Got Confidence?

[Warning: This is not me. She is a make-up guru from Youtube.=D I like her message. I just thought I might share it with everyone.]

I think most of us have to hear this.No matter if u are a guy or a girl. I,myself have problems with self-confidence in my life. I am always self-conscious about how I look, how I act towards people, what people think, being hurt by what people say..and it really brings me down.To the point where I don't know what to think about myself anymore. It happens in everyday life.For the past 3 years I start to at least focus on myself and not to worry about peer pressures. I turned down many invitations for "night-outs", I choose to let my hair straight although everyone curled their hair, I stay with my own style while others look really good in the latest fashion, I choose to be patient while everyone has their first car, I choose to stay at home while everyone is attending a party/reunion, I listened to my music while everyone listened to latest music on the radio. and the list goes on.. Of course there are times I try to be like others by doing what everybody is doing, but.....it does not work for me. You know what? I am glad, really glad with what I did. No one in this world, no one, will understands you 100%. So the best thing is not to expect much from others. That is one thing I learn from this 23 years on earth.

I came across this video from Jlovesmac1. I don't really know her but I think she HAVE something to say which makes a good point. Despite of the funny things she mentioned in her videos, I would say she portrayed what a girl thinks of herself, and personally I think one have to have really good self confidence to say something about herself, that is different from others. I hope this new year, and for years to come, I can be truly happy, positive and confident with myself. It is not an easy step but nothing is impossible when you truly believe. I hope it will do the same for you too.
