Instant Confidence Boosting Steps that Everyone can put into Practice!
- Smile a lot more. That doesn’t mean putting a silly grin on your face! But smile when you walk down the street, when you meet people and generally be happier even if you’re not feeling that way.
- Buy yourself some new clothes, get your hair done, and treat yourself to something new. It will make you feel better and will give your ego a boost.
- Play to your strengths. Know what you are good at and expose yourself to these opportunities at every opportunity because you’re good at it, you’ll enjoy it and have more confidence.
- Improve your weaknesses. Know and appreciate what these are and put a plan in place to improve them over time.
- Be positive. Look on the “can do” side of things rather than the “can’t do”. You’ve accomplished lots in your life and you will accomplish lots more in the future.
- Whenever you feel a negative thought coming: STOP, THINK and ASK “Is this really important in the grand scheme of things?’ A lot of the time it isn’t. Many people in life major in minor things!
- Be appreciative of what you have to be thankful for in your life right now. Who do you love? Who loves you? Who do you help out?
- You only live once, so any time that you are down just ask yourself in 10 or 20 years time – will what I am worrying about really matter?
- Pamper Yourself – Take care of your body with makeovers, nails, new hair, and new styles – ask your friends for tips that will make you feel better about you.
- Treat Yourself Better – Are you eating, sleeping and exercising enough?
