The reason I wanted to do this confidence challenge is very selfish. I have always been a little unsure of myself and very nervous. But the extreme anxiety I went through a few years ago really stripped me of any strength or confidence in myself. I had just enough energy to take care of the necessities for myself and my family, nothing more.
Now I am getting better. I feel like I have more energy to invest in myself and in relationships. To do that I need to have confidence that I have something to offer others. That is why I am doing this to regain confidence, to remind myself that I have something to offer in a relationship and to learn. I am being very selfish in doing this but I also hope that by sharing my story it will help others to know that you can make it through hard times also. The bad doesn’t last forever and things really do get better.
Day 6 – no advice about confidence but my reason for doing this challenge.
