Learn to be self-confident. It appears that many of us seem to be unsatisfied with ourselves for the deeds of our own doing or some features of our own character. Because we are not self-confident.

In the professional field, psychologists refer to this as low self-esteem. Do you ever ask yourself why I don’t value yourself more?

It appears that how other people see us has a lot to do with self-esteem. We seem to base our self-esteem on the way others perceive us and their opinions of us.

This becomes very typical of children. Little children are not capable of analyzing their activity and their confidence depends on an adult’s estimation of how they behave.

Besides during all our lives, we always compare the image of our ideal ego with our real ego.

And if our real I is too far from the ideal our self-esteem suffers from it. But in most cases, there are no reasons for that, as our ideal image may be too perfect and unreal.

Many people with low self-esteem do not look for success in their activities. This makes them more likely to act, just trying to escape from their failures.

And even when they attain positive results, they attribute their small victories to external factors (the task was too easy; it was just luck). Be self-confident more.

So, then the feeling of discontent within themselves grows dramatically. It can be a vicious cycle they cannot achieve success for they are dissatisfied with themselves.

Because they have never managed to succeed, they become more dissatisfied with themselves.

We should remember that every success starts with your self-confidence, with the belief that you will achieve what you intend to do. To improve your self-confidence I’ll share an efficient exercise with you.

You are expected to make a list of positive features of your character (not less than forty). I know that it is not that easy. But you are not limited in time and you may write when you wish to.

Once the list is completed, you are to enrich it with new strong points of your nature every day.

Soon, you will see that such a person as described in the list surely deserves respect and you will like him/her.
