How to improve your confidence in yourself?

Confidence, some people just ooze with confidence, and some people look like they could use some. If you are one of those people who could use some, you have come to the right place. Before I go ahead with the pointers on improving confidence within yourself, let help you understand why you need it in the first place. In one of my blogs, I discuss the power of words. If you wish to be someone who wants to run the world, you need to be confident in yourself. If you want to grow in your life, socially and professionally, you need to have confidence in yourself. But of course, you need to learn there is a fine line between confidence and being a stubborn bull. Being confident does not mean you stop taking suggestions and advice it means having faith in yourself and the work you are doing.  Always remember self-confidence is the key to your super Saiyan mode So, what can you do to improve your self-confidence?  Answer  1) Work on your lifestyle.  One of the common reason...

'Self obsession' vs 'Self love'

If you have ever said the following lines in your life, know that you are arrogant. Let me know in the comments if this sounds familiar " I will do what I want, I do not care about what you think about me" or "I love the way I am, I don't need to change" If these lines sound familiar then you, my friend are self-obsessed, you may think it is self-love or you being cool, but it is not. You are just being an arrogant person, who is self-obsessed and refuses to improve him or herself. 

Now, I know I sound a little harsh in my tone, but I feel it has become very important for people to know the difference between self-obsession and self-love. Changing yourself for the better is not a bad thing. Self-love means to be open to criticism, to be open to improvements, to be open to make yourself a better person than yesterday. It does not mean you brag about your flaws. Let me explain to you with the help of an illustration; let's say you are a bad listener, now a friend of yours comes to you and tells you, that you are a bad listener, and you reply by saying "I love the way I am and that is how God made me", then that means you don't love yourself, you are just obsessed with yourself, so obsessed you are ready to overlook an improvement that could make you a better person. If you keep posting your pics on social media and have posted 10-11 pics of your body in a day and writing "I love myself, I love my body, I am happy in my skin" you are self-obsessed, a person who actually loves his or her body does not constantly post pics for validation or show off, he or she just stays happy and lives his or her own life in content with the way God made him or her, and work on improving themself.  The term self-love has become an easy way out for the lazy.

There is a very thin line between loving yourself and obsessing over yourself, learn the difference. Obsessing over anything is wrong, even over your own self. Loving your self means being in content with yourself without looking for validation on social media, it means to work on yourself when needed, it means to be open to criticism, it means not brag about your flaws, but to accept them and work on them. 

I really hope I have helped you learn the difference. If you know someone who needs to learn the difference, please share it with them, and let me know your thoughts in the comment section below.

Individuality

 Often times relationships ask for a lot of your own time, which is a good thing if you wish to grow together and learn about each other.  Before I start with what I have learned over the past few years by being in a relationship and seeing relationships all around me, I wish to let you know that I strongly believe in sacrifices and a little compromise to make a relationship work. Now, that being said, I also believe 2 people who are in a relationship need to understand that they are there own individuals as well. What do you mean by that? It means to be the same person as you were before getting in a relationship, having the same dreams, still having some 'me' time. As young adults when we land in a relationship we often get too lost in it, we try so hard to be loved and cared for we make our significant others personality and choices our own, which is alright to some extent but too much of it can be harmful to self-growth because if by a stroke of bad luck it does not work o...
