FACE IT!

 

Self-doubt is a huge issue faced by people of all ages, especially, teenagers. It is very much a hindrance in our day-to-day activities and affects our overall productivity. So why self-doubt in the first place? 

Self-confidence is a must for any individual trying to get his or her own place in this huge world of competition. When everyone is running forward, you too are tugged in gradually. Whatever you do, the first step is to approach it with the mindset that 'I can do it'. Give it a try. Try a few times and then decide if what you do fits you.

How to get rid of self-doubt?

1. Don't listen to everyone

Listen to what matters. Nobody will be there to support you through your hard times other than your loved ones. The whole world might be against you, but, when you succeed in life, a million hands will applaud for you. Therefore, do not pay heed to 'unwanted talks'. Listen to your inner voice.

2. Do what you love

A majority of people often find themselves in a frustrated position because they end up doing something that is totally against their interests or passions. Love what you do. A lot of advice will flow in on what to do with your life but remember, in the end, it is your life. Not their's. Hence, choose to do what you enjoy. 

3. Be Yourself

Most of us are swayed by celebrities and more commonly by our peers. You are you and only you can be you. Trying to replicate someone else leads to a loss of self-identity. By doing that, an individual loses his or her uniqueness. Everyone is different. If everyone were the same, the world would have not been fun. 

Peer pressure can be dangerous, especially among teenagers. Do not go with the trend. Be different. Just because they do something and you don't does not mean that you are weird. It just makes you stand out.

4. Trust Yourself

No matter what you do, believe in yourself. Your decisions matter more than anyone else.  Do not ever let your mind waver. Think about the results and the accomplishments that come along with your risks. Risks are always present. And to get to a beautiful destination, you have to take the hardest route. 

Try doing the above and see the change! All of us are granted just one life, and enjoy it to the maximum. Live it the way you want. At the end of the day, leave yourself with no regrets.
