How to feel proud of yourself

How to feel proud of yourself?
Self confidence and pride are two sides of the same coin. Its impossible for a person to feel proud of himself without first building confidence and its impossible for a person to feel confident without being proud of himself.

In order to feel proud of yourself you need to do something that no one has done before. But does this mean that you have to make an extraordinary achievement in order to feel proud of yourself?

While this is one method that will certainly work still there is a much easier one that any person could apply.

A story of a man who felt proud of himself

During a war 15 soldiers lost their way in the desert then suddenly they found themselves in the face of an enemy camp that had at least 400 soldiers. The enemy noticed them and shortly they started chasing them.

14 men ran away and only one man decided to stand his ground and fight. The man was shot in his arm then luckily a sandstorm came that allowed his friends to save him and run away.

The 15 soldiers survived the war. They didn't win this battle nor they even won the war yet the man who stood his ground lived feeling proud of himself for the rest of his life.

Do you know what's the moral of this story?
Feeling proud of yourself has a lot to do with the way you live your life with disregard to the results. Of course good results can help you feel more proud of yourself but even if you got no results your behaviour can make you feel really proud of yourself.

The right behaviour that can help you feel proud of yourself

As you saw in the previous story the man lived his life feeling proud of himself because he behaved in a different way.

Its easy to replicate that same behaviour without going to any war. In the Solid Self confidence program i said that most people live their lives with a defeated mindset.

• They keep blaming everything for their misfortunes
• They give up on their dreams and accept mediocre lives
• They act helpless instead of trying to find a way out
• They don't have a big dream, a vision or even an important goal
• They are not passionate about their goals even if they have big ones
• They follow the crowd because they don't dare to be different

Do you want to feel proud of yourself?
Just do the exact opposite
Find your purpose in life and the goals your are passionate about
Dare to get out of your comfort zone and to go to places that people always tried to avoid
When you become stuck focus on finding a way out instead of crying
Refuse to give up on your dreams when everyone gives up
Stand your ground when everyone runs away
Refuse to settle for less than what you believe you deserve

If you lived that way you will certainly be proud of yourself with disregard to the results.
