The Best Way to Believe in Yourself.

During the Christmas period, I made a post telling people to spend wise because January around the corner and someone in the comment section said that โ€œat least u have to look good so that yours will not be differentโ€. The comment summarised why we have only a few rich people in the world, and a few people who are themselves, while majority struggle with conformity bias.

If you want to be yourself, consider the following:

1. Trying not to be different, trying not to upset people and trying not to disappoint the expectations of people are recipe for not believing in yourself.

2. Accept your true self, your world view, your personality, and your dreams.

3. So long you are not committing crime nor coming sin, let go of society's expectations, societyโ€™s acceptable, the should be of the society and listen to yourself.

4. Start acting on your dreams and be ready to pay the price because once you do, you will accept yourself a little bit more. Most successful people paid the price of success, but the society only focus on the result rather than the process.

4. People will oppose you; they will force their world view on you but that is okay.

5. Give yourself the chance to go for what you want. You still have that voice telling youโ€™re the thing you want. Listen to it and give yourself a chance for it.

6. Keep going after that which you want even when it gets hard. Feed your soul with it.

7. Once you accept your true dreams and start pursuing them, you will find self-belief.

8. And thatโ€™s how you start to believe in yourself by being you.

10 QUOTES ABOUT MOVING FROM A VICTIM MINDSET TO A SUCCESS MINDSET

1. "Don't let your past dictate who you are, but let it be a part of who you become." - Les Brown

2. "The secret of success is learning how to use pain and pleasure instead of having pain and pleasure use you. If you do that, you're in control of your life." - Robert Sharma

3. "It's not what happens to you, but how you react to it that matters." - Epictetus

4. "When you blame others, you give up your power to change." - Robert Anthony

5. "Victimhood is such a compelling story, but it's not a healing story. It's a story that keeps you stuck." - Geneen Roth

6. "When we are no longer able to change a situation, we are challenged to change ourselves." - Viktor Frankl

7. "Success is not about luck. It's about taking responsibility and making the most of your opportunities." - Tom Bilyeu

8. "Victimhood is an excuse to not try. And if you don't try, you can't win." - Tom Bilyeu

9. "You miss 100% of the shots you don't take." - Wayne Gretzky

10. "Success is not something you pursue. Success is something you attract by the person you become." - Jim Rohn

Bonus #1
"What you focus on grows, what you think about expands, and what you dwell upon determines your destiny." - Robert Sharma

Bonus #2
"The victim mindset or the success mindset are both self-fulfilling prophecies. Change your mindset, and it will change your life." - Natalie Oโ€™Rourke

โœจโœจโœจโœจโœจโœจโœจโœจโœจโœจโœจโœจโœจโœจโœจ

When we face challenges in life, we have 2 choices:

1. Blame someone or the world for whatโ€™s happening to us, instead of taking responsibility for the situation.

2. Or embrace challenges as opportunities to grow and exercise our power of making any situation into a positive one. We are gifted with this power. Itโ€™s always within us. We just need to reach within ourselves and access it.

If we blame others or focus on problems rather than solutions, if we believe that we are not capable of changing anything, it makes us a victim of our circumstances. These traits are the traits of the victim mindset. Once we understand that, we can improve it.

TAKE YOUR LIFE INTO YOUR OWN HANDS.

Next time a challenge comes along, ask yourself: โ€œAm I taking responsivity for my life? How can I stand up for myself? What can I learn? What is the best solution?โ€

2.  Time is a choice. It's a finite resource. And we have the power to choose how we use it.

3.  The most successful people are not the ones who are the busiest. They are the ones who are the most intentional with their time.

4.  When we look at our lives through the lens of how we spend our time, we often discover that we have more time than we think.

6.  The key to feeling less busy is not about doing less. It's about doing the right things.

7.  The more we focus on what we want to do, rather than what we feel we have to do, the more we enjoy our time.

8.  One of the secrets to feeling less busy is to treat ourselves like professional athletes.

We need to prioritize rest and recovery, just as athletes do.

9.  When we treat our leisure time as a valuable and limited resource, we are more likely to use it in ways that bring us joy and fulfillment.

10.  The quality of our time is more important than the quantity of our time.

It's not about how many hours we work or how many tasks we accomplish. It's about how we feel during the time we have.
