How important is self-belief in life? |
As long as you have
self-belief, you continue to learn from your challenges thinking of them as learning
lessons which teach you something right about a situation and then you keep
taking steps ahead towards achieving success. Then no matter what kind of
challenges come your way, with self-belief you have the endurance to face them
and also overcome them.
Self-belief makes us
realize and become aware of what are our qualities and strengths. It is exactly the
faith we have in our abilities. It helps to make a huge hurdle look like a
small ant and makes us feel confident that we can simply cross that extremely
difficult path of an obstacle to reach our desired goal which was looking
impossible to do before.
For example, a painter beginning his career having little painting skills can
become a world-renowned painter if he has the belief of becoming one as with
self-belief the painter keeps on practicing to improve his skills and gain
experience.
By having self-belief he will put efforts and willingly learn new things related to his art. He will develop his own new style of painting and expressing his thoughts and imaginations through his paintings, may it be about nature or human emotions or anything he wants to share with the world by creating meaningful paintings.
When people will connect with his paintings, they will relate to
the emotions shared in those paintings then he will get more followers,
recognition and success. So it all will start with a thought and his “self-belief”.
Well self-belief is a key which
can be applied to doing anything in life you desire to do and want to succeed
in. First believe in yourself.
Similarly,
a patient on the path of meeting death soon with self-belief decides to give a
chance to life and continues to fight against the adversities of his or her
injury or disease can increase is his/her lifespan and even can beat the health
condition to become a healthy person again and also can inspire and help
others fighting such condition understanding their pain and thoughts also by
teaching the value of self-belief and importance of keeping strong will power
as well.
When we believe in
ourselves, we believe in the highest power and in his creation as God created
all of us.
So
we must always believe in God's creation and think about every situation
positively. If we are doubtful about ourselves, it means we are doubtful about
the Creator's creation…Is that right to do?
“I AM SUCCESSFUL AND
BLESSED,” is a stronger sentence (or I may say self-affirmation) than “I CAN
BECOME SUCCESSFUL AND BLESSED.”
Declare right now that you
believe that you are successful and worthy right now, don't even wait for the
next second to do so saying you can become.
We
can master our skills, learn a desired educational or technical skill or any
skill, develop healthy habits, and change our lifestyle and even financial
condition by starting believing in ourselves, that's how we can improve
ourselves and our lives and even other people's lives too.
It
is the power and the way of making yourself know who you are better. It makes
you see beyond the fear you are holding and negativity in your mind about
upcoming challenges. It makes you aware of your self-worth.
It
will also make you aware of your weaknesses so that you can work towards
improving yourself and also reduce your weakness by rectifying your mistakes,
not repeating them in present or future and excelling your assets.
In addition to the above, self-belief
can also help you to:
Develop strong relationships.
When you believe in yourself, you are more confident and assertive in your
interactions with others. This can help you to build strong relationships with
colleagues, friends, and family members.
Achieve your full potential. When
you believe in yourself, you are more likely to reach your full potential. You
are not afraid to take on new challenges or to step outside of your comfort
zone. This can lead to greater personal and professional growth.

How can you develop self-belief? |
Set realistic goals.
When you set goals that are too difficult to achieve, you are setting yourself
up for failure. This can damage your self-confidence. Instead, set realistic
goals that you know you can achieve with hard work and dedication.
Celebrate your successes.
It is important to celebrate your successes, no matter how small they may seem.
This will help to boost your self-confidence and motivate you to keep working
towards your goals.
Surround yourself with positive
people. The people you spend time with have a big
impact on your self-belief. Surround yourself with positive people who believe
in you and your abilities.
Developing self-belief takes time and effort, but it is a
worthwhile investment. When you believe in yourself, you are more likely to
achieve your goals and live a fulfilling life.
Think
positive about yourself and remind yourself of every positive act you did in
life which made your or others life easy or positive.
For example, helping your
parents in the kitchen when you were little or participating in a charity event
in school. Every small and big act of kindness will give you positive
vibrations and reasons to feel good about yourself and will increase your
belief in yourself.
Think about and make the list of all
obstacles you remember which you faced in life and how you managed to overpower
them.
By
doing so you will feel and realize there is always an achiever living inside
you which is your true self. And then it will become easy for yourself to
develop self-belief as you know that every experience of life teaches us
something.
Whenever
in doubt, think and feel that there is a supreme power in whose presence
everything exists and
keep faith first in that power that you will be guided and protected. You
should be aware of the special gifts given to you by God and believe in them.
Here I am not saying to blindly think and
become overconfident about you or about a situation. You should be critical
about things and think practically too but without fear and not neglecting what
the highest power and the universe is trying to tell you.
Impossible
things becomes possible when you work toward reaching you goals even after
practically judging a situation and facts you just feel that you should believe
in yourself and have faith in God that you’ll be guided and you will follow the
guidance with full trust, awareness and loyalty with constant positive
thoughts.
Specific ways that self-belief
can help you achieve your goals and make your dreams a reality:
Self-belief helps you to set
ambitious goals. When you believe in yourself, you are not
afraid to dream big and set ambitious goals for yourself. You know that you
have the ability to achieve anything you set your mind to.
Self-belief helps you to
develop a plan of action. Once you have set your goals, self-belief
helps you to develop a plan of action to achieve them. You are confident in
your ability to identify the steps that need to be taken and to execute on your
plan effectively.
Self-belief helps you to
overcome obstacles. When you encounter obstacles on your journey
to success, self-belief helps you to stay motivated and focused. You know that
you have the ability to overcome any challenge that comes your way.
Self-belief helps you to bounce
back from setbacks. When you experience setbacks, self-belief
helps you to bounce back quickly and learn from your mistakes. You know that
setbacks are a normal part of the journey to success and that you are stronger
and wiser for having experienced them.
Self-Belief
is the first step towards making your dreams a reality. The moment you will
start believing in yourself, your talents and in your strengths, you will see
that you’re beating the fear and self-created problems or excuses (you know
it’s in your brain especially when you are overthinking) and finally, you will
succeed in every step of life whether it’s related to you, your family, work,
education, lifestyle, dreams, relationships, and self-esteem.
So start the process of stepping on the ladder of success and making your life a blissful live by believing, understanding and respecting the most precious and treasurable person in your life, without whom nothing is possible to do in life for you…which is YOU, my friend!
