1
Believe in yourself
Never stop believing in yourself. Believing in yourself will take more than just putting confidence in your skills, as you have to constantly remind yourself of your capabilities. If you are working in a field where competition is tough and risks are high, you cannot afford to underestimate yourself and let others walk all over you. Do not let the disappointment ruin your career, since at many points in your life you will be expected to stand up for yourself. -

Focus on your positive points
It is up to you turn the negative into positive. Assess yourself and try to find out what you are really good at. There must be some traits that distinguish you from others and these traits (positive points) will encourage you every step of the way. While it is also common for people to have flaws in their personalities and they face failure on multiple occasions, but letting your weak points overcome you is the worst thing you can possibly do. If you are good at highlighting your positive points to yourself and others, you are also able to overshadow all your flaws and negative points. -

Learn from mistakes
The best way to appreciate yourself is to learn from your mistakes. Everybody makes mistakes and you are no exception to this. But not learning from your mistakes is the thing that keeps you from making progress. If you have made a mistake, assess what went wrong and what can be done to avoid it again. -

Do not let others’ actions upset you
Most of the times, it is the actions of other people which haunt you and keep you from moving ahead. Whether you are working at a company or running a business, it is common for you to encounter people who are always ready to discourage you with their actions. Be ready to take them on and prove your worth.
