How to Build Self Confidence 

thanks Michelle. ;D

This is all so true. Thanks, Mish! I really needed this today. It was just one of those days where I wasn't feeling good about myself at all and felt like it was hopeless, but this video gave me a burst of confidence in myself.

you didn't really get sued right? :'(

Why are you getting sued mish this is ridiculous

lovey_dovey123 Yeah shes getting sued. Its really ridiculous. They want to take all of her profits from all of her videos.

SwaggBear93 Easier said than done. Thank u for the advice though

+Maleah Manning Trust me I feel the same. I feel ignored, unwanted, useless. But remember that you came into this world for a reason... It may take a long time to find what that reason is. In fact I'm still on my journey. Your confidence may not show but I know it's there. It's hard to remember that all the time but you're special. Stay strong ❤❤

+xDragonTrainerx // Lord Of The Dragons Thank u so much😊❤

+Maleah Manning No problem! I'm really glad I was able to make you happy!

Literally same.

Then it's just me like... It relaxes me😂I don't know why😂

***** your little post really touched me and helped boost my confidence. Thank you

Thank You ❤️😃

OhMyGod you're So Right! Same Thoughts!

Ahsoka T you are pretty right.

seriously though Michelle's videos help me through my saddest times

danilo mitic I'm triggered why can't be be girl and both guide to self confidence

ManrayGaming Actually my brother uses my channel too,i use it for gaming stuff tho :D like csgo and other but my brother also watches some youtubers on my channel,sorry i dont have anything with the comment,its my brother

Thanks for this: I am going through exactly what you descibed and I'm glad there's somebody else who know how lonliness feels. :)

From looking at your profile pict I see you're a beautiful lady. It made me sad to read that you have no friends :'/ but I'm sure you'll meet a lot of awesome people when you're ready to get "out there" (I mean when you're an adult out of school etc). Good luck

I agree with Samurai Sakura. When I see your profile picture, I see a beautiful lady and I'm sure that you'll meet a lot of wonderful people when you're out of school. People who will love and appreciate you for being you. I can understand the situation you are in though as I went through the same thing in high school; I moved to a new school and no one wanted to be friends with the new girl. I'm actually not going to my high school reunion because I refuse to celebrate with people who tortured me for 4 years.

I'm going through the same thing , i feel lonely at times by not having close friends or best friends this comment made me think that there are others just like me and I'm not as lonely as i thought i was ...thank you :')

esmeralda munoz You're welcome and much love to you

Oh Mina. I'm glad we are youtube buddies. And you are beautiful!!! I didnt see any flaws of yours. You are just perfection! I agree with everything you said. Well said hunn!

Samurai Sakura Thank you for your sweet words, and I agree with you. It's truly a shame! This young girls and also boys, are the future leaders of this world. How can they lead and prosper if they feel inferior and insecure?! Zara Tyson Dear Zara thank you for being so sweet and supporting me. I'm also, VERY glad we are youtube buddies. Now, am I perfection? Far from it! But I'm perfectly Mina as you are perfectly Zara. We are all just perfect at being ourselves right? So why try to get into a mold?

Thanks. :) I needed that. going through a hard time here.. i love you people who go out and encourage people like me. Someday..i hope i'll be able to inspire and motivate others who are in the same route. God bless all of you. :)

you are beautiful No matter what they say WORDS CANT BRING YOUU DOWWNN *cringe intensifies*

Chrysanthemumarixo I don't get you?

They say that you're unique. Every single person on this planet is unique. Why feel so special about being unique when theres other people who are unique as well. Its nothing new. I sound so pessimistic right now and this is probably irrelevant but whatever x)

Chrysanthemumarixo Well the amount of people in this world it is hard to be unique.

Yes

yeah but that's the thing: we're all UNIQUE that means there is literally no one who is the same crazy combination of things as you, there never has been and there never will be. like I don't know you but I know that meeting you would be completely different to meeting anyone else, you know?

