YES YOU’RE FULL OF YOURSELF…SO WHAT??!!

I believe that achieving self confidence is an excellent reward for one's self because it’s an important virtue one can acquire to reach their goals and aspirations in life. When one gains self confidence, they tend to believe in themselves and carry faith knowing that everything they desire is achievable. One's thoughts and actions are engraved in positivity because one who attains self confidence is not consumed in negativity. Self confidence enhances the maturity of the mind, heart and soul because one that achieves this virtue puts their mind, heart and soul in everything they do.

 

You can never attain too much self confidence when it’s in lined with the word of God.
Self Confidence is limitless. There is no desirable level where you can say enough is enough, no more confidence.

 It’s like saying you have too much wisdom. It important to seek for more wisdom from God that can assist you to excels in life. You must always have an open mind to learn and explore new things about yourself. Self confidence paves the way for you to have the courage to take risk in life and makes you much stronger to say no to fear.

So, it is imperative to seek for more.

Because maturing in self confidence in God does not mean that you’re full of yourself.

It means…

You just have more assurance that you’re unique.

You just have more poise that you’re one in a billion!

You just don’t give a thought about what people have to say about you

Because you KNOW God made you this way.

SO, WHO CARES WHAT THEY HAVE TO SAY!!! LET THEM TALK

SELF ACTUALIZATION AND INDEPENDENCE

About 2 months ago, I wrote an article called “Till death do us apart”... This article was about Marriage and Relationships and the importance of knowing who we choose to spend our lives with. I have decided to repost one reader’s comment on the article and my response to the comment. Please feel free to read the comment and let me know your perspective on this topic as well...

This is the year when most of us (those 86ers) turn 25. I am also seeing more and more friends starting to tie the knot, and get engaged. I loved the fact that you mentioned the fine print, I am finding that some folks I know are merely doing these things simply to say "am doing it" - despite ill treatment from there significant others? What do you think about those that get engaged/married despite mistreatment from a spouse? Simply because they are trying to stay enroute with "the plan" that all others are adhering to, that is to 1) finish university 2) get married 3) have kids? what about self actualization, independence etc.. Don't get me wrong, I strongly believe in accomplishing great things, I have completed my Bachelors and Masters before hitting 25, as well as maintaining a relationship, however, I think that such a commitment should be made with a person that truly makes you feel special, and for the right reasons, and not merely as a fashion statement. 

Me …

I think many individuals are too comfortable in their relationships, even when they know it's unhealthy. Many young women are scared to end their relationships because they worry too much of what others are going to say about them. Yes, it understandable if you're in a relationship for long but some individuals want to please everyone, so they would stick with the plan and "do it" despite ill treatment from their partners. There are many factors that may also plays into this . ex// insecurities.

Moreover, I do believe that self actualization and independence is vital. Realizing your potentials and capabilities in life is significant, but sometimes some individuals may achieve self actualization through their significant others. For example, there are some boyfriends/husbands that encourage and support their girlfriends/wives to reach their full capabilities.

I think self actualization goes hand in hand with Independence

However, how long is a woman going to obtain the "independence" status for ? Don't get me wrong, we all say we are independent and strong women because we work, graduated, make our own money and feel like we don't need anyone to satisfy us... but there are times we may need someone by our side just to comfort, encourage , enhance our self esteem and boost self-awearness

So, if we do find someone that support us in everything we do, than it will make us feel special for the right reasons.
