I grew up feeling inferior to my biggger sister who was often praised by my parents for her many musical talents. I never felt good enough and always had lowered self esteem.
Over time I came to the realization that I am a good person all by myself without comparison.
Also, I found out that I am a better writer than my sister. And, now I am praised by my parents and peers for my writing.
Now, my personal mantra that I chant to myself whenever I get criticism from others is or feel inferior is, "Let Jamilla, be Jamilla". And, really this means, accept yourself for who you are.
If you would like to use my mantra, you should swap out my name for your own.
It helps to remember that you are a truly unique person, no one else like you on the planet, never has been and never will be.
And, you have such unique gifts to share with the world and those around you.
This is my mantra that helps me make it through the day. What is yours?
When I'm stressed, I tell myself to chill out and not worry so much. I say it often enough until I believe it.
Repeating the mantra is important as sometimes your brain is not listening the first time you say it.When I'm stressed, I tell myself to chill out and not worry so much. I say it often enough until I believe it.

I don't have a specific mantra to use for stressful times. I just take a deep breath and remind myself that I'm luckier than most to be alive and healthy in a really great area surrounded by friends and family. And, that helps me get through tense moments.I don't have a specific mantra to use for stressful times.

Yes, I took it from The Beatles song "Let it be", and I always say that to me, because the world is so depressing when some people kill other people just because they are not like them or don't think like them or just because they don't believe in their religion, so when I see that I want to say that people that they have to "Let be" the other people, we need tolerance, all we need is love!Yes, I took it from The Beatles song "Let it be", and I always say that to me, because the world is so depressing when some people kill other people just because they are not like them or don't think like them or just because they don't believe in their religion, so when I see that I want to say that people that they have to "Let be" the other people, we need tolerance, all we need is love!
My popular mantra is 'I have potentials' and this has made me feel better about myself and has taken my confidence to a higher level. I don't think that I am inferior to anyone no matter the situation that presents itself.My popular mantra is 'I have potentials' and this has made me feel better about myself and has taken my confidence to a higher level.
