  • Be with you !

    Have you been in a situation where you wish to do something or pursue something but everyone around you don’t agree or support you even your closest people like your friends or family?

    Well I guess all of us have experienced this, while at this minute taking stand for your own self, doing what feels right to you seems or others around you make you feel that its wrong. It is in that moment you need to be with you.
    I believe as long its not doing any harm to others and you know in your core its right please please go ahead, the chances are you will be right and the chances are that you will be wrong too but what matters is you are responsible for what you did, not other people’s opinion not something external. You take that stand and own it. Whatever the result is going to be, smile and Be with you !

    No More Self Doubts !

    As I start this journey of blog writing, I realize that one of the most significant obstacles I’ve faced is self-doubt. That nagging voice in my head that constantly questioned my abilities, my worth, and my decisions.

    If you’re reading this, chances are you’ve experienced self-doubt at some point in your life. It’s a universal human emotion that hence applicable to all the human species out there.

    In this blog, I’ll share my personal struggles with self-doubt, the strategies that have helped me overcome it, and some practical tips to help you do the same.

    Recognizing the Patterns of Self-Doubt

    For me, self-doubt often was:

    • Negative self-talk: “I’m not good enough,” “I’ll never succeed,” or “I’m a failure.”
    • Fear of failure: “What if I try and fail?” or “What if I’m not good enough?”
    • Comparison to others: “They’re more successful than me,” or “They’re more talented than me.”

    These patterns of self-doubt held me back from pursuing my passions, taking risks, and believing in myself.

    Strategies for Overcoming Self-Doubt

    So, how did I overcome self-doubt? Here are some strategies that worked for me:

    1. Self-awareness: Recognizing when self-doubt crept in and acknowledging its presence.
    2. Positive self-talk: Replacing negative self-talk with positive affirmations, such as “I am capable,” “I am worthy,” or “I can do this.”
    3. Reframing failure: Viewing failure as an opportunity for growth, learning, and improvement.
    4. Focusing on strengths: Emphasizing my strengths and accomplishments, rather than dwelling on weaknesses.
    5. Seeking support: Surrounding myself with positive, supportive people who encouraged and believed in me.
    6. Mindfulness and self-care: Practicing mindfulness, meditation, and self-care to reduce stress and increase self-awareness.

    Practical Tips for Overcoming Self-Doubt

    Here are some practical tips to help you overcome self-doubt:

    1. Keep a journal: Write down your thoughts, feelings, and experiences to identify patterns of self-doubt, I think this also referred as dumping your thoughts just put it out on that paper.
    2. Practice positive affirmations: Repeat positive affirmations daily.
    3. Celebrate small wins: Acknowledge and celebrate your achievements, no matter how small they may seem.
    4. Seek feedback from trusted sources: Ask people you trust for constructive feedback to help you grow and improve.
    5. Take calculated risks: Step out of your comfort zone and take calculated risks to build confidence and self-belief.

    Overcoming self-doubt is a journey, not a destination. It takes time, effort, and patience.

    Remember, you are not alone in your struggles with self-doubt. We all face it at some point in our lives. But with the right strategies, support, and mindset, you can overcome self-doubt and unlock your full potential.

    So, take a deep breath, be kind to yourself, and remember that you are capable, worthy, and deserving of achieving your dreams.
