How to believe in yourself and gain confidence
In order to become a happy and successful person, many people lack only faith in themselves. There is also a desire, motivation, goals, plans, but it stops only insecurity in itself and in its forces. Accordingly, your subconscious gradually begins to remind you that you are not doing anything, are not moving anywhere, are not undertaking anything. Hence, obsessive and negative thoughts and as a result you begin to feel like a failure and a worthless person. If this is already the case, then you need to think about how to believe in yourself and become self-confident.
Comparison
Stop comparing yourself to other people. Yes, you are not perfect, but there are no perfect people, but you are unique. Surely, you sing or dance very well, you have a great sense of humor, or you write poems very well, maybe you have a special imagination or acumen from the school article. Imagine before yourself that person with whom you most often compare yourself. What do you like most about it? What qualities or traits do you like?
First, analyze and try to look at it in a new way, not as an object of envy or comparison, but as a person from whom you can learn a lot and adopt positive habits.
Secondly, did you think that they could also look at you and compare yourself with you, and perhaps for someone you are also an object of admiration?
Value.
Realize your value, start loving and appreciating yourself. Identify and write down all your positive and negative qualities, your skills and abilities. Do not be afraid of negative qualities, everyone has shortcomings, but for many this did not prevent them from truly believing in themselves and gaining confidence. Also think about what you do well, what work you do easily and efficiently, which brings you pleasure. This will reinforce your self-confidence and raise self-esteem.
Criticism.
Never criticize yourself, let alone doubt yourself. On the contrary, you must patiently treat yourself, praise for every small victory, for every achievement. On the criticism of other people learn to respond adequately and do not be offended. Perhaps you really have work to do.
Goals
Set goals and achieve them. Do not limit yourself to setting goals and dreams that you want something. In order for all your dreams and goals to come true, you need to get up and do it, gradually moving from one task to another, in small steps. Otherwise, you will only internally “nibble” yourself for not doing anything, and the list of goals will lie on your table, constantly reminding you of yourself and undermining your sense of confidence.
Failures.
Failures pursue every person’s life, everyone makes mistakes, but it stops someone, but motivates someone well. No need to take failure as a defeat. This is only a small test, having stood that you will become stronger and more successful. Not for nothing, many businessmen say that they had to make many mistakes on their way, there were ups, but there were also falls, defeats and failures. But they coped with failures, and went to another level. Think of it as a game in which you must complete a mission, if it didn’t work, then it’s worth trying until it works out.
Favourite buisness.
Find a favorite thing and do it. It will make you not only happier, but also more confident. In addition, if you do a work in which you truly believe, your life potential, joy, self-confidence, and perhaps your income, will increase markedly.
In any case, the answer to the question "How to believe in yourself?" is in you. Listen to yourself and your internal dialogue, what thoughts you have in your head, what you want to change and what you need in order to believe in yourself and in your own strength.
