How To Deal With Insecurities

Insecurities And Low Self-esteem

How to deal with Insecurities, low self-esteem, doubt.....

We all have it. Starting something new is scary. We don't have the knowledge and the experience. We lack the skills. We don't possess the know how yet.

I'm going to spill my guts out here. Again. When I first jumped on the affiliate marketing business and blogging in late 2019 I had no clue about what I get my self into.

My Vision

I had a vision. And I still have. To make online business a full-time job so that I could provide for my self and my fiancee. I'm fed up living from paycheck to paycheck and barely have enough money.

I want enough money to take my better half out to dinner and have enough money to buy clothes. I have a vision to help people who struggling financially and show them there is an alternative out there. Even if you are not able to keep a regular 9-5 job.

Why? Because I have been there and I'm still there. I am struggling with chronic back pain and have done so since 2009. Today, 2020 I'm 32 years old. That is mentality exhausting!

How To Achieve Success Online

My solution was to go online and make my own destiny. But I had a lot of insecurities. And I still do.

# Will I be able to make it?

# Will I provide enough value to people?

# Is my content good enough?

# How about my bad writing skills?

# Will people understand my content and what I want to provide?

# What would people I have never spoke to think of me as a person?

The irony is that this is a people business. I didn't see that coming. I was hoping I could hide behind my keyboard and that's that. Well, I don't need to say that was not the way to think.

When I first started out I struggled with writing 200 words. How in earth would I be able to write 1200 + words?

How could I be able to find valuable content and know what to write about?

You see, to succeed online you need to get out of your comfort zone. You need to reach out to people who have succeeded. You need to do what they do. Get coaching, and foremost you need to be coach able.

You need to follow the steps that is proven to work. No question asked. But the thing is people want to do their own things. Take shortcuts. They don’t believe in the system. That's why people are failing. They don’t take the proper action or taking the process seriously.

How To Get Out Of The Comfort Zone

If you do your research out there you will find people who will help you. You will find groups and communities that will help you. I was talking with an awesome guy at Facebook and he gave me a challenge.

I never participate in challenges in Facebook. You may have seen them "like and share this picture of this sad cat to make the cat happy " or something else.....

But this challenge was indeed a different one. Engage in 1000 conversations in each month!

Why did I decide to participate? Think about what this will affect your insecurities. This was something that I needed. In this digital age, have you ever asked your self when you actually had a conversation with someone? On messenger or person to person? How many of your friends on your Facebook are you actually engage with?

To have any progress in life we need to confront our demons. We need to act despite fear.

Forget

Everything

And

Run

Or

Face

Everything

And

Rice

There is a quote by Mary Sarton: "Without darkness nothing comes to birth, as without light nothing flowers."

If you take action despite your fear, despite your insecurities, despite your low self -esteem and your doubt, you will grow as a person. You start to get confident in your self and you start believing in your self. You start challenging your self more and more.

The other day I made my first video training at Wealthy Affiliate.

Somehow this has been a barrier to me. I have doubts in my self that I haven't the right know how on how to do it and if people find it valuable. But I can't think like that. And neither should you.

You can't please everyone. Even if you want to. I have an urge to do. Why? I don't know, but I know that to move forward I need to just do it more and more and make it better and better.