*hugs* so proud of you beautiful!

Michelle Phan omgsh! i can't believe you answered. you just made my year :') thank you so much, michelle! really. :') you really made a huge impact in my life. God bless

***** omgshh! you're so sweet! thank you so much, jamie :')

No I subscribed to you (;

koreanlovesbeauty your comment literally describes me!!! Michelle has been such an inspiration and given me the confidence to start a fashion channel here on RU-vid, and even though I just reached 814 subscribers, I am very thankful

I think ur amazing. .. screw society's norms. .. u are amazing and unique. . Keep doing wht ur doing

If you're gorgeous on the inside, it will shine on the outside aswell💞xx

+Ena Laurencic (FashionistaKitty02) very true

ik it kind of pissed me off because of course they are confident

And I'm sure you are too ❤️

+Ena Laurencic (FashionistaKitty02) or puberty hits you, so you look like a monster for the rest of your life X'D

Indeed it is 😉

Good luck!

Ur gonna do amaaziiinngggg

+reemobooks thanks so much you are so sweet and a wonderful person!

+skyblue blue Thankss :)) 💕💕

+ForeverUnsocial Tysm ! 🛍

so true :)

True..

Unfortunately you're right... I have the same problem

okay i am not beautiful, and a year ago it was really depressing me. but somehow i started getting over it and following those tips, but believing in them helps. they do. beauty isn't everything. just give a try!

Back when there was a dislike button. Lol

When I was in middle school and high school, I was very shy and barely spoke. But as time went by, I became more confident in myself. Don't feel pressured or rushed, because it doesn't happen overnight. Read sentences out loud, practice in front of the mirror by yourself (awkward but it doest help) and remember, that most people who are listening to someone else talking most likely are not there to judge or look down on you. They're just listening, so if you speak from your heart, they'll feel it :) Good luck love!

Me too I even got bullied

Michelle Phan You're the best

and her HAIR is the best too

you'll get there. All I can say is that I've been where you are before myself, hey I even get self conscious about what I wear now. Just remember that all that negativity comes from you. Never let someone else try to make you feel like you're not beautiful and awesome the way you are. Those people who bullied you will have major insecurities themselves, trust me. You should feel sorry for them that they feel like they have to make someone else feel like crap in order to feel better about themselves. you're not alone. I know its hard, I remember how hard it was for me in highschool. You should love your body. It's yours. its a gift. cherish the fact that it even works properly! because other people aren't as fortunate. Just always be kind and empathic and genuine. stick to your morals and do whats right and work hard to be the best possible person you can be. One day you'll move past these insecurities and be able to love yourself and not care as much what others think. you're still young, just be patient :) we've all been there! hope this helps xx

Ixy Maro awww thank you so much! ♥♥

me too. and im 28. i love shorts but hate showing my legs. I hate how they look in them! ughh, youre not alone

that's the same with me. I just don't know why, but I don't feel comfortable in short sleeves or shorts unless I'm at home or just not at school.

Do it while you can, I'm 23 and my body is getting less and less attractive for shorts and such. Grasp every moment and live to the fullest. I feel horrible because I feel that my body is aging a lot quicker than others. And my skin has a lot of scarring and is uneven in shade and shape. But I'm fighting to become a more confident person even now. So hold on!

A real friend would never tell you that. Friends are there to encourage you and show you how amazing you are when you don't see it. You don't need someone like that in your life beautiful.

my "friend" called me mean, evil, crazy, insane, selfish and unwanted. (that's just to name a few) count your blessings lol

My former best friend use to call me stupid and other names. On top of that, the same friend would not share a missing persons poster for my dad when he was missing. I tried to use the , if you were in my postition, I would do everything I can. She said I would never be in her position because no one in my family was as crazy as my dad and that it was ridiculous of me for trying to find him. That feeling of the person who is supposed to be there for you, but instead stabs you in the back, is one of the most painful experiences. long story short, I know how you feel. I have never spoken to her since, except when she asked why I was being a bitch by not talking to her I simple said sorry, it must be my lower iq being ignorant (since she was always calling me stupid and I wouldn't understand because I wasn't as smart as her).

