Confidence is Being Yourself

Many times throughout your life, it will feel as though your insecurities are seeping through much more than anything else in your life. It will be hard, and you will struggle against yourself on occasion, but who doesn’t? There are people out there who exude confidence like nobody’s business, but don’t you think that even they also suffer from their own insecurities? Their own flaws and weaknesses? Because they definitely do.

Nobody is perfect, but sometimes the confidence that you see in others is merely a mask to hide their own imperfections and flaws that they think they can’t show to people. The thing is, we’re all flawed! Our insecurities will sometimes speak louder than we will, but only if we let them. You need to let go of the things that you think are “wrong” with you and learn to embrace yourself for who you are, as you are.

It can be hard to stay confident when it feels like you're showing off all of your flaws and weaknesses, but confidence is silent. It’s when you’re simply yourself, unapologetically, that you find true confidence in who you are. Saying weird shit, acting like the strange human being that you are, and laughing at yourself when others laugh at you—that is all confidence at its finest! Someone out there could be watching you and admiring you because you simply choose to be yourself, flaws and all.

True confidence comes from being yourself and accepting yourself as you are, even with all of your problems and flaws. When you can live your life without worrying about what other people think of you or how they might perceive you, then you have achieved true confidence. You might still feel insecure at times, and that’s okay! We all do! You just need to learn to push those thoughts aside and embrace yourself as you are.

Confidence is something that you are born with. You had it as a child; you said the darndest things and acted strangely without a care in the world. Later in life, people start to look at you funny for doing the exact same things. I say, why stop? Continue saying weird stuff! Keep acting weird! Who’s going to stop you? The only person standing in your way of confidence is you! Don’t let other people stop you from merely being you.

Let Go of the Past and Embrace Change

Leave the past in the past! You won’t progress in life if you’re dragging old habits around with you. If you keep trying the same thing over and over again, and you’re not getting the results that you want, maybe it’s time to try something new. T hink of it like diet and exercise. Some diets won't work for you, just like some exercises work better for other people than they will for you. It’s all about figuring out what works, rather than doing the same old thing and becoming disappointed every time you don’t get results. In order to move forward in your life, you need to learn to embrace change. Sometimes, you can get so caught up in sticking with the things that you know, that you wind up afraid of venturing out of your comfort zone. It’s easy to stay with what’s familiar, but you have to learn to let go of familiarity and let yourself embrace the new and the unknown. You need to allow yourself to be open to new ideas and new ways of thinking. You're stuck where you are righ...

Don't Allow Your Fears To Control Your Life

Everyone has something that they are afraid of—you, me, everyone! It’s not shameful to have these fears, but you shouldn’t allow them to take precedent over your life. Things only have power over you because you give them that power. If your fears are starting to hold you back from living the life that you want, then you need to rethink how you view those fears and learn to break past them in order to move on. Your limitations are only limitations because you allow them to be. You are capable of so much more than you give yourself credit for, so don’t allow yourself to be brought down by your fears just because you’re worried that you won’t be able to overcome them. You can do anything that you put your mind to, and if that involves overcoming your fears, then you will be able to do just that! When you choose to avoid your fears and not face them, you open yourself up to even more fear, as well as limitations on your abilities. Facing your fears allows you to break free of the restrict...
