Things that Matter If You are to Develop Self Confidence Man seems to have found many excuses that eventually help him develop insecurities. The sad truth though is that self confidence is often hard to be achieved and whenever it passes us by, we try to suppress it. We treat ourselves severely while giving regards for other people. These people tend to have unrealistically high self confidence which lead to uncontrollable impulses. Thus, their sense of self becomes exaggerates that at times, they are being blinded by the realities that they truly have no sense of self worth at all. The problem now comes with identifying the real people who endure low self confidence, not those who have no self confidence. Unless you start revamping your self confidence, you will have to agonize endlessly with the very thing you are fearful of- low self confidence. Our self confidence is the accumulation of all our reactions to the experiences that life brought us, the manner by which we were guided by the older people in our environment and how we and the society view us. Everyone is properly equipped with all the facilities that one can develop from, with a few exemptions of course. Each child has an innate capacity to succeed, only adults should be able to trigger his development. Childhood is the most ideal juncture from which we may build the foundations of self confidence. Say, if you have this vivid memory of having been able to achieve something or you once had "cheerleaders" who pushed you to achieving greater things, you can surely use them to manipulate your emotions. If not, then remember the moments when you really felt happy about yourself. Controlling the reins of your moods and emotions can contribute to your over all confidence. Life is a gratifying privilege and we can make everything we want from it. We have to start early in building our foundations so that we wont have to loose precious moments that shall never pass by us again. A moment that's gone is gone forever but your light won't even lose its value long after you have gone.
