I wanna builda pc but ive been hearing this a lot, i saw a lot vids that you should ground yourself to be sure you dont have any static shock in your body but in my country we dont have grounding in our homes.. and my case is all colored so the main question is how do i ground my self or be safe from this static thing.

Put yourself in a corner and deny yourself things you want...

Ground is a bit of a misnomer, you are actually eliminating the potential voltage between yourself and the system you are building. So, in such a case, you will ground yourself to the chassis. Paint is rarely an issue. You can always find an area that won't be seen and remove some of the paint.

Really grounding straps are not strictly necessary. As long as you make sure to touch large metal components constantly you should be fine.

1) The outside of an anti-static bag is rarely anti-static, so touch the inside of the bag during removal
2) When you remove a component, touch the chassis before touching the component to any part of the chassis
3) Any time you walk away...

3) Any time you walk away, touch the chassis before handling any components inside the chassis

If you pay attention, you will notice this pretty much happens during construction.
