Be Somebody
An African proverb, from @CallUsCupid:
Nobody will think you’re somebody if you don’t think so yourself
Recognition of yourself and your qualities begins with yourself. If you don’t see your qualities, how can you expect anybody else to?
This doesn’t mean that you need to point out everything good about yourself. Just know that those qualities are there. The confidence boost will be amazing; people will notice the confidence, which will silently draw their attention to your positive attributes.
Likewise, self-knowledge of your negative attributes (don’t deny that you have them – everybody does) is the first step towards correcting them. People often say that admission is the first step towards correction, but before admission must come recognition.
