X asked me how I would rate myself on a scale of 1 to 10. My reply was a 10 out of 10.

Gone are the days when I would rate myself a 2 (I’m damn lousy), a 6 (I think I’m around average) or an 8 (I’m good but not good enough).

I’m a 10 because if I don’t give a value myself, no one will. Some people still spend their whole lives beating themselves up, feeling they are just not good enough. They lack the experience, knowledge and courage to do what they want. Hence they will never deserve to get what they want.

I’m a 10 not because I’m over-confident. Rather, I’m brimming with confidence. Confidence is a key factor in determining one’s success. Imagine going for a battle with a “we’ve bound to lose” mindset and you definitely will. When the body feels confident, it sends a signal to the brain to think confident. You see images of your past confidence in action and you hear the confidence tones. When all your senses are aligned, it’s absolutely impossible for you not to be successful.

I’m a 10 because I love myself. Short of thinking I’m self-egoistic, I need to love myself and accept me for who I am before others can start to love me too. I love my strengths. I love my weaknesses. I love my character. I love my personality. I love my successes. I love my learning experiences. I love every moment of my life. Chief of them all, I love myself because I am unique in this whole wide world
