How can I improve my internal confidence?

[Greenalways]

I'm not going to go into too much detail but I'm insecure about my personality. It's been like this for a while. I feel weird for being "perceived" as mature. Reading and so goal driven. I have some friends and they're good friends but I still don't feel like I'm enough. I don't like opening up too much or showing a lot of my real character because I'll know I'll be judged. This is hurting myself and I just want to get over it. 😅

As long as you aren’t hurting or endangering yourself or the people around you, it’s good to embrace who you authentically are.


What’s most important about building confidence is to not focus so much on what others think of you, but instead, focus on how you think of yourself.


When you are by yourself and have nobody to judge you but yourself, you can ask yourself, what would make YOU proud of yourself?


Make decisions that make you feel proud of yourself and do things that raise your own respect for yourself.


Bit by bit, you’ll find that your confidence in yourself and self-respect for yourself will grow, and that’s something nobody can take away from you.


You’ll eventually develop a rock-solid inner confidence that is immune from the judgement of others, because you know yourself.


You’ll see yourself for who you truly are, and you’ll know that you have nothing to be ashamed of.

Thanks this is helpful advice. I'd also like to say thanks for helping me on my post from yesterday about the older guy. It got deleted.

I ended things between me and that old guy.

You’re welcome. 🙂

That’s good. I’m glad you’re looking after yourself.
