10 Ways to Build Self-Confidence


Confidence is a great tool which can make your life easier.
I’ve given you 10 ways which will help you  to grow your confidence (it worked for me :) :) :) ).

1. Personal development is a great thing, so sign up for a course/workshop and enjoy it.

2. Go to a networking event and focus on meeting people rather worry about what people will think about you. I know it's not easy. Practise!!!!

3. When you are at a social event, don’t just stick with the people you know but go and have a conversation with someone you don’t know. I know it sounds difficult but believe me it needs practise.

4. Do one thing that makes you smile each day.  

5. Are you scared of looking stupid in front of other people?? You and everyone else. It’s not a big thing so don’t let it stop you. Say: “It doesn’t matter.” After all who really cares???? No-one!!!!

6. If there’s someone in your life who puts you down or makes you feel small, you own it to yourself to let them know that you expect something different from now on. Mark Twain said: “Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that but the really great make you believe you too, can become great.”

7. When you feel you want shout “I deserve better than this!” take a step back and say “I can BE better than this. ” Be the Change you wish to see in the World. ~ Gandhi

8. Confidence sometimes means admitting you’re wrong. Take always responsibility about your actions and words.

9. Keep telling yourself that you ARE confident. Say it enough times, and frequently enough and your subconscious will make you start believing it’s true. The more you believe it’s true, the more it turns into the truth.

10. Learn to say “No” It’s better politely to decline a request rather than bring yourself in to difficult position.

    1. @10 It is hard to say "no". At least, how can it sound politely?

      1. well, you can say something like " I would like to help you but unfortunately I cannot". Don't use the work "no" but say it with different words. :):):):):)
