Encouragement, Confidence, and Self-esteem

I may not only be the one suffering in being not confident about myself and having low self-esteem so I decided to write about it.

Having been in this long journey alone of fighting myself and pushing myself down, I realized that I am the only one who could help myself.

Confident people are not only eager to put in the time and effort to improve, but they are also willing to accept that they do not - and cannot - know it all. There’s much more about having the proper mindset and perspective about the world, particularly our society. It's preferable to be aware of when you require assistance rather than not. It takes a certain amount of self-assurance - specifically, self-assurance in one's ability to learn - to be willing to accept that one requires direction or support.

The very first step is to admit that I am not perfect, but so is everybody, and that is perfectly okay. Flaws and imperfections make us beautiful, we don’t have to hide and appeal to the standards built by the society.

On the other hand, don't let your modesty keep you from doing what you want. There are many adventures out there, you don’t have to keep yourself away from the joy that life could bring to you just because you are too different from the rest.

People are frequently preoccupied with what others will think of them that they fail to concentrate on what they have to offer. Failure is a part of life but remember that you can’t be a failure forever so you have to fight for what you want – for your dreams. When you see your worth in the eyes of others, confidence is no longer about self-promotion but rather about helping others. In fact, the word "confidence" is no longer appropriate. It's all about having a goal. Consider focusing on the unique viewpoint you bring to the table rather than worrying about what others might think of you or your work.

Building self-esteem and confidence might be hard but it always starts with the first step and that is deciding that you are ready to go out of your comfort zone and make a change in your life.

Ask of someone who is interested in your development and progress as well as the quality of your performance about her thoughts on the subject. It is important to have someone looking after you while you make this great change. It could be your sibling or closest friend but just be certain to choose people who will provide completely honest feedback - It is important to note that when performance reviews are just favorable, we lose faith in them. After that, you can utilize any true favorable feedback you receive as a talisman. Also keep in mind that some people require more assistance than others, so don't be afraid to ask for help.

Don’t let other people tell you otherwise. Of all the people in the world, you’re the one who truly knows yourself so build a character out of it and be confident wherever you go.
