Confidence in Yourself

At one point of our lives or another we all have been through times when we feel like we just don’t cut it any more, times when we feel like we are worthless, times when we feel like we have just lost the spark…..in short we lose our confidence. I like to call this state, mental and physical inertia.

But what is this inertia really. If you have been through this, you notice that you no longer have interest in what you used to like before, you feel edgy been alone and prefer the company of others, you become unusually timid…in this case of timidity it is do with things that you would readily do in the past.

Sound familiar? You are not alone. All of us at one point or another in our lives have been through confidence crisis. The most important thing we should know about this is that the more you do nothing about it the more you sink into your lack of confidence and harder it becomes to get out of it.   

Reasons why we most lack in confidence

The reasons why we most lack in confidence are usually so simple and so within our grasp that you would easily kick yourself knowing what potential you have that you are throwing away needlessly. This is not to say however that it is all that easy to emerge from a confidence slump. As an individual you have to learn to stand up and face your fears head on because the more you cower the more the fear gets deep rooted in you. Among the main reasons why we lack in confidence is

Lack of Self Love

Come on people, it is not at all selfish to love yourself, and the most important part, for who you are. This is where it all begins. It is near impossible to have confidence in that which you have no love for. Lack of self love only breeds contempt for oneself.

The Wrong Company.

Ever been in a situation where, you want to do something, you know you can do it, but someone, usually one of your friends tell you, “….come on men, this here is impossible, and you of all people….”and so on. See, people subconsciously see the bad about something before they even see the good, very few people want to see you do exemplary well hence they put psychological barriers  time and time again attacking your personality. End result absolute lack of confidence.
