I too feel insecure at times, and it's hard to have the highest level of confidence. Especially in a world that is so competitive, and so difficult to catch up/keep up with everyone else - it's easy to feel behind. At least, that's my perspective on things. <br><br>You definitely have to keep your confidence up, and believe in yourself. It's good to have high expectations for yourself, but we also have to acknowledge that we ARE human. Sometimes, it's enough to have tried our hardest. Things don't always work out the way we wish, right? But that shouldn't deter us. Optimism is important, especially in times of difficulty.<br><br>"I know that I am stronger than I think I am, I just have to recognize my own strength" you said, and I think that's exactly what you need to do and ARE capable of! <br><br>Hope you are bale to get over this bump in the road. :) To be honest, I struggle with a lot of similar things….but I just don't write this on my blog.

“I know that I am stronger than I think I am, I just have to recognize my own strength” you said, and I think that's exactly what you need to do and ARE capable of!

Hope you are bale to get over this bump in the road. :)

You are very brave to put all this out there and I admire you for it. I am definitely a similar type of person that does a lot for others, but doesn't let others do a lot for me. Just know that as you said, its a process, and when you need reminding, it always helps to write a little bit and see where it takes you. <br><br>Good for you for getting this out there. The bad days tend to go away as soon as you acknowledge that you're there. Hug! You are very brave to put all this out there and I admire you for it.
