If you're anything like me, you had to learn the difference between being humble and knowing your worth. Knowing your worth means that you know that you aren't just some piece of trash or just a waste of air and space. You understand that you are important and that you have a purpose in this life- whether or not you know what that purpose is. Knowing your worth also means you know what you will or will not stand for/accept in your life. That's where some of us may get it confused.
Humility is accepting and acknowledging that even though you are a great person you are still a flawed person. Humility is not huperfocusing on your flaws. Humility is not lowering your self value and it is NOT forgetting that you have needs, too.
You can be humble and still let people-including yourself- know that you are to be valued. How? Let's go back to the name of this blog: confidence. Start by changing how you walk and how you talk. When you talk, enunciate and don't rush or talk too slow. You don't have to raise your voice to make a point; you just have to show (with the pre-mentioned methods) that you mean what you say. When you walk keep your chin level (not up or down) and don't slouch or tense your shoulders. When you walk into a room, you don't have to command attention but you shouldn't look scared or uptight either. Trust me...there's an in-between. If you have anymore questions on how to practice your self worth- and I haven't finished this series yet- just look it up. There are many websites that will help. If you are a teen or young adult try fervr.net . Until next time, stay CONFIDENT.
