Do you ever feel the eyes all around you staring at that piece of clothing you liked in the morning but now you feel like it was too bold and aren't confident in? This is a lack of self confidence. By google's definition, Self Confidence is a feeling of trust in one's abilities, qualities, and judgement. I read this website that has 7 blogs on self worth: pickthebrain.com/blog/the-7-best-blogs-on-self-worth/. These blogs made me really understand what self confidence is and gets me thinking about how to write this blog. I have a real issue with that feeling of eyes on me 24/7. I try and calm this feeling of doubt by complimenting myself (or I try my best to). Somedays are better than others. The steps I follow in calming myself down when I’m anxious is from this website: www.innerengineering.com. This website allows me to just be in my center of mind and not be so “shaky” meaning anxious. It also helps me overcome my terrors of being stared at. Self confidence isn’t just about buying the hip new clothes everyone else has, it's about having our own personality (style), and listening to your own kind of music. Personally I am not a huge rap fan, but I know most of my generation listens to music with profound lyrics and loud beats booming in their ears. But I listen to country music and folk etc. I am very hesitant when someone asks me to pick the next song. Standing up in front of a crowd or your classmates is really hard for most people.Just like me, when I think people judge me for picking a country song, I lack self confidence so I can't give my full potential to my class mates or my teachers. Sometimes I think I'm getting better at my confidence but then somebody says something at me or to me and then I'm back to where I started. If you ever feel like you aren't good enough or your body isn't how you like it? Just think, most people… no, everyone around you is feeling the same way and you are never alone. Self confidence only happens when you accept yourself for who you are. It is also something that can be worked on, you can improve yourself but not if you are constantly worrying about what people think of you. Crack open your shell, and spread your stylist wings and soar over the people who may say the wrong thing. If you see a kid you may not know really struggling, help them get their wings because you have your strong wings to lift them up.

I really like the topic! It's super relatable - especially the reference to picking out clothes and never actually wearing them. Thanks for the reassurance, as well as the confidence booster!

i myself find this very touching because i had no self confidence and i was always being stared at because i was the one trying to get everyone like me by trying to act like everyone but didn't work so one night i searched up things to make u more confident and the most popular was to be yourself i tried that the next day and it work i wasn't being stared at and was meeting new people

I really relate to this blog and what you're saying, I remember once I wore knee high bright blue socks to school and I thought they looked awesome. But then when I got to school everyone was staring and I felt horrible. I wish I had this blog back then and I that I told myself that I didn't have to feel that way. Your blog has good structure and I like the title.

Totally agree with this, our generation is just doing whatever the trend is and very few people are doing what they want to do

I really relate to this post and think we all need to step outside our comfort zone and be the person we want to be.

Self confidence is something that so many of us struggle with I know I do. this blog really connected and related with me because we all face this in our day to day lives but instead of letting it overcome us we should embrace it and embrace the fact that we all are different and have our own flaws but that is ok because it makes us who we are and it makes us each unique

One of the best things I've heard someone say is "my life is mine." Listen to all the country music your heart desires & wear those hip pieces of clothing you love.
