How To Get Rid Of Inferiority Complex
There are times when even the biggest egos in the world suffer from an inferiority complex. It’s one of those things that humans seem pre-programmed to do. Much like the grass always being greener elsewhere, we often see ourselves in the worst possible light. Everyone else around us is better and that sows the seeds of our inferiority complex.
So, what can you do to get rid of an inferiority complex?
Start by working out whether it’s you that’s putting yourself down or whether it’s the people you’re mixing with. That way you’ll begin to get a handle on your inferiority complex.
Chances are that most of the inferiority complex feeling is coming from you. Other people are generally too worried about what still other people are thinking of them to be in the least bit worried about thinking about you.
Sure, back at school it may have been the case that you were taunted but that happens to almost anyone at school. The trouble is that memory stays with us far longer than the sound of the words.
Next, work out what is the cause of your perceived inferiority. It’s unlikely to be all of you…
It could be that you’re comparing yourself with the high end of whatever the inferiority problem is. So if you’re used to watching adult films, those spam emails saying you’re not up to scratch will likely strike a chord and give you a complex about either the size of your appendages or your stamina or both.
Or you could spend time comparing your wit against the top comedians on television. Not caring for the fact that the shows you see are rehearsed and often heavily edited.
Whatever the source of your inferiority, analyze it in the cold light of day. Chances are if you actually take the time to do this with your supposed inferiority, you’ll chip away at its edges. Dissect the area into smaller and smaller pieces until you find some that you’re actually superior in.
Another option is to decide “so what”. We can’t all run four minute miles or travel to space. Put your focus on areas where you do excel – there will be some if you take the time to think about them, even if your initial reaction is that you’re the worst at absolutely everything on the planet.
If none of those options work, take a look at using hypnosis to sort out your inferiority complex. The success rate is high because it delves into the recesses of your mind where this kind of problem loves to hide. But once our fears are confronted they tend to run away. And hypnosis can help encourage them to dissolve – give it a go!
