When I was still in school I was such a nervous wreck! It's was insane how much of what others thought of me made me so worried and in a constant state of panic, while I thought so highly of others.

I learned different skills that with time and commitment helped me grow as a person and allowed me to keep my head up while others looked down on me.

Confidence

performance, muscle, girl, performance art, performing arts, Ah! Confidence - what everyone wants and only some naturally portray. Now the question is, how can I gain more confidence? This is where fake it till you make it really comes into action. Unfortunately, there isn't any overnight remedies or over the counter prescription that you can take to be able to become a confident badass within a few weeks. So until that day comes, we will all have to take the time to add different routines into our lives to get to where we want to be.

I started off with the old school "What do you love about yourself?" question, ugh! I know what you're all going to say, "That's so cheesy and stupid" but trust me after some time of doing this you will notice a difference. Stand in front of a mirror and take a close look of yourself - your eyes, nose, lips, skin, hair - and notice how pretty you are and remember to say these things out loud with conviction! If in the beginning its hard to say that you like your physical traits then start off with how amazing your personality is, whatever works for you! It's more about seeing how great you are without having to need compliments or acceptance from others.

Realize No One Really Cares

human hair color, blond, girl, socialite, long hair, This was something I really understood after I graduated. A friend of mine mentioned me to a group of past classmates after a few months of graduating and they could barely remember who I was and merely said, "Oh, she was the quiet one, right?". It dawned on me that everyone is way more focused on themselves to really care if your hair or outfit doesn't look great that day, or if your test results were below average because they are way more worried about themselves!

Try New Things

hair, human hair color, girl, blond, smile, I find for myself personally, that being a static, boring character wasn't helping me at all, but instead was feeding my insecurities even more. I didn't really get involved with my school's groups or teams because the majority of them I wasn't into. This was a rookie mistake! I lost out on gaining friends and valuable skills in learning to be comfortable talking to others, that is a great way to grow your confidence. In my senior year I tried out for cheerleading, dance, and I auditioned for two acting roles in the school plays. Even at this point, I was still terrified to audition and try out for all these different things but it really helped me grow out of my shell. By putting myself in new situations that made me uncomfortable, I became mentally stronger.

Realize Your Potential

performance, vocal coach, singer, song, singing, Remember the importance of realizing you have all the capability to improve and do all those amazing things you one day plan or dream to achieve, only if you're able to see your own potential and greatness from the very beginning of your journey!If you only feel good about yourself after your degree or your amazing accomplishments, then you're not being genuine with yourself! Realize how great you are from your worst to your best.

Make Goals

performance, festival, crowd, Figure out what you want to achieve in the next week, month or several months. It all depends on how big your goal is and how many you wish to achieve. Try starting off small, especially if you're just starting your journey to allow yourself the time to not freak out and slowly adapt to these new changes for good. By creating small and big goals this will help you continue to grow and gain the confidence you need to be successful.

Making goals that fit your end game is incredibly important, whether it's trying out for the basketball team or talking to two to four new people every week. Whatever it is, make the list and stick to it. I personally like to make monthly goals so I don't feel discouraged if I have a busy week and don't accomplish what I wanted to, as well as making sure to write the goals in a folder on my phone so I always have the list to remind myself.

facial expression, performance, emotion, singing, singer, Finally, understand that changing your mindset is hard but in the end, if you follow these skills it will happen. Our mind and bodies strive to stay the same, even if it's for the worse. Keeping your head in the game is what really matters, so remember why you wanted to begin this journey whenever you feel like giving up. The finish line is never as far as it seems when your first begin.
