Well, there's lots of ways. But how about stop focusing on material things? There are people starving all over the world...meanwhile half of America is worrying about their weight, the size of their house e.t.c.

There's poverty all over the place...people with disease and illnesses...bringing new lives into a very unhopeful world.


Start being thankful instead of vain. To have a home on a cold stormy night, to have friends, a family that loves you, and so much more.

Good Luck!

Liking yourself is different from being vain. Being vain is more of how others perceive you than how you perceive yourself. It's okay and actually very good to love yourself. It's when you start bragging and showing off that you become vain. Other people get really irritated by this. A lot of times people that act vain do it for one of two reasons. Attention is one of them. If someone doesn't get enough attention at home or have low self confidence, they may feel that they need to be vain in order to get what they are lacking. Another reason is because you are trying to be confident or extroverted, which are good traits. You can be confident, extroverted, and love yourself without being vain. I would say in order to stop being vain you would have to make a very conscious effort to stop bragging about yourself and showing off. Other people don't want to hear about how wonderful you are, they already know that! Tell them how wonderful they are, because not everyone has a lot of self confidence and you are bringing other people down by being vain. If you are nice to people and put them above yourself in their eyes they won't think that you're vain anymore and will be nice to you and compliment you back. So, in this way, they'll get compliments from you and you'll get compliments from them, it's a win win situation! I hope I helped and good luck.
