KNOW yourself, and then you know what to do next….

Do not be like a tree, because it depends on the wind, if the wind come from south, it follows, and when the wind come from the north, it also be that way…it means following what other tell them to, not able having own decisive answer.

But be a person who has a firm believe in yourself, who knows what to do when crisis arise, therefore, it is important to know what you want and who you are actually.

I guess, that’s why when an interview is done, one of the questions that will be asks is what is your motto. Your motto shows your attitude. Let say an example, “ my motto is to walk ahead and never give up”… isn’t it shows that this person has a high perseverance because he knows that no matter what, he will walk on.

You also cannot ask people who you are, because that answer can only be answered by you. Other people cannot determine what kind of person you are, they can see, they can judge and say anything about you, but only you know yourself better than anyone else.

Therefore, know yourself, know who you are, know yourself deeper, therefore when crisis strike, you know what to do.

As for me, I’m still get to know myself much better. I’m like tree, depending on where the wind is going to take me, and I follow suit, and it so tiring. I guess the process of learning own self is not as easy as it sound.

Finding Self-Confidence Through “Stay the Same”

Finding Self-Confidence Through “Stay the Same” Growing up, music often became a source of comfort and connection, and one song that truly stood out to me was *"Stay the Same"* by Joey McIntyre. Its lyrics about self-acceptance and self-confidence resonated with me in a way that felt both reassuring and empowering. At its heart, *"Stay the Same"* is a reminder that we don’t need to change who we are to be worthy of love and acceptance—a message that was both profound and comforting, especially as a young person navigating self-doubt and the desire to fit in. The opening line, *"Don’t you ever wish you were someone else,"* is like a gentle wake-up call. It’s so easy to fall into the habit of comparing ourselves to others, wishing for qualities we don’t have or feeling inadequate because of some perceived flaw. As a young person, hearing these words felt like a validation that who I was, as I was, was enough. It’s one of those rare reminders that our val...

What People Don’t Understand About Those Struggling with Low Self-Esteem

Living with low self-esteem isn’t just a fleeting feeling of inadequacy—it’s a deep-rooted struggle that colors how someone sees themselves, others, and the world around them. For those who don’t experience it, it can be hard to understand the invisible challenges faced by people grappling with low self-esteem. These struggles go far beyond occasional self-doubt and affect every facet of life, from relationships to careers and personal well-being. 1. The Constant Inner Critic People with low self-esteem often live with a relentless inner critic. This voice magnifies every flaw, criticizes every decision, and makes even small mistakes feel monumental. To outsiders, this might look like perfectionism or overthinking, but it’s more than that. It’s a battle against self-doubt that can paralyze decision-making and sap joy from achievements.
