Becoming a good team leader in SFI, or any pursuit for that matter, takes time. Similarly building self-esteem is a process which can't be completed overnight.

The good news is that working on one can benefit the other. As your leadership skills develop so will your confidence and self-belief, and as your confidence and self-belief grow so you will become a better leader.

There are many good books and courses available on both leadership skills and developing self-esteem. What

In general, low self-esteem is usually due to a failing to meet someone's standards who you look up to such as parent, teacher or peer-group. Negative experiences can cause a person to hold negative beliefs about themselves.

Here in SFI, there are lots of people to provide positive support to help you become successful. The Ask SC is one such means to find that support. The SFI forum is another motivational spot to find positive support to become successful.

Sometimes, poor

If you are here and asking the question you are doing a lot better than many many affiliates. They signed up and then never came back. Remind yourself of that and take your self-esteem up a notch or two. Give yourself a pat on the back for doing it.

Remind yourself about everything you did well in the past, the things you are good at - self-esteem boosters. More importantly - you have to recognise your good qualities and use and enhance them. Appreciate yourself. Work on

You are already a good observance, for noticing your weak points.

Which means, you have the potential to become a good team leader soon, as long you add few elements to practice such as the '5Ps' :-

Positive, Patience, Passions, Persistence and Perseverence

From my view, this two 'Low Self Esteem and Lack Experience' can positively be solve if we follow our SFI trainings, well.

To improve your experience, I suggest you apply and learn all SFI resources

One can become a good team leader in SFI if he/she have low self-esteem and lack experience by going through the testimonials of fellow affiliates, reading the forum and Ask SC section and understanding how other fellow affiliates who have quit SFI in some point of time for some reasons have come back and became a winner and what they have to tell about SFI.

A good team leader with low self-esteem and experience should devote more time in reading and understanding vast amount of materials

Thank you for this question because it is one that most people wrestle with, me included. The lack of experience is the easier of the two to answer because SFI provides us with the tools and information that we need to become a good team leader. They even provide templates of the letters that we need to send to our team. All we have to do is to utilize the tools and learn the information. As we learn and grow, we will gain experience and the experience that we gain will lead to confidence in

This is a great question. There was an answer to it in the Forum yesterday. It was from one of our sister affiliates. It spoke on releasing old negative thoughts from your mind and letting new positive and innovative thoughts enter. It also spoke on really begin to love yourself and believe in yourself to the point that you have faith that you can do anything or be anything you want to be. Do not feed into any negativity.

If friends or family attempt to discourage you, turn a deaf ear

Hello!

You can't be good team leader with this way of thinking. Really. To be good team leader, you should be first Good person. Under Good I Mean to think good of yourself.
You should treasure yourself more and why low self-esteem? Look back for what you have done till now. You did the best you can. That's all.
Low self-esttem breaks when you see your small victories in every area of your life till now. Once again - You did what you could do and you still do the best you know.
