What's the best way to stop feeling insecure about yourself?

Start hyping yourself up! Don’t focus on the negative, focus on the positive. When you look in the mirror, stop looking for things that are wrong and start pointing out the parts of yourself that you love. In the morning, name at least 3 things you appreciate yourself, then name 1 thing you want to work on. Set goals. Realistic ones. Also, stop letting others tell you what is beautiful and what isn’t. If YOU love YOU, that’s all that matters ✨

Try to think about a different thing you can do every day, write it down each day and for a moment focus so hard on that thing. You will feel even a tiny bit better every day and it will contribute to your self esteem. My sister is very secure about her abilities and one day she told me that she could do anything, almost any job, because she is very hard working and always developing different skills, and seeing her so confident about herself was so hard to even consider and so eye-opening as I have been struggling all my life with being insecure. She of course can't really do everything on this planet but the thought of it is enough to boost her self confidence. As for me I'm still trying to be a little less insecure (it depends on the day and situations) but the skill list helps when I feel down.

Remind yourself that you are not your insecurities. Your insecurities do not define who you are. Remember that everyone has their own personal insecurities, and they are more focused on their own insecurities than the ones you have. Think about the particular insecurity you have and ask yourself these questions. Are you insecure about it because you feel it does not align with what society says is acceptable? Do you feel this is something you should change about yourself because it negatively effects your physical or mental well-being? If your answer is yes, what are some steps you can take to make improvements? What resources are available to help reach your goals? What communities are available to help provide support?
