Why self belief is so important ❤️

Well hello to you my reader chums!

With the society we live in, it's almost deemed as a bad thing to love yourself even though all we're ever taught is to be kind to one another. The being kind mantra to everybody else is such a norm so why do we stop with ourselves? You are the main part of your existence. Your thoughts, flaws, and best qualities are what make you special so why shouldn't you take a stance of not only loving who you are but believing in yourself. You need to be the love of your own life and no1 fan.

Each and every one of us has goals and dreams we'd like to conquer in our lifetime. Whether it's your 5-year career plan or simply to be more of an outgoing, confident person, we all strive towards something.

These goals and ambitions all begin with self-belief. If you don't have the faith in yourself that you will do well in a job interview or any other step to lead you to that goal, it'll be even more difficult to reach. You can do whatever you set your mind to. The world is full of possibilities, opportunities, and any route you want to take. Just like that famous saying 'when one door shuts, another one opens.' In life, you'll constantly have obstacles/criticism, but it's about picking yourself up from these situations, moving on, and learning from that experience.

Self-belief is important for three main reasons:

1) You're important - Caring for loved ones around you is everyone's main priority, but you and your goals are just as important. It's okay to be selfish every once in a while to care and work on yourself, striving towards any of your ambitions. You need to be your own hype girl, focus on being the best version of yourself, and have the belief that you can do it - it'll make you realise how important you are.

2) You need to grow - Life is about growth. Through every stage of it whether by month or year, we're a different person from what we were previously. This can be through confidence, knowledge, love, and more. The possibilities with your growth are endless. Growth is incredibly important for your self-development, and when you look back you'll realise how much you have changed over time - hopefully, for the better.

3) To learn from your mistakes - When you fail a test or get knocked down by your boss, it's only you and your self-belief that will bring you back up. This perseverance and drive will make you into a more confident, ambitious person. We're all human and everybody makes mistakes in each aspect of life so take these times as a learning curve. When things go wrong, you need to focus on how to pick yourself back up, rather than dwelling on the negatives. Having a positive mindset and the focus that things will get better will help you overcome any obstacle.
