Self-Confidence

Self-confidence and self-esteem are all about how your feel about yourself, and your own general feeling of self-worth. Sometimes it helps if you grew up in a household that supported you as a worthy individual. But now you’ll tend to measure your self-esteem based on what other peers think about you.

Often celebrities, movie stars and the media in general can affect how you feel about your appearance or the value of the things you do. Remember that you are unique and there is no one who can do exactly what you can do. Everyone has strengths and weaknesses (including the paid actors and actresses on screen). The key is balance. What that means is that you are more than your looks – all the things that make you the interesting individual, make you who you are.

You can help create balance in your life by getting involved in different activities, groups of people, trying out new things that might just be what you’re looking for as a new strength! Finding things you’re good at help support your self-esteem – as you experience success after success, your confidence will increase.
