Self esteem boost ideas

[lizker]

My low Self esteem is directly tied to my alcohlism. At the height of my alcoholism, i was just nasty, hygiene wise. I would not clean the kitchen or the house for days or weeks.
Since i no longer drink, i thoroughly scrub my apartment clean.
I have noticed that i am turning into a clean/neat freak lately. Surprisingly it feels sooo good in terms of self esteem boost.
Losing 11 lbs is also giving me the confidence i once had.
Iam investing in a new wardrobe. More money than i would spend but there is something about being "well put together" that is very empowering.
Co workers and people you come into contact daily treat you with respect and admiration when you are "on point"
Please share your self esteem boosting ideas/ tricks.
