Love yourself instead of loving the idea of other people loving you.
I know what you’re thinking….easier said than done, right?
Nobody is born with high or low self-confidence. Confidence is a feeling that people develop and work on over time. For most people, confidence is something that comes and goes.
Confidence isn’t walking into a room thinking that you’re better than anyone. It’s walking in knowing that you don’t have to compare yourself to anyone. Comparing yourself to another person that isn’t even in your system there’s no thought of comparison. There is no competition with any other human. You are not above anyone, you are not below anyone. That’s confidence!
Self confidence is a super power. Once you start to believe in yourself, magic starts happening. And I’m sure you all have experienced this in one time or another where you have really felt self confidence in yourself.
When you see a negative feedback coming your way that is criticism you try to become a little defensive and that’s when you lose confidence. In this situation you should take that negative feedback in a positive manner and work on it. That’s one of the qualities of a confident person.
There’s a power in positive affirmation. When you start believing in yourself, keep telling yourself like I’m improving each day and when you continuously repeat these positive affirmations to yourself that is the power in which the magic starts happening. These things start becoming more and more true because you start repeating yourself these particular things.
When you are self confident you are also able to influence others as a self confident person. You suddenly become very magnetic personality and people are attracted to you, they are influenced by what you see and what you do. You also feel valued and turn out to be more beautiful and happier.
It is rightly said that CONFIDENCE IS THE KEY TO SUCCESS. Let’s understand why people who embrace confidence are successful -
- They know their strengths and weaknesses.
- They are people who live in the present moment. They don’t think about the past and future. They are very balanced in thinking only of the present moment.
- They stop measuring success. They don’t go on striving on success. As I said earlier, Confident people live in present and they are happy being in that present moment.
- They work for happiness, they work on relationships rather than going after the rat race of becoming more and more richer.
- They also set a lot of goals for themselves which will help them to be confident. So remind yourself to stay motivated and work on your self-esteem to make it an essential priority. Keeping these powerful reasons in mind has done wonders for me. I hope it can do the same for you.
