Confidence… or the Lack of ?

Warning, this post is a Bigger Than Me Day!

Lately I have been struggling, and lacking in the confidence department. I am not sure why exactly?  Maybe because I have been in more pain lately. Pain is hard on the soul and everything else. It is hard to get excited about things when you don’t feel good, and it even makes me grumpy with the family…which is unusual, so I definitely have to get to the bottom of it soon.
Also having this much pain doesn’t exactly make me feel very creative, and normally  I have soooo many ideas running through my head that I can hardly wait to get up in the morning and start on them. So…I really have to get my body back in order, so my mind and spirit will follow! As I read these quotes I thought how true…

"If you have no confidence in self, you are twice defeated in the race of life."  ~ Unknown Author…. (Some times the world is a tough place to live, so it is vital that you believe in yourself first!)

“As is our confidence, so is our capacity.”  ~William Hazlitt ….( So true, if we believe in ourselves and our abilities, anything is possible! )

"Confidence doesn't come out of nowhere.
It's a result of something... hours and days and weeks and years of constant work and dedication."   ~Roger Staubach … ( I agree, the more I work and spend time at something, the better I get! )

“With confidence, you have won even before you have started."    ~Marcus Garvey … ( This is definitely a POSITIVE quote, having confidence helps you win the game of life! )

 

So now that I know what I should do… I just need to go do it!

Just like my daughter and her friends at college, doing synchronized swimming at the park…now that take confidence in ones self and self esteem. I need to have more pictures of myself just being silly and playing. I don’t really play very well. Sometimes I am probably too serious with life!

Well, thanks for believing in me… even on the days that I don’t  believe in myself!  Good night dear friends!
