Personal perspective

Personal perspective
I think this is a problem that most people find hard to cope with at any age, from a child to a
fully grown adult. Doubting themselves lead to self-hatred, decreased self-esteem and low
confidence. So, I believe believing in yourself helps a lot.

Personal experience
I was in football club at that time and one day my senior was sick so he couldn’t play the match,
so I was chosen to fill in his place. I was nervous because I didn’t believe in my skills even
though I train every day.

How I overcame
I took a deep breath to calm myself down and told myself if I played well this might be the
chance to leave everyone a good impression of me. See what I did there? Positive thinking
instead of self-doubt, it filled me with excitement and I did really well.
