What I can do

 

Do I have faith in my own abilities?

Self-esteem means the feeling of abilities. We are confident when we believe in ourselves when we are internally oriented so that we have a sense of confidence in our own abilities, qualities and judgment. Self-confidence gives us the courage to confront with the challenges of life.

 

Real confidence is not built on the basis of what we do, but on the basis of confidence in our internal capabilities that we can do anything we want. It is based on a trust in yourself and on the results that we will or we will not achieve. Confident people undertake the challenge, despite the potential possibility to experience rejection or defeat. They see failures and defeats as an opportunity for learning. Confident people make friends more easily, are happier in love, achieve the goals set and enjoy life more.

 

Self-esteem and self-confidence are different concepts, that can not really be compared or confused. However, they are linked: if an individual has good self-esteem, self-confidence is rarely a problem. Vice versa is not true. Strong self-esteem does not give you more self-respect. If we feel that we are capable of this or that, does not mean that we are satisfied with ourselves. External outputs can never be the sole basis for a sense of self-worth. Each of us is capable of something that at the beginning does not seem anything special to you, but it would mean really a lot to someone else. Even when we are adults that do not mean that we can not start something new and test our abilities.

 

It is important to believe in ourselves what we can do. If you have any doubt at your success, you simply say I can!

  • Do you always avoid speaking in front of others? I think I can overcome stage fright.

  • Would you like to try some new sports and you think you have missed the chance when you were younger? I can learn snowboarding.

  • Always put others in the first place? I think I can stop being a victim.

  • Have you always wanted to visit a foreign country and talk with the locals in their own language? I can learn a foreign language.

  • Tired of always preparing the same dishes and do not want to try something new, because you are afraid that it will not work? I think I can prepare a tasty dish.

  • Got to renovate the apartment? I can manage to repaint the apartment by myself.
