Why am I such a failure. I have few friends, I am clumsy, not good at sports, and overall sad. People, including my Mom, are always putting me down and treating me with disrespect. This is sad because I try to be really kind and I try my best at everything I do.
Please answer and tell me how I can make my life better.
Thanks

For starters, please try not to listen to others who are putting you down. They've convinced you not to expect anything more out of yourself than failure. There is always something that someone is good at. The key is surrounding yourself with people who can reflect a more accurate picture of yourself and finding positives about yourself. When you think of a positive, write it down. Keep a list to refer to when you feel down. There is power in positive thinking.

Aw, I'm sure you're not a failure. But anyway, even if you feel you are sliding in life then the best thing is to get out and try something new. :)
Who cares if you are not good at sports, maybe that's not your thing? And it's not really important to be good at it, just to have fun.
But maybe you should try another hobby, like something creative or something else. You may make new friends, this way.
A lot of people are cruel in the world but you should try talking to your mum and tell her to give you some more respect. Tell her that you are trying to be a good person and sometimes you need praise rather than hard words.
Good luck. I'm sure you're a really great person and it's so great that you are kind. Kudos and keep it up!

Tell your Mom how she is making you feel. You in return will feel better getting this out in the open with her. If you keep telling yourself you are a failure, you will find yourself failing at things and being clumbsy. The mind is a powerful thing. You need to retrain your mind for a more positive way of thinking about yourself by getting up in the morning, and saying, "this is a good day! I feel great!" Keep doing that. It's really sad because we tend to believe more of the negetive things about ourselves rather than believing we are worthy of this life, and have purpose. So many harsh words are said througout our lifetime that brings most of us down, and makes us feel badly about ourselves. Words can only hurt you if you let them. Do you understand? Surround yourself with a happy environment, and be happy yourself. You get out of life what you put into it. When those around us are trying to bring us down, or step on us, we must grab our strength and rise above it, because you know you are better than that. Don't lose your kindness. That is what's going to help you and soon the kindness you have shown, and will be showing others, will come back to you 10 times fold. And for those negetive people, the same will happen to them. Negetive energy will surround them, and they will get no where. Stay strong. Keep your head high because you are worthy of this life, and you deserve to have all the good it has to offer. You can start making your life better by not accepting those negetive words, and block them out. You can also start by telling yourself positive things. You can also start by going places that have a positive environment. Best wishes to you.

I wish I could show you the future. You are going to be a great person as an adult because you know what it's like to be treated poorly. You won't treat other people badly, because you know what it's like. Think about the number of people, thousands, whose lives are going to be better because what you've had to go through.

Everything you do creates an energy, positive or negative. As long as you keep sending out the positive energy, that will come back to you. Negative energy is like a vaccuum and will ruin in a few seconds what takes a long time to build.
Keep the negative energy out of your life. Stay positive, upbeat, and hopeful for the best, and all of the good things will gravitate towards you.

Your life in the future is going to be great, as long as you learn from these experiences that life is handing you - lemons, if you will. You know this, when life hands you lemons, make lemon bars. Or like I do - when life gives me a lemon, I squeeze it into my coke. That way I get all the good stuff out of it, and I throw the peel away - don't need it.

everyone fails, everyone feels like a failure, its normal. If your mom is putting you down, just tell her that you dont like it, or that it hurts when she says things like that, my mom would feel terrible if i told her that. The only person who you need to worry about is yourself! If you are trying your best then there isnt anything more you can do, if people dont like your best then that is their problem, the only thing that matters is how you think about yourself. Stay confident and be happy, everyone is good at something you just have to find that thing and focus on it.

In this world, everything is balanced, for every popular person, there is a loner. thats what makes our world balanced.

First you have to have confidence in yourself, if u think you are a failure, your doomed to be a failure for the rest of your life.

Just be who you are, keep on treating people nice and try best at everything you do and eventually, good things will come to you.

And about your mom, talk to her bout it, tell u u want to be treated with respect and dignity.

good luck in all,
Tod
