INFERIORITY COMPLEX
| |
 |
Inferiority complex is that attitude we display of lack of self-worth, uncertainty and doubt. A feeling of general inadequacy. Inferiority complex is a feeling that prevents you from taking risks and will limit your success potentials. Because whenever you have an idea in your head, you quickly discard it thinking I cannot do it, it will fail, I will be laughed at by friends etc. You become very sensitive and find no meaning to life because you are suffering from personality problem. You find yourself trying to please others in other to win approval. In life every human being has strengths and weaknesses. Know that its just a person like you that wants to make you feel bad. Anyone that condemns another is one that has inferiority complex. |

Our happiness should come from God and
not from a fellow human being. Most times
we think lack of material things like money,
latest fashion designs, intelligence and
wealthy friends make us less significant. God
created you in His own image whether you
are too big, fat, short or tall, you have no
reason whatsoever to feel less than other
people.
Remove negative thoughts about yourself
and think positively. Do not forget that every
human being is a prince or princess in his
own rights.
Do not move with people/friends that would
take advantage of your nature. Such people
try to put you down in other to make
themselves feel better. If you have friends that
are always criticizing you or complaining then you
don't need them in your life right now.
Move with friends that love you for who you are,
not minding whether you are well dressed or
not, you have the latest games or not, you are
intelligent or not. Be with friends that are
always ready to support you in good times and
bad times, friends that will always be by your
side forever.
Parents also need to take great care in
ensuring what they communicate to their
children by their attitude towards them.
Parents must understand that each individual
is different. They should not compare their child
with anyone. Let your child develop a sense of
self worth. Know your child's likes and dislikes
and encourage him or her to do what he likes.
You must not copy what another child does.
Spend time with your children and help them to
bear negative experience without getting
inferiority complex.
The Bible tells us that satan's psychological
weapon is in inferiority complex, which can
destroy our relationship with God and with
other people. Jesus said, "forget about
yourself", that is to say don't rely on yourself but
on God. In Exodus 3vs1, when God asked
Moses to go to Pharaoh, he felt inferior
because he stammers but eventually he
overcame it and led the Isrealites our of
Egypts. So the same God that did it for Moses
will also do it for you only if you accept and are
willing to let Him into your hearts.
