For me, one of the hardest challenges I have to face is learning to love myself. I don't know to do it honestly. I try so hard to pump up my self esteem and confidence, but it never really seems to work. Like they are some areas where I'm confident in such as in my acting and writing skills, but when it comes to my looks or other things, I just don't have as much faith in myself. And I always seem to compare myself to other girls. To me, everyone is always prettier/skinnier than me, and it just discourages me so much.
I hate not being happy with the face and body I see in the mirror. I could pick out a million things about myself that I need to fix, and yet on other people it's so much harder for me to pick out things they need to fix. I try my best to get into shape and reach a healthier size, but I still feel like I will always feel like I'm ugly no matter what the scale says I weigh.
Loving myself is something that I want to be able to, but I just honestly don't really know how to do it. I need to learn how to be my own best friend, because I should be best friends with myself. I used to think that if I had a boyfriend that I would feel better about myself, but in reality, I know I wouldn't. I can't depend on what other people feel about me to decide on how I should feel about myself.
So I'm trying to find things to do that will make me feel about my self and slowly build myself up to have confidence or love myself. It's definitely going to be a battle, but I think maybe I will get there, if I try really hard.
What do you think would be good things to do to build up one's confidence ?
Anywho, I hope this blog post finds you all well.
Love,
