One Thing You Need to Believe in Order to Make Friends

By , About.com GuideAugust 6, 2012

Follow me on:

Making friends isn't that difficult when it's all said and done, but you do need to believe that you are worthy of having friends. For some, this is a no-brainer. But for others, people who have been hurt in life by people they loved or folks who have been betrayed, this concept gets a little more difficult.

If you think this is ridiculous advice, good for you. You have an inherent belief that you're worthy of good people in your life.

If you have a hard time, even on some subconscious level, that you're not worthy of having good friends in your life, well, that needs to change. Today. But know this, you aren't alone. Many people feel just like you do. The other good news? You can change this negative belief and build your self-esteem.

If you're wondering what the big deal is, here's how lack of self-esteem can affect friendship, with some tips on what you can do about it.
