self-doubt /
-noun
lack of confidence in the reliability of one's own motives, personality, thought, etc
Having doubt in your own personality seems ridiculous, even though almost everyone possesses some form of it. Doubting who you are, and your own personal motives just doesn't sound healthy. But how do you cure self-doubt? I guess there really isn't a cure for something that you will probably always have a form of, but how do you suppress it? Surrounding yourself with people who have a positive impact on you seems like the best answer, but at the end of the day its about your thoughts, and the way you view yourself.
You need to mend yourself, to smile from the inside out, make yourself someone that you would love to be around. You have to enjoy being yourself before you can expect anyone to enjoy being around you.

I love this. I do truly believe that surrounding yourself with the best people is one of the greatest ways to be confident, comfortable and feel happy. Being around positive people and people that treat you right is the greatest way to live life.
ReplyDeleteSelf-doubt can come from those who don't respect you or value you enough, and everyone deserves to view themselves in the best way possible. So I say, be with those who make you laugh, not cry, make you want to be the best you can be, and push you to the limit. No games, no puzzles.
When in doubt, sometimes the only things you can do involve giggles over bellini's on Tuesdays with the girls, play dates at Sungod, and those wicked single cruises.
Remember, just keep swimming.
