This is a YouTube video titled "The Cure for Low Self Esteem, with Eckhart Tolle" containing a spoken presentation or talk by Eckhart Tolle recorded in June 2025. The content focuses on concepts of consciousness, self-esteem, and positive affirmations, exploring the nature of self-worth beyond personal limitations.
You are the consciousness of the universe. You are a focal point of that consciousness. Of course, the consciousness of the universe pervades whole space, but you are a focal point of that consciousness. Appearing temporarily under the guise of a person. Not for too long. Then the person evaporates like a soap bubble, it goes pop. Many people have a problem with self esteem, with thoughts arising that say, I'm not good enough. I'm not as good as those people or that person. Not as good looking, not as physically strong, not as knowledgeable, not as intelligent, not as popular. But when you, of course, you could work on self esteem on the level of the person with limited success, some success, yes, you can repeat affirmations. I am good enough. I am good at everything I do. I'm getting better and better. Every day, in every way, I'm getting better and better. No doubt, that is. That was one of the first affirmations that somebody came up with a long time ago when books started to appear about positive thinking. Yes, it is a positive statement. Every day, in every way, I am getting better and better.
