Why you finally have to believe in yourself
Are you plagued by self-doubt, your self-confidence is in the basement and you don't know how to get out of your emotional hole? We'll tell you how you can finally believe in yourself again.
Am I lovable?
Put your advantages in the foreground: Why do you like yourself? Which of your qualities do others like you for? It is important that you do not focus on what you think describes you negatively. You are who you are - a lovable person who has your own personal advantages and character traits. In the same way, every person has their own quirks that you may not always like personally, but that make you particularly lovable and unique to others.
Find and rationalize solutions to your problems
Your self-doubt comes from current situations, such as bad grades at university or school ? Don't worry about it - at least not too much. Think about how you can solve your problems: If you know you can't handle acute pressure, learn in stages. Do you need the pressure to get the pots? Then lock yourself in your room two weeks before the exam and study. There is a right method for everyone, but there is no one, only, right solution. Rationalize your problems: Are they the kind that will resolve themselves in the long run or the kind that you should seriously consider seeking professional help? You don't have to go through your dilemma alone. Whether friends, parents, grandparents or a community - confide in others who can understand you.
Finish what you have started and structure yourself
It often helps to finish things: This way you can see your successes clearly. You form a thought - for example: I will pass the exam. Then think about it: What do I need to master this endeavor? Create enough time, space and leeway, learn in a structured and targeted manner according to a fixed, individually created period of time, exchange ideas with fellow learners and you will see - sometimes all you need is a good dose of grit and you can do it. Lo and behold: When you have passed your exam in front of you at the end, you realize: it was worth it.
Discover your strengths - and use them
You're not good at math, but you love languages ? Or is it exactly the other way around? No matter how, there will always be one and the other. Recognize your strengths and develop them - others will certainly be happy to be able to turn to you. In contrast, you can enlist the help of others - this way you make social contacts, discover your strengths and, in the best case, even find fun in developing these into tangible skills. Maybe something that you can imagine for your future career? Believe in yourself and your strengths!
Learn from your mistakes
Failures are not a drama. On the contrary: How are you supposed to learn from mistakes you never make? List all your failures in a table (for example, chronologically) and draw a conclusion from each one.
- How could this happen?
- How can you avoid this mistake in the future?
- Where exactly did you fail?
- Could you have avoided the mistake?
- If yes how?
Write down the answers carefully next to your questions and work through them one after the other - you will see that a weight will be lifted off your heart!
