There is a quote by Eleanor Roosevelt. “No one can make you feel inferior without your consent”. Do you suffer from low self esteem or inferiority complex? I would like to share some self help tips on how you can overcome that and develop your confidence.

A person may have inferiority complex because he or she thinks that there is a need to impress other people, when in actual fact, there isn’t. Sure, you may be afraid to offend someone, like your friends, but is there really a need to please them? Do note that your friends are not your boss or superiors at work (that is a totally different context). If you were to tell me that you are afraid of a superior, that is understandable, but if you were to tell me that you are afraid of other people because you feel that you are inferior to them, then that is the wrong mentality to have. You should be comfortable around your friends. They are after all your friends.

Let me continue with these self help tips. Low self esteem may be linked to what other people say about you. Now what they say may not necessarily be derogatory remarks. In fact, they could be cold hard facts. However, you need to realize that you are worth a lot more than other people’s opinions, or even facts. You are worth whatever value you place on yourself. Learn to develop a healthy esteem and love for yourself. I am sure you have friends and loved ones around you who care for you. If other people care for you, why do you want to hate or look down on yourself?

I am about to wrap up these self help tips. Before I go, I want to leave you with something to think about. In order to become a confident man or woman, it is important that you learn to accept and love yourself. You are human, and you have flaws. However, don’t hate yourself because of these flaws. You have strengths too. Learn to magnify those strengths instead. Furthermore, you could even turn one of your weaknesses into a new strength by improving yourself.

I hope you have learnt something new from these self help tips. Inferiority complex and low self esteem can be overcome. Do remember what I have shared with you today, and may you grow to become a confident man or woman.

While I was waiting for my dance class to start, I watched an instructor patiently coach a couple through what was obviously one of their first lessons. The instructor was having them do a “box step,” which is what it sounds like. A “box” made with your feet. It consists of two parts, a forward half box and a backward half box. Each half box has three steps: a step forward or backward, a step to the side, and a step to close the feet together. The instructor was counting out
