When you’re constantly questioning yourself and struggling with self-confidence, it can feel like it’s impossible to move forward in life. You end up becoming crippled by uncertainty and self-doubt, leaving you feeling stagnant and kinda hopeless. While it’s not an easy mindset to snap out of, it’s worth working on because amazing things will happen once you finally realize your own worth.
- Your confidence skyrockets. The first step in discovering your worth is getting your confidence back. You realize how much potential you have, you become aware of your awesome qualities, and you start making positive changes. Best of all, you believe in yourself again and don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.
- You start surrounding yourself with good people. When you rediscover your own value, you only want to be around those who bring out the best in you and value you just as much. Negative people who only bring you down serve no purpose in your life, and you’re way more careful when you select those who surround you.
- You stop feeling the need to impress anyone. You stop needing to impress others by trying to make your life seem better than it is, changing who you are, or by always making them happy. When you love yourself, you’re comfortable being exactly who you are, and not justifying it to anyone else.
- Your goals become a priority. When you don’t feel like yourself, your goals start to suffer as well. Once you break out of your dark period, you rediscover all the things you’ve put on the back burner and make them important again. Focusing on the things that you love will help keep you moving forward, and continue getting stronger.
- You feel comfortable being alone. When you know your own worth, you enjoy your own company. Anyone in your life becomes a bonus instead of a necessity. There’s no such thing as depending on others for your happiness because you’re able to accomplish that on your own.
- You stop making time for crappy guys. The things you would have made excuses for in the past are inexcusable now. You see the guy for who he really was and the lack of value he placed on you, and you realize you deserve so much more than that.
- You begin to attract guys you do deserve. Loving yourself means you will begin to attract the guys who will love you back. Since you’re comfortable on your own and focused on your goals, your time is too important to settle for games and subpar men. Instead of trying to change a guy who treats you like crap, you’re totally cool to be single and wait for a good, deserving one to come along.
- You become more at ease. Everything starts to become more settled for you when you have the confidence to believe in yourself. There’s no more stressing about not being good enough, and having no direction. You’re sure of yourself and the progress you’ve made and are content in the moment and looking toward the future.
- You choose to be healthier. Loving yourself means you start to take better care of your body and mind. Whether you’re eating better, cutting down on alcohol, or meditating, you’re taking steps to keep bettering yourself. At this point, you’ve realized that when you feel great, you want to look great, too.
- You speak up for yourself. Your ideas and dreams become more important, and you’re not afraid to defend them. This definitely doesn’t mean you have to be a bitch, but you can stand confidently on your feet without constantly doubting yourself if others chose to.
