Boost Your Self Confidence

Boost Your Self Confidence

Confidence is a tool we can use in our everyday life. This manage our fears and make us able to do more of the things that really matters. We lack confidence because of our fear.

But we didn't realise that our self-confidence works just like a muscle – it grows in a response to the level of performance required of it.  Either we use it or lose it. 

That’s why I’ve listed few ways to grow our confidence so that we can become successful .

  • Learning is a good thing, so sign up for work on developing the skills you need to win at the things that matter to you.

  • Hit the gym.  The physiological effects will leave you feeling great.

  • Go to a networking event and focus on how you can be helpful to other people rather than being nervous about your own stuff.

  • Look at a great win or success you’ve experienced and give yourself credit for your part in it.  Recognising your achievements is not egotistical, it’s healthy.

  • At a social event, don’t just stick with the people you know – go and have a conversation with someone you don’t know and you never know what – or who – you’ll discover.

  • Do one thing each day that makes you smile (on the inside or on the outside).

  • Stop Overthinking.

  • Flirt.  It’s a harmless way to play around with connecting with people and having fun.

  • Trust your instincts.  They know what they’re talking about.

  • Fear is a way of letting you know that you’re about to stretch yourself and grow your confidence.  That’s a good thing, so use it to take yourself forwards rather than run away.

  • Don’t feel like you have to do everything yourself – sometimes the most confident thing to do is ask for help.

  • Take a chance on something tomorrow.  Anything, big or small, just take a chance.

  • You need to be around people who make you feel like YOU, so spend more time with the people who support and encourage you and less with those who undermine you.

  • Forget the pro’s and con’s – do something bold in the face of your challenges and fears.

  • Don’t try to validate yourself through comparison – you’re just peachy as you are.

  • If there’s something you’ve been struggling to understand for a while, stop trying to understand it.  Accept it just as it is, fully and wholly.

  • As environment directly impacts your self-perception, so if you’re surrounded by clutter, paperwork and rubbish put a morning aside to clean up your stuff and get organised.

  • Know your priorities list out them and work on accordingly.

  • Being confident is an ongoing process.  It isn't a goal or an end-point that you reach and then stop.  Keep playing to the best of your ability and your confidence will always be there to support you.

  • Try a new path.  The well-trodden paths of your life can easily turn from familiarity to apathy and disconnection.  A new path wakes you up.

  • Don't say 'Yes' to taking on a task simply because you don't want to rock the boat – you can politely decline requests you can't meet and don't need to create an excuse for it.

  • Look at the people you respect who seem confident – don’t copy them, but identify what it is they do differently that conveys confidence and what you can learn from it.

  • Dress Sharp as clothes ceratinly affect the way you feel about yourself.

  • Walk faster even if you are not in hurry as it make to you look and feel more important.

  • According to me don't listen motivational speeches but list your streangths and goals on papaer even if it small and recite in front of mirror aloud.

  • Compliment people it will make you different from others.

  • Don't only think positive but you need to act positive as well because actions are the key to developing self confidence.

Beauty begins the moment you decide to BE YOURSELF.
