1
Identify your talents. Everyone is good at something, so discover the things at which you excel, and then focus on your
talents. Give yourself permission to take
pride in them. Inferiority is a state of mind
in which you've declared yourself a victim.
Do not allow yourself to be victimized.Express yourself, whether it's through art,
music, writing, or dance. Find something you enjoy. Everyone is born with talents
and strengths. You can develop and excel
in yours.Plus, adding a variety of interests to your life will not only make you more
confident, but it will increase your chances
of meeting compatible friends.
If it's difficult to name two or three
things you have some ability in or just
plain love to do, think about things
others do that you would like to do too
and take some lessons or join an
enthusiasts club.
When you're following your passion,
not only will it have a therapeutic
effect, but you'll feel unique and
accomplished, all of which can help
build your self confidence.
2
take pride in good qualities Not only should you feel proud of your talents
or your skills, but you should also think about the things that make your personality great. It can be your sense of
humor, your sense of compassion, your listening skills, or your ability to cope under stress. You may not think that there's anything about your personality worth admiring, but if you dig deep, you'll
realize that you have plenty of admirable qualities. Revel in them and write them down. You'll be on your way to buildingyour self-confidence.
Whenever you feel bad about one of your weaknesses, comfort yourself by thinking about all of the positive qualities about yourself. You'll see that they far outweigh the things you are
insecure about.
3
Recognize your insecurities What does that voice in the back of your mind say?
What makes you uncomfortable or ashamed of yourself? This could be anything from acne, to regrets, friends at school or a past traumatic or negative
experience. Whatever is making you feel unworthy, ashamed, or inferior, identify it, give it a name, and write it down. You can
also tear these written pieces to start feeling positive on those points. This exercise isn't meant to bring you down or to make you realize that there was even more wrong with you than
you thought. It's meant to make you aware of the problems you're dealing with, and will put you on the path tosolving them.
4
Talk about it with friends and loved ones .
Wear it on your sleeve. Each day you should chip away at it; wear it down.
There's no quick fix. Get to the root of the problem; focus on it and understand that you need to resolve each issue before you
can move on. Check if it's an old past emotion and if it is really still relevant or applicable in your life today. Just havingsomeone to talk to about your problemscan make you feel more confident, even if
that person can't help you find a solution.
This doesn't mean you have to get rid of whatever makes you feel bad (many times, you simply can't). You need to learn to accept yourself, your past, your
circumstances as they are, without
necessarily thinking of them as "bad".
Just having a friend offer you
encouragement can help you feel
capable of tackling your insecurities. It'll be much harder to build up your self-confidence if you have to be your
own cheerleader all the time.
5
Bounce back from your mistakes.
Remember that no one is perfect. Even the most confident people have insecurities. At some point in any of our lives, we may feel we lack something. That is reality. Learn that life is full of bumps down the road.And that often these insecure feelings come and go, depending on where we are, who we are with,the mood we're in, or how we are feeling.In other words, they are not constant. If you've made a mistake, the best thing you
can do is to recognize it, apologize, and make a game plan for avoiding it in the future.Don't let one wrong turn make you think you don't have what it takes to achieve your dreams.Maybe you weren't a great boyfriend and your last relationship ended in failure. This
doesn't mean you're not capable of turning your act around and finding love in the future.
6
Adopt a more positive mindset. Avoid self-pity,or the pity and sympathy of
others.Never allow others to make you feel inferior _ they can only do so if you let them. If you continue to loathe and
belittle yourself.
Don't give anyone the gratification to make you feel inferior!

It's rather unfortunate that you lack a sense of humour and gracious calm spirit.

I don't know what she wants from me.
