In real life, most people seem confident. But when they can't have things they want, they are upset and lose themselves. Do you want to learn how to be yourself? Here are some suggestions.

Be kind to yourself

Appreciate what you have done. Everyone has different talents which can help to make the world become a better one. Remember you don't need to satisfy everyone. No matter what others think of you, just be yourself.

Make good friends

Always make friends with people who are willing to make you feel better about yourself. Good friends neither talk about how great they are nor praise you a lot. They enjoy being with you, not because you are like them, but because you are yourself.

Think about your family.

The values of your family are to give you what really need. Maybe you can't get help when you have small problems. But you can learn how to depend on yourself. When you meet big problems, your family will always be with you.

Hold on to your dream

Holding on to your dream can make you braver and stronger. On the way of achieving your dream, you'll know who you are and what you want. Even though you can't achieve it, you'll find you are better and you can still live a normal life.

In a word, you are the only one. Accept yourself and be yourself. Being unsuccessful doesn't mean you're not good enough. You just need a long way to go.
