Self doubt is part of our process, though it's the opposite of confidence. There are certain times we doubt our ability at one point the other.
Self doubt holds so much power over us because we believe it to be true. The very first step in overcoming self doubt is understanding that it is normal. And by this I don’t just mean telling ourselves it’s normal but moving on to the next step. I mean truly, believing that every single person faces self doubt whenever they push themselves to evolve, and It’s not just you. Whenever you decide to level up in your life, you will run headfirst into self doubt. But there is a way out, because we all overcome it.
Self-doubt is a pattern of thoughts that questions not only our current abilities, but our capacity for developing new abilities. Most times we created evidence to support this belief, and continue to create this evidence with every opportunity. Then, when we feel challenged or pushed outside of our comfort zones, we hold up this evidence to reinforce the self doubt and point out all the reasons why new idea is not going to work.
When we notice successful people rocking it in their goals, we assume they do not question their ability to succeed, rather we think that when someone reaches a certain level of success, they are all done with insecurity, but we failed to understand that they fought self-doubt and overcome that is why they succeed
When we normalize self doubt, we are able to view our emotional reaction as part of a larger process, instead of assuming we’re making a mistake.
Self-doubt could hold us back from opportunities, bringing undermine confidence which tends to create anxiety and stress, it can also affect relationships,so we ought to break out.
Although self-doubt comes as a result of negative thoughts, fear of uncertainty or even comparison, so we can overcome it when we identify the causes and decide to work towards overcoming it. And that could be done by recognizing and challenging the negative thoughts, also
practicing self-compassion and self care, focusing on our strengths rather than dwelling in self-pity, setting realistic goals, and working towards achieving those goals and also seeking supportive relationships. That is the possible way out.
We ought to also help ourselves by being positive in our thoughts, declaration of
positive affirmations, practicing gratitude, also reframing from every negative thought, I believe that would also help us overcome self-doubt.
Self-doubt is normal, but we should always be conscious that we are capable, and we cannot stay in our comfort zone for growth to happen, growth happens outside our comfort zones, we should also understand that every mistake is an opportunity for us to grow.
We are enough!
