Abstract

This book does two things: It tells one how to recognize, build & protect self esteem & it tells one how to become vastly aware of one's self. The words "Self Esteem" are bantered about so frivolously that it's plain to see that the general populous understands neither its meaning nor its value. Losing weight, looking better & being nice to your neighbor are simply "cosmetic" esteem enhancers. BE SOMEBODY" is the result of a fifteen year study which began as an investigation of practical everyday awareness. It became evident that the more aware a person becomes, the more he can control his spiritual environment, the more he can accomplish & the more his self esteem will grow. Part of the development involved field testing in adult educational facilities. Awareness involves everything from recognizing time & action, to knowing one's abilities, to acknowledging location of where things occur - where you sit, where you share your various relationships & the types of relationships, themselves. Awareness also involves recognizing & knowing the level of interpersonal communications. And strangely enough self esteem involves the very same items! And you mean to tell me that "BE SOMEBODY! A PRACTICAL PHILOSOPHY FOR ALL TIMES" will do all that? You bet!
