Re: Self Confidence

@BlueBay I started being more kind to myself when I realised that my emotions about things in life were legitimate and healthy. Then I could choose to act on them or not, and could process them/acknowledge them and see when my boundaries had been crossed through recognising them.

 

And that failure is hard, and really really shit but it also means I'll have the ability to grow and learn (because failure is in the human condition and something we all share.)

 

I still struggle with confidence sometimes but these things have helped me interpersonally especially.
