All the ways I’ve seen promoted (like listing what your good at) doesn’t work for me.

Why do you ask for something that you know will not work for you?

Pardon? I'm asking for ways that aren't like the one I described. Writing down everything I like about myself or can do well doesn't help boost my self esteem, it just makes me feel like a failure in comparison to my peers

I'll post in a bit. Gotta catch a bus. Here's a bit to get started.

Comparison is a bitch man. You're looking at others and making constant evaluations and instead of specifically noting the differences and why in context of a specific skill or achievement.

Example (good):
> His trigonometry skills are pretty good, mine are slow. I wonder how I could improve my skills...

This kind of thinking goes to constructive directions. If you short circuit someone being better into a detraction from a nebulous concept of self worth then it just goes wrong.

Example (bad):
> His trigonometry skills are pretty good, mine are slow. I'm such a shit person. He's so much better than me.

What would trigonometry skills have to do with your character as a human? Well there's an answer to why your skills and self worth are connected for your mind.

Writing skills or qualities and myself is only painful if I have been feeling pretty sad emotionally. Or if I haven't been working on the things I know are important to me.

Questions to you:
> What do you value as personal qualities in individuals? Which ones do you feel are lacking in yourself?
> What skills are important to you? What are you working towards now?

And if I know the things stopping me, barriers, then I'd go and figure out how to remove or reduce those barriers.

If it's not a practical problem then it's psychology tripping you up man. And that's ok.

Psychological
> The logic of your psyche (thoughts/mind)

Just a flow chart in your head and some part of it is making it hard for you to live and succeed at your goals. I hope you don't feel any taboo surrounding the word.
