You matter. You are worthy. You are your own kind of awesome. You deserve to be treated with love and respect every second of every day. You are important. Your existence is a unique experience that you have the opportunity to explore. You are beautiful or handsome or whatever word makes you feel amazing. You deserve a second, third, and fourth chance. You deserve a first chance. You are entitled to your own opinion, and should not be ostracized for it. You have people in your life who care about you, even if they don’t always show it. You have qualities that make you smart and intelligent, no matter the level of education you have received. You are rich even if you do not have a cent to your name, because you can give people your two cents.
Your words are just as important as your actions. Your heart is filled with love, and love can bring you happiness you never knew existed. You are just beginning your journey, despite the fact it might feel like the end. You are strong no matter how tall, fit, heavy, skinny, or lanky you are perceived by others to be. You are powerful because you have a voice. You are worth being listened to. You are worth being heard and understood. You should feel safe to express yourself.
You can never give up on what you care about, because what you care about is important. You have every right to be human and treated as such. You are able to learn from every experience positive or negative. You never stop learning. You have something to contribute to this world. You deserve a life filled with enrichment and fulfillment.
These words are meant to inspire reflection. How do these statements make you feel? Are you confident in the statements above? Everyone struggles with insecurities from time to time, and I think it is critical to keep that in mind. No one has positive body image every moment of every day. No one has an endless supply of confidence. Life throws things our way and sometimes these things catch us off guard. We may not feel prepared to deal with the situations presented to us. That is perfectly okay. IT IS OKAY NOT TO FEEL OK!
The problem arises when we dwell on our perceived shortcomings. It can lead to a warped sense of self. That is why the statements up above matter. If you read each of them and can connect with just one of them, it can turn your outlook around. It can foster a healthy body image and sense of self-worth. The more peace you have with yourself no matter how others react to you the more confident you will become.
There is nothing easy about projecting confidence whether or not it is genuine. These statements are intended to give you a boost of genuine truths that you can hold onto and reflect upon.
