4 Zodiac Signs Struggling With Self-Encouragement

You need to believe in yourself if you want to achieve your wildest dreams. Self-doubt is natural, but if you let it get out of hand, it can completely destroy your confidence and your drive to keep going. Here are the zodiacs who struggle with self-encouragement, even though they have what it takes to do whatever their heart desires:

Taurus

Even though you’re the first person who will cheer friends on when they’re trying to reach a certain goal, you struggle with self-encouragement. You aren’t able to give yourself the same type of kindness and support that you give everyone else. And that needs to change soon. You need to start showing up for yourself the way you show up for others. You need to start believing in your own talents and strength because you can handle this. You can thrive at this. You just need a little more faith in yourself.

Gemini

You struggle with self-encouragement because you have failed before, and that’s what you keep focusing on. You keep thinking about all the times when success was so close you could taste it, but then you fell short and ended up disappointed. Since you don’t want to go through that type of pain again, sometimes you convince yourself that there’s no point in trying at all. But that’s not true. Failure is inevitable, especially when you’re trying to achieve such a big goal. It doesn’t matter how long it takes you to reach this dream. What matters is that you refuse to give up. If this is what you really want, you can’t hang up your coat yet. You need to give yourself another chance, and another, and another.

Scorpio

You struggle with self-encouragement because you’re a realist. You’re trying to look at the situation logically, and logically, there’s a good chance you’re going to fail. But sometimes, you need to ignore the statistics and do what your heart wants anyway. If your friend was trying to reach a difficult dream, would you burst their bubble by saying it was impossible? Or would you encourage them to try their hardest anyway, to see what they could achieve? If you comfortably encourage your friends to keep going, you should do the same for yourself. Believe that you have a chance, because you do.

Virgo

Even though you are one of the hardest workers in the zodiac, you struggle with self-encouragement. There are moments when you debate giving up on your dreams because you aren’t sure whether all of your effort is ever going to pay off, or whether you are only wasting your time and fooling yourself. Remember, it’s okay to have these doubts. It’s okay to question the path you’re on. Everyone else does the same, even though they might not speak about it aloud. But if this is what you really want to do, then you shouldn’t give up on yourself. Keep going, even when your hope is dwindling, because you could surprise yourself. You could end up with everything you’ve ever wanted.
