INFERIORITY COMPLEX

In laymen terms, inferiority complex is a feeling that one is inferior to others in some way. Such a feeling can arise from an imagined oractual inferiority in the afflicted person. It is often subconscious and thought to drive afflicted individuals to overcompensate, resulting either in spectacular achievement or extreme antisocial behavior or both.

Unlike a normal feeling of inferiority, which can act as an incentive for achievement, an inferiority complex is an advanced state of discouragement, often resulting in a retreat from difficulties. Another term for having this syndrome is known as low SELF ESTEEM.

Many of us suffers this phase at one point or another. Those with inferiority complex are more likely to be miserable, unhappy, ill-tempered and argumentable. They are ones who always feel rejected, unloved and useless. The confidence level is way down hell and attention span is wayover heaven. Extremes, right?


  • So what could be the reason?
  • Would it be how you were raised by your parents?
  • Could it be how successful your friends are now?
  • Was it because you were dumped by your EX?
  • Was it because you thought all along that you will be promoted but you were not? Or
  • would it be for a fact that you just feel that you are NOT GOOD ENOUGH?

Whatever the reason is, we need to overcome it without delay.

In the next article, I will be sharing with you the easy ways to overcome inferiority complex once and for all.
