"The truth is, I have a bad habit of comparing myself to others. There's always someone with a better smile, nicer clothes, a skinner waist, brighter eyes, and amazing hair. I put myself down all the time. I can never be happy with the way I look at all. I'm self-conscious and that's probably the number one thing I want to change about me."
I'm reading CLEO right now and I really envy those ladies who managed to overcome their flaws and be so confident about how they look. Seriously, how did they do it? Even with those guidelines provided in the magazine, I doubt I can even overcome that barrier.
For me, I admit that almost every single day, I'm having negative thoughts about my body, looks or my dressing. Whenever I see my own reflection, my very first reaction will be "Eew. Why you so fat? Why you look older than you're supposed to be? Why can’t I look like that girl over there? So pretty only luh!" It's like... I totally can't accept my flaws and I’ll always compare myself to others. I'll never be able to strutt out of my house, feeling very confident. Yeah I know, this is really really bad. And this is probably the first thing that I want to change about myself. I need to have that little bit of self-confidence in myself.
But how to attain self-confidence? Can somebody please tell me what to do?
I doubt anyone here will be able to help me with this, since it's an issue with myself. The most important thing now here is actually self-love. I will have to start things off by loving myself first, love everything that was given to me - looks and personality. Everything happens for a reason. It doesn't matter how others look at me, as long as I'm contented with what I am doing.
So yes, a first resolution set for myself for the year of 2012 - "I WANT TO BE MORE CONFIDENT!". Hmmm. Is this counted as a resolution? Anyhow, I don't care! LOL.
An abrupt ending to this post! Byeeeee! :D
