It is best to make a child realize how special and how worthy he is. After all, he would eventually replace us. Imagine if you have created a child who knows nothing about handling his sense of self. If you would expose a child in an environment that would elicit in him concepts of low self worth then it would be likely that he would live in a state of unhappiness and discontentment. A Philosophy to Increase Your Self Confidence Everyone takes pride with all the things that we posses. May it be the achievements that we had, or the present living that we were able to produce, each one of us has become an achiever on our own. Many of us may have denied this truth though. But you see, it is obvious- everybody is capable of doing anything only if we give our hearts into it and we set our minds in doing it. More Advises on How to Gain Self Confidence To understand others, we need to have a full understanding of ourselves first. However, human beings are too complex to be understood which place us in an endless circle of understanding and of attempts to understand. It is critical for us to discern our selves not only because this will lead us to better perception for other people but also because it is the foundation on which we can lay our self confidence on. 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. Many factors are contributors to our personal understanding of confidence. One determining factor is how well we expect ourselves and the circumstances of our lives should be. For sure, you have done a lot of good things in your past that you might consider bargaining on so that you might start building your confidence and self esteem level. You only have to be conscious of your self and take advantage of all the facilities that were given to you. That way, you will have a heightened self appreciation and the capacity to increase your physical presence. Remember when you were struggling to finish your work satisfactorily when someone said you would never make it to promotion? Remember when you set out to run a mile and people scrutinized you for having such goal? Remember all those times. They all rooted from pessimistic commentaries that were of no use but to destroy the positive spirit in you that says " you can".
