How To Overcome Inferiority Complex by mrpoul(m): 5:01am On Nov 19, 2018
1. Concentrate more on yourself:
is not what others think about you that matter but rather what you think about yourself, quit thinking about what others will say and concentrate more on being yourself .
2. Understand the fact human is imperfect being:
Stop trying to be perfect in everything. understand the fact humans are born imperfect, don’t feel depress over what you did not do right, learn from wrong and move on
3. Get rid of imposter syndrome:
Get rid of that undeserving feeling. Believe that you deserve every good thing that is happening in your life. Accept the fact that, that beautiful girl loves you and you should be bold enough to love her back, don’t have the feeling like what does she sees in me? What could she possibly want from me? Imposter syndrome kill joy, change to I deserve the girl I’m intelligent enough for her.
4. Remember that people are humans also:
Understand that other have fear also, but most of them have been able to put their fear aside and come out of their shell.
5. Help other people overcome theirs:
Sometimes by assuming that other feel the same way like you do, and you trying to help them overcome their can really do the magic, you will try to look. Remember the saying ‘Do unto others what you would have them do unto you.’ So be generous and kind toward others who feel the same way you do. Try in making them feel comfortable. By doing so you will make yourself at ease thus reducing the feeling of inferiority complex.
6. Stop caring what others think:
Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt once said “no one can make you feel inferior without your consent”. Inferiority complex is a consequence of a constant consent of what other think about you, stop worrying about what other think about you because it is your opinion about yourself that matters and most at times their opinions are not real but are imaginary. So concentrate on your happiness.
7. Don’t compete with anybody:
Competition against others may result in depression, low esteem, understand that you are unique. Partying may not be your thing, staying indoors, playing video games may excite you, embrace that which works for you, embrace your unique nature, don’t compete with anyone but make sure you keep progressing. Be yourself.
8. Concentrate on your strength:
Concentrating on your strength like you might not have a good look but you are intelligent, why not harness your energy on being the best in your field? Try listing your positive attributes like you have a nice set of teeth, a nice shape, a nice leg and so on and concentrate on the things you have. Just like the saying count your blessings and name them one by one, do that and you will feel less inferior.
9. Take thing easily:
Don’t take life too serious, always have in mind that anything can happen. Expect little from life that way you won’t be surprise if thing do not go has plan consequently you won’t feel inferior to anyone. Try not to take things personal, you did something wrong, forgive yourself and move on
10. Let go of the idea of perfection:
They say “it is better late than never”. Don’t wait for the perfect time to act, there are no perfect time. Understand “perfection is an illusion”, inferiority complex is as a result of all always wanting to be perfect, which is not possible as a result of our human nature, the only thing we can do –is to do our best and expect it work out.
11. Know yourself:
No one can understand yourself better than you, so don’t take people definition about you, rather you should take your own definition about yourself. They say you are dull, rebuke them and believe you are smart. Keep on believing because the truth is that believe becomes reality. Understand yourself know what work for you and what does not work for, know your strength and weakness, know the area of your life that’s need improvement.
