• I keep wanting to do things for other people than for myself.
  

  I have to leave for a while but I’ll be back in a few hours. Think about it.

  Like I said, it’s not easy.
  
  And no one can really tell you how to do it, you need to figure out for yourself what you want to be like.
  
  What kind of person do YOU want to be?

  Oh, and here’s the big secret to being confident:
  
  Here it comes, drum roll please…
  
  Fake it!!
  
  I’m absolutely serious. Just fake it. I used to be the most insecure person you’ve ever met, and one day, i just decided to stop. So I faked being confident and secure. It was really hard, and life sucked for about two years while I was going through my self-transformation. Then one day, I don’t know how it happened, but I didn’t hate myself anymore. I still have those days where I relapse a bit, but most of the time I am fine. It’s a lot of work, but it was so worth it. Just try it.

  Yes, some people do make friends more easily than you.
  And yes, some people have more successful careers than you.
  
  I hate to sound blunt, but there will ALWAYS be someone that’s richer, smarter, or more popular than you or me. It’s just a fact of life.
  
  But the good news is, we can use this to our advantage. When someone comes along that seems better than you at something, instead of wallowing in self-pity, try to learn from them. Pick up the little things that make them the way they are, and try to immitate that.
  
  *Note: be careful not to pick one person and copy everything about them, just take a few of their best qualities and twist them so that they’re your own. This takes practice.

  Well you need to stop thinking that right now. Jealousy is an awful thing and will eat away at you until it drives you crazy.
  
  If you get into volunteering again, you could meet others who are just as eager to help as you are. You sound like a bit of an introvert (I don’t really know you so I apoligize if I’m incorrect) so I believe that meeting and working with people that you share things in common with could get you out of your shell and help you realize what you really like about yourself.
