Hold Your Head Up high

Let your inner beauty shine through by upping your game with oozing confidence and sublime self-esteem to show the world your true worth

- Pamela Victor

Happiness comes from within and we all know, once we’re happy, it shows through from our words, our thoughts and our actions. Unfortunately, for many of us our self-esteem and confidence seem to wax and wane much like the waves in the ocean … one minute you’re riding the crest of a wave of good self confidence and happiness; the next minute something might happen and you’re crashing back down into a sea of doubt. For some people it may even feel like they can never get back up again, but rather continually get pounded and start drowning in low self-esteem and poor self-confidence. This cycle all too often can lead to constant anxiety, self-loathing, and unhappiness with life. It’s not a very productive nor enjoyable way to live. So, what can we do to build a healthy level of self esteem and self confidence? First things first, we need to define these terms to ensure we know what we’re missing out on.

WHAT IS CONFIDENCE?

Confidence is a pretty broad term and can be difficult to define as it’s so personal. Most people see confidence as having a belief in one’s self, another person or an idea. When a person is confident, they are showing that they have faith in their talents, abilities and personal strength. Having confidence can have a really positive impact on your day to day life, as well as your ability to achieve the things you want to do. The cool thing about confidence is that there is no official measure of a person’s confidence; if you feel confident then you probably are.
