❤️‍🩹 3. Be kind to yourself

Self-doubt will always come back.

You will always be in new situations that create new fears.

You will always meet new people to compare yourself to and feel inferior to.

In fact, if you're not doubting yourself every once in a while, it could mean that you're not growing!

So:

  • Treat self-doubt like your health. Both require consistent, long-term maintenance, not a one-time fix.
  • Treat mindfulness like an exercise. Do it consistently to reap the benefits.

And when your self-doubt comes back from time to time, don’t beat yourself up over it.

Remember, it’s not a failure, but a learning opportunity ❤️
