how i’ve gained so much confidence

Let’s start with this…. Confidence is KEY 🔑

Life has become much more complicated, particularly when it comes to self-esteem. In my opinion, the main issue for this is social media. It has rewired the minds of many individuals and is the world's main networking platform. With this being said, we see everything on social media real and fake, but a significant aspect of social media focuses on a person's appearance, which often leads people to become self-conscious or overly fixated on how they look. Don’t get me wrong, there are days where I feel like this as well.

Over the past two years, my self confidence has grown tremendously. Easier being said than done but it’s true what I am about to tell you - Stop worrying about what other people say or most importantly what you think someone could/would say! Yes, it’s human nature to judge others especially when it’s not your style, interest etc. I’ve learned to focus on myself and do what I think is best. This has also taught be to express my emotions more, create boundaries and stand up for myself.

Confidence isn’t about attractiveness either. I personally don’t believe in one beauty standard. Just because the person next to you may not be attracted to your appearance doesn’t mean the person next to them isn’t. Everyone views beauty differently. But when you hold your confidence high it can immediately change not only your perspective but attract so many people and that doesn’t just mean looks wise. They can view you as a strong individual.

Anyways with all that rambling, Confidence can help you grow as person overall. If you are reading this right now, put your phone down and go look at yourself in the mirror NAKED even if it’s only for 2 minutes lol. TRUST ME ❤️‍🔥
