Tips on How to Build Self-Esteem in a Girl

How to Build Self-Esteem in Girls—

With the creation of Journal Buddies, I am excited to share with you an exciting and new approach to journal keeping that is, well… quite simply exhilarating!

It’s called shared, creative journaling, and it comes with a special focus that helps you to build and strengthen a child’s self-esteem in less than ten minutes per day.

This is a simple, easy-to-use, and highly effective journaling system (don’t let the fancy name intimidate you). It’s a wildly fun, highly interactive adventure in journal keeping!

Ten Keys to Building Self Esteem
in Girls with Journaling

• Build Self Esteem Key One: Focus – When using this journal, the focus of conversation between you and your child is placed directly on the positive qualities, traits, and talents your child possesses.
• Build Self Esteem Key Two: Time – Allotting a time specifically for you and your daughter to complete a journal entry demonstrates your commitment and love AND conveys a powerful message that shows just how much you value your precious child. Your gift of time to your child is truly invaluable.
• Build Self Esteem Key Three: Sharing – Life takes on a deeper meaning once we learn the art of sharing our special-ness (our unique gifts) with others in our life whom we love and trust. That is why Journal Buddies is all about sharing the good stuff that you like, love and enjoy about child WITH your child in a very active and formalized manner. The act of sharing, in turn, brings about amazing results in your child’s skill and ability to both identify and share her magnificence with you!
• Build Self Esteem Key Four: Celebrating – Openly celebrating our good points is a skill that must be taught and practiced until it becomes a very comfortable habit. While you and your child enjoy a journaling adventure this skill is taught, modeled and practiced until your child becomes an absolute expert and has mastered the vital life-skill of celebration.
• Build Self Esteem Key Five: Creative Expression – Absolutely everyone is a one-of-a-kind unique expression in this world. Taking the time to express that uniqueness through creativity powerfully reinforces this incredible fact of life. That is why creativity is a major piece in making this journal keeping experience an adventure in journaling.
• Build Self Esteem Key Six: Healthy Habits – Habits are formed through repetitive actions and each of the 30 journal entries in the Journal Buddies book help to establish the healthy habit of looking for and celebrating one’s goodness as well as the goodness of others.
• Build Self Esteem Key Seven: Choice – Choice making is a powerful force and a life-changing skill. Model for (and in the process teach) your child how to make good choices in a practical and experiential way through your shared Journal Buddies experiences.
• Build Self Esteem Key Eight: Relationships – When you and your daughter share this journal you will each openly and actively practice building a healthy relationship. In other words, you will demonstrate the “HOWS” of healthy relationship building. And, if you already have a great relationship with your child the bonus is that you’ll make your relationship even stronger!
• Build Self Esteem Key Nine: Connect – This shared journaling experience is a creative way to ensure that your child feels connected to you in a deep and profound way at least once per day!
• Build Self Esteem Key Ten: Communicate – The guided format of this journal opens the door to positive, reinforcing communication with your child. This is the most powerful key for you to ensure that your child not only hears but also listens to the great stuff you love about her.

With Journal Buddies I have truly re-invented journal keeping and brought creativity, excitement and purpose to a wonderful, powerful and life-changing activity.

I hope that you are as excited about these fresh and innovative journals as I am and invite you to leave a comment below about thoughts and insights!

Here’s to improving your child’s self-esteem.
