality what else can a woman ask for😍 Greeting from Mexico. Ps Great book by the way,thank you😚
I'm glad I found this. I am reading it now and your take on it with the author's take has really helped me consume the information quicker. Thank You. Subscribed.
Awesome video. I just realized that How great I am cuz I would love to hung out with myself. I used to think that I am not good enough, it s a journey that being aware of what is going on in our own thoughts. Well done Clark!
one of the most valuable, informative, beneficial contents in a youtube channel, keep it bro, all the respect from an Egyptian man living in Ukraine ;)
By the way, I love the new and more professional looking videos. I like the suit, background, extra editing, etc. And the suit makes you look older and more serious.
It is healthy to accept your shortcomings. However, be careful who you share this information with. Also, never share your humiliation with anyone. Someone can use it against you.
Enjoy your videos Clark - I sent this one off to one of my former probation youth who struggles with self esteem among other issues - I've pick up a number of your book suggestions including putting a hold on "Steal like an Artist" at my local library - thanks
Thank you for sharing, got into your link thru Jon and Missy mentioning about Nathaniel Branden. I AM ENOUGH, obviously, will screen shot 1530mins- 1615mins

Thanks, Prism! I try to use all independent artists via soundcloud. Changes video to video - but a typical tracklist looks something like: SONGS USED: "Runaway" (Pierce Fulton) “youknowme” (Eli Filosov) “drift” (TREGS) “flood” (TREGS) “perth” (mi Ka Remix) “refute” (nimino) “Back of Your Hands” (nimino)
I would like to know if this particular book falls under the category of public domain or if it is still protected by copyright. It is important for me to understand its status because this will help determine if I can freely use or share it without needing to seek permission from the copyright holder. Can someone clarify whether this book is in the public domain?
I disagree with you on what assertiveness is. It is not some sort of belief in yourself. I would say that assertiveness is willingness to disappoint or hurt others so that you get what you deserve or so that you do not get taken advantage of. Basically, sometimes you need to be a bit of an a-hole. This is something people do not want to hear nowadays because society abhors overly aggressive and pushy people. And also, as kids, we were constantly conditioned to please others. We had to please parents, teachers, relatives, etc. If we asserted ourselves over the wishes of adults in authority we would get scolded and punished. So in order to not be a-holes, many of us went to opposite extreme and became doormats. That is not good either because there are people who will take advantage of you. There are many situations where you need to assert yourself to be treated fairly. Realizing that I had to be a bit of an a-hole was a magic bullet that immediately improved my life. The day I came to that realization was the day I quit this church committee that I did not want to do and that was taking up a lot of my time. While becoming a bit of an a-hole does take a bit of effort, it was still the easiest, fastest, and most effective self improvement hack that I found.
Mirza Borogovac self assertiveness is the willingness to bring yourself into reality in contrast to being timid for fear of others opinions and reactions to you
It’s important to differentiate between being assertive and being an asshole. You can get the benefits of being assertive without being an ass. Assertiveness is taking action and responsibility of your ambitions without being hindered by others. This can be done from a place of confidence and kindness. Being kind and being a push-over are not one in the same. Being as asshole is a mental/emotional position, stemming from a “knock everyone else down so I can stand taller” type of mentality; as opposed to just building yourself up higher.
"No other individual or group has the power to determine how I will think or feel about myself." Thats powerful! Love this summary.
"Mistakes are not grounds for self-damnation." great quote!
Mistakes are a normal part of life and the steps to success.
I have used the quote "I am loveable, I am love able" it's also really cool to look yourself in the (in the mirror) when you are telling yourself these things!
Number one thing is to not take life too seriously. Life is your playground don't be the kid who doesn't play, and just sits there.
morgan martindale i love that
morgan martindale yeah through a lot of my life it was always living life in my head, and not actually living. that doesn't really help.
We should participate
As long as it's done consciously and with purpose.
"Dont take life seriously" is probably the stupidest life advice I've ever heard, life is the highest value and should be taken seriously
"My life belongs to me" wow.... love that! ❤
I read the book years ago and felt it was a great book , I recommend it to everyone. Nathaniel Brandon in his book said a confident person is benevolent because he or she knows who she is and has nothing to prove to others. The book was enlightening if you want to improve yourself as a human being.
Underrared author. All his books are gold.
You forgot the 7th pillar he added at the end of the book, which is the love for your own life. Great review, I really admire it!!!
To me, the root of all and most important pillar of self esteem is self love, which he mentions as the 7th pillar . Also recommend reading “Love Yourself Like Your Life Depends On It” by Kamal Ravikant .
That is one brilliant man!
“ Not to get woo woo” lol. Even though many hate to admit it, on some levels, the woo woo works, and you just admitted to it😊
Love how well you break everything down. .plus you're freekin easy on the eyes
Thanks so much Silvia - and I'll take that compliment!

I heard a great quote once in yoga that stick with me just like you with your character quote: "don't waste a breath"

Esteem is self-love
Arrogance is comparison
Self-sabotage, self-prophecy
Nothing is enough/good enough
Wired to be pessimists, seeking threats
Live consciously
Engaged in what you’re doing
Therapy - Tightening w/ structure,
loosening in our head
Improve what we can change
WOULD YOU HANG OUT WITH YOU
Self-responsibility
Learned helplessness
Self assertiveness. Be who I am openly.
Believe in yourself
Teach people how to treat you
Stand up for yourself
Live purposefully
Growing or dying
Don’t be afraid to look foolish.
Ditch the need to look important
I have the right to exist.
I am of high value to myself.
Love these videos. Have learned a lot from these books that you go over. On my own personal self-improvement journey. Ash

Thanks, Prism! I try to use all independent artists via soundcloud. Changes video to video - but a typical tracklist looks something like:
SONGS USED:
"Runaway" (Pierce Fulton)
“youknowme” (Eli Filosov)
“drift” (TREGS)
“flood” (TREGS)
“perth” (mi Ka Remix)
“refute” (nimino)
“Back of Your Hands” (nimino)