Awwwww.... Im sorry that you had to go through that. i guess everyone has this one person who is just like that....

***** if that person is syaing those mean things to you and trying to make you believe it then thats not a real friend you should surround yourself with positive and encouraging friends

same😂

You can be good at anything you want to be. Try everything, keep working, but don't push yourself too hard. Don't limit yourself, there are so many possibilities.

Me

Me 🙁

You're good at getting a top rated comment

I've been in your shoes in and out through my life. I know its very lonesome when you don't have a friend to talk about this stuff with, and I also know that everyone can be very self-conscious about the way they look. The one thing I learned going through this road is that strictly focusing on your flaws will paralyze you from ever growing. Its like depression; you don't want to go outside, and you just want to sleep longer and longer in your bed. However if you look at that, it looks like you went frozen. Nothing changes, nothing grows, and nothing moves. When nothing changes, your body won't change, your sadness won't go away, and happiness won't come. Its completely clogged with the sickly mentality of downing yourself, and I feel that is the one thing that many people fall into. So I want to say is that focusing on your mental and spirit side is the key to ever completely changing oneself inside out. I think the first thing you can do is start getting more gratitude in your life. Start being thankful for even for the things we take for granted. I promise you, there are thousands upon thousands of things to be thankful for, and you can find many just within yourself. Don't worry, you are mightily special when you get the universe in your eyes, and you are mightily unique as well. I hope you can find more love within yourself soon! I wish you luck on your journey

Don't feel alone. I'm here for you. I see girls. They're beautiful. I look at myself and wonder why. Why am I so ugly? But I always remind myself the good things about me. I have nice hair, healthy teeth, cute dark brown shiny eyes. A nose that is unique and something no one in this world will ever have. Life is a puzzle piece. Your trying to figure out where does each piece below. Let me paraphrase. In life, your discovering who you are, and your choosing the right or wrong lane. We all have imperfections, but this is what makes us perfect. Just remember that there will be haters trying to bring your self esteem down, but in God's eyes your beautiful and capable of so much. Always remember to stay confident and strong. It makes us humans a more attractive person.

*belong (lol not below)

Just think about family bondings, when you and your friends get crazy, and many more. When ever I do this a smile always appear on my face.😀

I'm late, but thank you guys so much. :) I've been slowly becoming more confident. I love all the advice and stories you guys have replied with.

Hey, don't be like that, it can be anything, there is always always one purpose for why we are living the life we live, and that's the thing we are good at... It doesn't have to be big, I used to think that because I was an awful singer and that I didn't really have talent in either painting or sports I had no skills. But with time, my friends made me realize that math was like, you know, ''my'' thing, and even if it's a little nerdy, if you really think about it, it can make you progress on a whole lot of levels... I thought of it the way of a gift only a few have, to be really good in this particular subject that is the one most students fail, and that Having the opportunity to follow a path closed or hard to follow for those people is something life offered me. Sometimes, people can be even jealous of you, for a certain ability you didn't even credit yourself for, and that is why you need to believe you have it, cause YOU DO!!!!!

Good luck. I believe in you.

gud luck

You're going to be a very good make up guru :)

Good luck. love and hugs.

Even though i dont know you, i Can tell you are very tough! And you are going to her very far :)

Well, the main population watching her videos are girls, so...............😜

That may be true but this is called "Girl's Guide" which is meant for girls :)

Well just about 99.99% of Mish's viewers are female...

She said they were universal tips they apply to everyone and anyone

lyndsay april ^^^^ Haha !

+Peter Jang and your a jerk. All because it doesnt make you emotional doesnt mean you have the right to insult someone effected by it.

I also cried, this video made me emotional

I LOVE YOU AND MISH I LOVE YOU BOTH

Same here!

