Here's how I did it. I took a long hard look at my grandkids, and I realized that babies are born with perfect self-esteem. They have absolutely _nothing_ unworthy in their self-image.
Well.... I was born the same way. Naked and stupid. So all of my unworthy feelings I must have learned somewhere along the way. Anything that I learned, I can un-learn. Once I figured that out then I did the "Healing the child within" stuff that you read about in all the self-help books. I talk about it a little bit here.
