Learning how to confidently face yourself and your flaws is one of the hardest things to do. But if you are able to do that, you can find solutions to make yourself a better person because that's what we all want to be right? Better people? I have recently re-evaluated myself and discovered that I have quite a bit of insecurity. It's no surprise to me, but what I have done to create a new mindset of confidence is this.... I looked at all of my strengths and made a list and compared them to insecurity. Well, when I saw one flaw compared to my strengths, it made me realize that it is so easy to pick on the bad things and overlook the good. I'm not saying I only have one flaw, but I chose to focus on one thing that really brings me down and work on it until I feel better about myself in that regard. Not ignoring other aspects I need to work on, just picking my battles so to speak. So here I am, able to laugh at myself and really feel good because I am actively working on things I don't like about myself. And that my friends, is something I put on the good things list.

Allow yourself to be happy.

Best wishes, Nana
