Try to improve, even just a little, those things that are bothering you about yourself. Just a small step in the right direction will help you to feel better about yourself and may start a trend in the right direction. Also, I truly believe in the saying "Fake it til you make it!". Even if you don't feel your best, act as if you do. Eventually you will begin to feel the attitude you project. Absolutely everyone has some good things about them. Discover what yours are and focus on highlighting those things to yourself as well as to others. And remember that opinions vary. Some people will like things about you that others can't stand and vise versa. Just remember that the only opinion that matters is yours and love yourself just the way you are, even if you don't feel perfect!

WoW!! This is one tough question! How old are you?
I do know that growing up can be hard, especially in your teens.
I can speak from experience here and let you know that first?? it has to come from within. I am sure that there are days that you feel like "the ugly duckling"...it happens to us all. What you need to start doing is this: focus on the things you like about yourself. Take your face. Do you like the shape, or the complexion? How about your eyes?? or your mouth? Take what is good and use it to your advantage. If it is something that you want changed?? do so, but (again) focus on the good parts first. You can change your wardrobe, and you appearance...but there will always be only ONE YOU. Look deep inside and find the things you are happiest with, and work from that. Also, surround yourself with positive things and people. Smile alot, no matter what the issues around you are, and keep a positive attitude. People will flock to you, and next thing you know?? your self-image will have improved!

It begins by accepting yourself for who you are. make a list of your good points. know yourself. realize that you are who you were intended to be, and that is good enough. Don't worry about what other people think of you, because for everyone who does not like you, there will be 20 people who do. The more you just be yourself, the more you will realize your good points and traits. As you realize what you have to offer to others, they will also begin to realize it, which will also help your self image. But positive self image begins inside and learning to love yourself for who you are.

Only do things that make you happy, and learn to look upon yourself with a positive light. There is no magic cure for bad self esteem, you just need to appreciate the great things about yourself.

The most important thing to remember is that NOBODY IS PERFECT.
Not you, not me, not even actresses and supermodels.
Once you accept the fact that it is okay to have physical flaws, you can work to make the best with what you have.
Be healthy and be as smart as you can, and you will have the inner beauty that is attainable by anyone.
Even the most beautiful people get wrinkles and age, you can 't beat it, just accept it.
And finally, being beautiful is like being tall or smart, or rich. It is handy in life, but it does not automatically make you a better person.

Look at all your positive qualities- not just physical. Remind yourself of how many people aren't as understanding, loyal, helpful and loving as you are. Rememer that people subconsiously tell others how to treat them, so you MUST discover self-love if you want to attract people who will be positive additions to your life. Good luck!
