Confidence and self-esteem are key to living a happy life. For me, they didn’t come naturally, and like many people, I struggled with self-doubt. I grew up in an environment where all my age mate got their admission in the university in just their first attempt and all my friends let me behind to school I felt so lonely and left out. Because I couldn't make it to the university that first trail I lost my self confidence, I thought I was dull. Each time I see my friends when they return from school I will run hinding But over time, I learned how to grow these qualities. Self confidence and self esteem are two characteristics that can help perform in our lives in a very positive manner. If you are confident, and feel worthy, you are much more inclined to embark on the unknown and to search for the goals in life and find purpose.
In my own life I have witnessed myself just how much confidence and self-esteem can do. In one way or the other, there are usually moments in our lives that we begin to doubt ourselves, most of the time it's could be pressure when we see others people making it in life and we turn ans look at ourselves nothing to show forth you begin to doubt your competency. You would begin to doubt my decisions and always measure up with the others which makes you feel like you are not up to the task.
But something changed as time also change when I was trying to work on the building my self-esteem and acting kindly to myself I saw that the process was changing. I also became more confident in answering some issues that I am facing as well as in making decisions on my own. I had to constantly tell myself that I'm not a failure that there is hope for me if I keep pushing, those words I said to myself were empowering and for the first time in a while I started seizing opportunities and not thinking twice about it.
An example of this was when I decided to give an application for a promotion with my current employer. As a music teacher in my school I used to feel that my course is kind of a minor one so for the past few year I have not really been able to apply for a salary increment ago I would not have read this with confidence and would not have But now I was more confident, I felt that I have a right to purse the goal and I have what it takes do it. Fortunately, I managed to do so, and soon enough, I got a promotion at work.
I can conclude that the lesson which I have received was the lesson about confidence and about how essential it is to be strong and successful in order to find happiness in life. It’s always the process of learning and accepting ourselves and sometimes it can be really tiring but the outcome is beautiful. it is high time that we began trying to develop our level of confidence and the degree of self-esteem and observe positive changes in our lives.