GalaxyMeow awww this comment made me so happy! :) Glad Michelle helped

GalaxyMeow One of the best on this subject. This method I found online helped me to achieve my goals, www.selfconfidenceachievement.blogspot.com

+GalaxyMeow I was about to comment the exact thing

Missy Irina I felt that too😊😊

+Justine White Yep!

Beautiful ☺

That's great !

Awhh Dodie I found youuuu

Those girls arent models, they're every day girls! Honestly they probably look better inthe video then in real life bc theyre human like everyone else! I know its hard to feel beautiful especially when you feel you family/siblings look way better that you i know exactly where your coming from but you shouldn't let the way you feel about you appearence get in the way of enjoying you life! No one is perfect. And dont let anyone make you feel any less than what you are really worth! If you dont feel beautiful make yourself feel beautiful wear that bright nail poish and that funky shirt and let your hair down to blow in the wind let your colors show! Be you! Its fun and it will make you feel amazing

See I know how you feel. I may not look like you physically, I can still understand. For the past like 19 years I always hated my body cuz I was always thicker then all my classmates or I was too tall growing up. But I realized that I'm only gonna get one body. If you want to feel healthier, loose weight. Don't do it for someone else though. If you think you being thinner is going to improve your lifestyle do it. Embrace your gorgeous curly hair and your dark eyes. And trust me when you get older, you will love your big chest. Right now it may not seem like it but there is a life outside of school. Don't compare yourself to anyone else because they could be comparing themself to you. Saying I wish I had her this and that and also because you are one of a kind and everyone else is taken so you get to be you. Enjoy what you have been given and ignore all the hate, soon it won't even matter. :)

try to smile, even a fake one in the beginning ^_^ and here's the question: why are you trying to be beautiful for? the world? your friend has porcelain skin, ok. others like it. so what? Think: if tomorrow, everyone in the world was blind, and the only one who could see me was ME, would I be ok? If your answer to THAT is "no", then start lookintg into why that is. But do it for YOU. And if you want to make your dreams happen, start with your inside and work your way out. If for example you wanted to lose weight, it would never work(and last) if you didn't do what you love in life. If you hat your job, your boyfriend, your friends.. if you have no hobbies... you see my point? :) Just close your eyes, breathe, and imagine yourself, all alone. That's what loving yourself means. Be your best friend and accept that THE ONLY PERSON YOU'LL HAVE UNTIL YOU DIE, IS YOU. So do it for YOU, not for "people who will say: you're pretty"...

All those beautiful qualities that you possess is what makes you beautiful in your own way! I know that it can be hard when the media has based looked for women. But being the same as everyone else is no fun at all. You are unique and beautiful in so many ways. So please don't doubt yourself! ❤️

This is depressingly true, but the world doesn't have to work like that. If you have the right friends and the right lifestyle that fits you comfortably, you wouldn't have to deal with confidence issues or changing yourself. If you believe what you have said so strongly, I reckon you haven't found your life friends yet.

daisy miles youre correct i havent. Not to sound like bad, but i have no reliable friends or family, which what i wrote is for the people who feel they are well and truely on thier one. But your completely right in saying you have the support of friends and family.

Same😊

Same here 💕

Nice

Kids bullied me all the way in high school ^^ If you can understand that they're just not happy with themselves, that they got nasty parents/upbringing, and not cover yourself up and cry like I did then you're lucky. i have full lips, and my "best friend" used to say "you got FAT lips" (fat, not full) so I always tried to hide my mouth and cry about it... Even if my mom was saying i'm beautiful, I never believed her.. Then, my boyfriend kissed me and said I looked like Angelina Jolie (cause of the lips probably..:p) and nightmare was over.. forever.. WRONG WAY to get over it, but I did learn a lesson for all the rest of my self concious crap! You're on the right track, I think. Wear whatever u like PROUDLY. YOLO!! haha ;p

It means they weren't true friends, but mean people. I think you just have to find someone who actually suits your own person, someone who tells you the truth but not in a mean way.

