If there are any mistakes,repetitions or if something grates on your ear, pleeaase correct it! Part1 “ I’d rather put on this grey baggy sweater and black pants. Don’t want to stand out”. “I won’t even try to take part in this contestant, I won’t win anyway, the rest is much smarter”. Or even “ I’d better not say anything, anyway nobody cares about my opinion, it will only irritate”. This are symptoms of the horrible illness called “Self-doubt”, which hit me severely, when I was at school. It contributed(?) my timidy, sensibility, fear to take decisions and to express my opinion, complexes and low-rating. As a result I had an only “great” company of gossips and moaners. Though I cared too much about others people opinion and decided to leave everything as it was. Nightmare. Not the most pleasant memories in my life. But I couldn’t stand anymore, I felt that I should change it and the faster the better. So one day, I collected all my courage that I had, came to my classmate, explained that I had left my company and actually asked to be my friend. I liked her, she wasn’t effected by others people opinion, did what she wanted to do, and said what she wanted. I was afraid at that moment. I was sure she wouldn’t agree. But to my great surprise she accepted me easily and told me : “Finally you did it, I don’t understand what did you do there”. We are still best friends now. Though I was glad to have a new friend , I still wasn’t confident enough to stand out or to express my opinion, I still thought the rest was against me, gossip about me and judge me. And I wanted the most was to independent. And I succeed .
