Having confidence in yourself is hard for some men
, especially if they have been criticized or “put down” in the past. Sometimes, the hurtful remarks are unjustified, but maybe it is time to take a look at whether they are warranted, especially if you are unable to be successful with women. Don't call yourself a failure; that is a self-fulfilling prophecy. Instead, think about your positive attributes and emphasize them. If you do some honest soul-searching and decide you want to correct some faults, you can make the commitment to have more faith in your abilities. This will promote an attitude of self-confidence that is very appealing to women.
