Helping others has also been shown to help ourselves. Encouraging and supporting others’ self-concept can not only have a positive impact on their overall well-being and confidence but in turn, creates genuine connections that can feed into your own life when necessary. With this in mind, here are some practices you can do to help encourage others’ self-concept:

Offer genuine praise and recognition – When someone does something well, make sure to acknowledge their accomplishments and offer genuine praise. This can help boost their self-esteem and encourage them to continue working towards their goals.

Provide constructive feedback – While it’s important to offer praise, it’s also important to provide constructive feedback that can help someone improve. Be sure to offer feedback in a supportive and non-judgmental way, focusing on specific areas where they can improve.

Listen actively and attentively – When someone is sharing their thoughts or feelings with you, make sure to listen actively and attentively. This can help them feel heard and validated, which can increase their confidence and self-esteem.

Celebrate their strengths – Everyone has unique strengths and talents, and it’s important to celebrate these qualities in others. Encourage them to pursue activities that align with their strengths and offer support and encouragement along the way.

Be a positive role model – Your behavior and attitude can have a significant impact on others’ self-concept. Be a positive role model by practicing self-care, setting healthy boundaries, and maintaining a positive outlook on life.

By incorporating these practices into your interactions with others, you can help encourage and support their self-concept, leading to increased confidence, resilience, and overall well-being.
