5 Ways To Raise Your Confidence

In This Article:

It is getting to that part of the semester where everyone is stressed and honestly, you probably feel like you're dying. However, do not let that end of semester feel get you down on yourself. Here are 5 ways to keep your confidence high during this stressful time.

1. Have a Routine.

Having a routine has personally helped me so much. Getting up for the day around the same time helps get your body ready for the day.

2. Workout

While many people HATE going to the gym, it does help. The first few times you may feel self-conscious next to the body builders, but you soon realize everyone started somewhere.

3. Sleep

Not an over amount of sleep, but make sure you're getting a good amount to keep your body functioning correctly.

4. Get Organized

Anyone is going to feel overly stressed and self-conscious when it comes to his or her living area. If your room is a mess, your life and self feel that way too.

5. Think Positively

Recognizing when you're being super negative and purposely replacing those with positive things. If you have one negative thought, think 2 positive tthoughts.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
