"Millions of (people) believe they aren't good enough, feel unsure of themselves and insecure in situations. Each of us is special and worthy of respect.
Here are ways to get to know - and like - you:
Start by taking an honest look at your life, and accept what cannot be changed.
Try to understand that other people also have fears and worries.
Don't bottle up your feelings. (Write them down or talk them out).
Learn to bounce back.
Question the role you are playing in your life.
Don't use the fact that you are (unexceptional looking) as an excuse for failure.
Talk yourself into self-confidence.
Give and you will receive.
Take advantage of opportunities to learn.
Don't try to be completely perfect today, this month, this year.
Dress for yourself.
Let yourself have some fun.
Look after yourself.
Treat others as you would like to be treated.
Learn a few relaxation techniques.
Talk to someone.
Make your own decisions.
Have bold hopes and dreams.
Never compare yourself with other people, (compare yourself with yourself this time last week/month/year).
Remember you aren't going to make changes because you're a FAILURE.
