You know what amazes me is how as women we feel beautiful after we get our hair done. Then about a week later we lose that spirit of confidence because our hair is not as fresh. Why do we do that? Why do we allow little things to take away from how we feel about ourselves. Confidence is key. But easier said then done right? Listen honey, you are beautiful inside and out and all you have to do is change your mindset. Your beauty is apparent you just don't see it. So, it's time that you do.
Confidence has nothing to do with looks, if you want me to be honest. Self confidence is literally how you view yourself. It's you telling people why they want you on their team without you telling them. It's your inner light. It's something that's far beyond clothes, hair, makeup, body etc. Yes, those things enhance your confidence but when you take it off, wipe it all away, will you wipe away your confidence too?
God created every part of us. He designed us to be beautifully flawed. It was never to make you feel bad because you wasn't taller or didn't develop the way you wanted. It was about embracing you! God is a God of ordered. When he define who you would be, he shaped everything else around it. It was society who started saying "this is how every women should look." But that's utterly bull. God wants you to look like you, embrace it, and help inspire another person to see the beauty in them too.
If no one tells you your beautiful are you going to pout it or are you going to tell yourself? Tell yourself your beautiful. The most beautiful thing a women can wear is self confidence. When you know who you are, no one can tell you otherwise. I myself dealt with insecurity but now I am more confident than before.

Leave post it notes every where! Write positive messages on them like, "Your beautiful", "God loves you unconditionally", "Your one of a kind." Seeing these reminders help you to begin to shape a positive mindset. It is you confronting the issue and saying the opposite. Another thing, I do is listen to inspirational music like India Arie! The latest one on repeat right now is called "I am light." It is amazing!
Be around people who bring out the best in you, who motivate you and lift you up when you are down! Clean house, don't have negative people around because that is what fuels the insecurities and bad thoughts. Sweep them out the door. If you feel as though you don't have no one remember your best friend, father in heaven, God almighty! And you got ME! You can chat with me via email or my Instagram, or get on my phone line. I send inspirational text messages every morning and the reviews are beyond belief.
If it's something physically, listen God wants you to be healthy but in the right way. Don't go on an extreme diet that results only last a month. It's a lifestyle change, something you will do forever. For me exercise has always been about being healthy. But the best thing about exercising is that it makes you feel really good and happy. Go for the right reasons and start off with something light! Your not competing against no one remember, your strengthen your mind, body and soul.
Most importantly ask God for help. I will be total honest. All these things worked, but now I'm on another level where God is the driver of each and every aspect of my life. A lot of things I thought I couldn't let go, I did and without even realizing it. All the wrong switches got turn off and all the right switches got turned on. When you go to God with your whole heart. And you don't have to know everything in the bible, just go to him with a willing heart and he will do the rest. Step by step he will lead you to who he called you to be. A light for all to see.