I love to wear make up and some ppl in my country are utter douche bags and they says rude things like "Why do u wear it and why do u need it" and they laugh in a mocking way but I dont give a crap because I love to wear make up :) it makes me even more confident than I already am :D

sparkly shoes are the fucking bomb.

I have my own clothing style, it does have an expensive brand, but nobody wears it because its very expensive and dary. Every time I wear something, everybody makes fun of me, or says they like it and then laugh at me.. People are mean, you have to ignore them, I know its hard, I'm trying too..

That "good luck" at the end always gets to me 😂 anyway, you have no idea how happy your comment made me, I LOVE seeing people who have overcome whatever sadness they were going through because no one deserves to feel like this. I hope I can come back soon and tell you the same

It sucks when people don't tell the truth, personally I once cheated but I immediately told my GF what happened and we broke up, but atleast I didn't hide it...I felt terrible the entire time...but hey if they were too scared to tell you then he shouldn't even be worth your time

She has made a video for that too long ago

look at her video Girl's guide to starting over. It's all about dealing with a difficult breakup

Girl's Guide to Starting Over

I think you should get to know many more guys and plant seeds in different places to form relationships/friendships. And by get to know I literally mean just that (not like a hoe or anything). This way getting to know different atmospheres will automatically make you see more, try it. Also focus on yourself. Focus a passion you enjoy or that may lead to a career (if you don't have one yet in mind) that makes you grow as a person; being heart broken and betrayed can inspire and make you more passionate by transferring that energy there. Also you deserve someone mature and worth your time, this person disrespected you and doesn't deserve you! I know it looks hard and like there's no hope in finding someone unique like him, but that's just it. Because we're all unique, you'll find someone you didn't think existed from a whole different world who will treat you like a princess and protect you. Believe me guys like this exist plus who are actually hot! If you're more independent like this, you'll find someone more like you who is hopefully loyal & respects you

well said.ı have same problem.but ı dont really care about it.If someone evaulate me with a little red bulge in my face that means he/she is the ugliest person in the world.just my opinion :)

I agree with you. I have acne (slightly severe cystic) and let me tell you I would've dropped that friend in a second !

I have the same problem I care about what people think about me, I try to say and do stuff to impress people but im trying my best to change that now ^-^

makeupinmidnight dont worry i know what you mean ☺

I was just like that, too. Trust me, you can change, if you constantly work on that. And sooner or later you will change just because you grow older and find other sides on yourself. Just don't let it get you down! Then there's nothing that can go wrong ;)

Kat Yes thanks that really means alot 💕

You're welcome, sweetie! ;)

Yup

Good idea

about depression

e a lot of peopple suffer an mostly teens watch u and i read that now a lot of them suffer

She can only do that if she has suffered from depression herself, which she might have but I don't know. Are you having trouble dealing with depression? I had trouble for about 6 years, yet I don't know how to help other people who struggle with it :( If you are feeling depressed, I really hope you get well soon. Good luck (Y)

Abdu7b i know i asked her bc all these suecide teens killed them selfs because off depression and how i know 80 precentage of her subs are teens maybe she could help them bc i had once depression and i know how it is but now i know how to deal

I am too'

Im 16 and still going through those things what you mentioned. It's going to be long trip i guess :/

Awh dang it

Thanks for the tip Soffe v

The whole figuring out who you are stage never really ends. But that's not a bad thing. It's all part of life's journey as you grow older and mature. Self discovery is a fascinating thing but I wouldn't be too concerned with focusing on the path you want to go through in life just yet. You're twelve. In a few short years you won't recognize yourself with how much you've changed. Live in the present because you're only young once :) Good to see you are goal oriented though. I also was at your age. I'm twenty now.

Omg! Yes! I'm laughing so hard rn.😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

+steph m LOL

laughing out loud. 😰

LOL I love this video, but it is true XD
