Honoring the Self by Nathaniel Branden Phd

From the acclaimed author of The Six Pillars of Self-Esteem comes a powerful guide to growing your self-confidence and creating a more fulfilled life.

The challenge to honor the self calls on the heroic possibilities of our nature-on the will to think, to understand, to remain true to our understanding, to struggle, to endure, to persevere, and to remain open and responsive to life, sometimes in the face of dread, despair, confusion, and loneliness.-from the introduction

What is the most important judgement you will ever make? The judgement you pass on yourself. Self-esteem is the key to success or failure.

"Tell me how a person judges his or her self-esteem," says pioneering psychologist Nathaniel Branden, "and I will tell you how that person operates at work, in love, in sex, in parenting, in every important aspect of existence-and how high he or she is likely to rise. The reputation you have with yourself-your self-esteem-is the single most important factor for a fulfilling life."

In Honoring the Self, Branden offers comprehensive, thoughtful advice for raising your self-esteem and teaches you how to-

. Grow in self-confidence and self-respect.
. Nurture self-esteem in children.
. Break free of guilt and fear of others' disapproval.
. Honor the self-the ethics of rational self-interest.

Self-concept is destiny. Using the sage advice and self-reflective prompts in Honoring the Self, you can discover the power of personal transformation and build a better life.
