How many times have you felt insecure
In that you weren't quite good enough
That you failed the test to be the best
And that your actions would be rebuffed?

How many times have you felt rejection
By someone who didn't understand
Though your motives were right; your intentions were pure
Your explanation was all but banned?

How many times have you felt unworthy
Of sincere actions or good deeds
When you thought someone was better; much better than you
And you thought it wise to quietly concede?

How many times have you been rebuked
By something you said or did
When you were misjudged and meant no harm
As your actions or words were only misread?

We have all experienced these disheartened ordeals
At one time or another in our life
But at the very same time we are who we are
And we must get past the grief and the strife.

By searching our souls and looking deep inside
We can assess our qualities and traits
And by honoring our strengths and identifying our flaws
We can truly overcome and slowly elevate.

Insecurities, rejection and unworthiness are very real feelings and thoughts, and very difficult ones to overcome.  To prevail over any of these obstacles, it requires a very deep and honest soul-searching.  We are not and never will be perfect, no matter how much we would like to be.

To be able to recognize our own personality flaws and do whatever we can to change or improve on them is one of the most difficult steps we can ever take.  In the end, however, the rewards are very satisfying. Not only will we feel better about ourselves, but we will have accomplished the biggest step we will ever take to becoming all that we are and all that we were meant to be.  Just believe in yourself.

"Believe In Yourself"

If you believe
Within your heart you'll know
That no one can change
The path that you must go.

Believe what you feel
And know you're right, because
The time will come around
When you say it's yours.

Believe there's a reason to be
Believe you can make time stand still
You know from the moment you try
If you believe, I know you will.

Believe in yourself, right from the start
You'll have brains, you'll have a heart
You'll have courage
To last your whole life through.

If you believe in yourself
If you believe in yourself
If you believe in yourself
As I believe in you.
